It should be fine as long as you fulfil the contest also make sure you bold any changes.

If you have any other questions feel free to message me.

Happy New Years!

What about changing the prize amount of something like that? Surely that's not allowed? But changing some parts is alright but other parts not?

Prize changing would be a no no.
Thinking about it now, I don't think you should change anything at all, it will only lead to confusion.

It shouldn't be allowed and members should be punished for editing it.

Is it allowed for a user to just change the contest terms whenever he/she feels like? For example, making the maximum posts until a reward is given from 100 to 300 as an example or extending the end date or stuff like that?

Tiszy was different. He had it 100 and he would get vouches and stuff. Now you expect him to give all those prizes for under 100 posts? Usually I'd day it's not allowed but he started a kinda new contest. He mentioned he had staff permission for the first time and I think it was just a bit of a confusion. Hence forcing him to keep the contest open and do it under 100 posts when I believe the first thread wasn't entirely his fault would be a bit unfair. It's a new thread and a new thing.

That's my OPINION on Tiszy's contest. Normally it shouldn't be allowed but he didn't predict this it seems.

I personally think a small change should be allowed, say up to 20% of original contest terms or something to be fair.

Let's say a person offers 50 dollars as a contest and for only for the first 100 people that post.
Perhaps he had slightly less money than what he though or the thread was getting too little or too much attention; I don't see a HUGE problem if the money becomes 40$ or the spots change from 100 people to 80 people or 120 people.

Obviously a percentage rule like this could complicated things, but I think this would be a fair way to do something.
My second choice would be completely immutable requirements; everything stays the same (get all your contest terms right before posting in the giveaways).

He's not fulfilling what he originally mentioned do this wouldn't be okay, it'd be against the rules and policies.

Tiszy hasn't changed a prize at all, big thumbs up to him for keeping his word. He did, however, change how many posts are required before the contest closes.

[‌‌Tommy]

He just ended it. lol .___. Guess you can close this now.

That contest isn't the only one that's changed there end date recently.

[‌‌Tommy]

This is wrong and they should be punished for this.

I agree. If people are allowed to extend the end date of a contest then you'll see allot of people that can't fulfil a contest abusing that to avoid getting punished.

Then people will forgot about the contest being hosted because it was extended for so long.

This should not be allowed. What stops people from going from 100 to 2000?
It should not be allowed. I generally think that those contests are low quality, because it forces people to post on it to reach a certain amount.

[Desiderius]

No, fake contests can get you banned; Omni has said this before.
