Policy Question 

I don't understand the policy for asking for reps

Can I make a thread asking for reps in exchange for bytes?
Idc about rep, but just need it for r00t upgrade.
As that's basically an exchange, yes, you'll be fine. Members use this forum so put a thread out there.

It was a blast being on staff. I stepped down as it's time for me to move on. I wish you all the best and if you were hit by my warnings and/or bans, it was nothing personal.

Peace out!
Yes you can go for it now with the new changes in the policy.

Not sure if it stands for that section in particular, but hinting or requesting free reps in exchange for a giveaway is not allowed.

I mean you quoted a post by a staff member so I'm assuming he knows what he's talking about

That only applies for this section per section rules.

Staff are only human and get things wrong quiet a bit, Omni does occasionally correct them.

Anyway, nothing wrong with challenging a staff member's answer if you think there is an issue with it or he is forgetting something.

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure it also counts for the Member Contests section, don't recall seeing it as a sectional rule there though?

Nobody would post such thread in Member Contests anyway, no point of applying it there, it'd be moved to freebies section, and if violates any of the rules there, junked. This is a direct small exchange and should be in marketplace as you can see most of threads related to one OP's looking to post. 😉

Also, to be sure, is my user-title allowed?

We don't have rules against that.

OK. Thanks for clearing it all up 👍

No, it is highly disallowed and would lead to a insta 20 year ban.
But I won't report if you give me all your bytes. 😊

Hehe. Trying to be a good boy considering my current warning level.
Alright, this looks like it has been sorted. If you have any further questions, shoot me a PM.

Cheers.
