Very important! When you vote, write a couple words about it to show me Why you voted what you voted!


Diablo II - Free giveaway banned from trading grounds ? ^_^

The answer to the poll is listed below anyway, dunno why I put a second option there, when events clearly arent effective when it comes to giving away free items!

Just a heads up for future references, next time you do a free give away, make sure you use My Events!

Thanks


Well. there are noone watching events anymore. Sorry.
1. Noone is using it. You might wanna check yourself. 2x Diablo 2 events in total!
2. Maybe you should add a Free give away for each trading ground.



So yeah, I want to suggest a free giveaway for each of the trading grounds! Before people start getting warned for giving away free items to help others....

:bonk:

I once would have voted yes to this because it sucks not having a giveaway get the attention it needs to be effective at all

BUT. I've come to realize over time that this type of sub-forum or exception to the rules, would certainly increase spam, flaming, drama, big time.... Mostly spam, and people +1'ing for post count.

I certainly agree that My Events is quite un-effective and has alot of issues, the biggest one being it's quite inactive.. Njaguar has made a statement in the past inside a Site Suggestion about My Events saying "you think its inactive because you dont use it", and while this is logically true, there's also logic behind why it's not used by many people at all.

I vote no because topics for this stuff is a bad idea due to the time their up, they can't be closed by the author, and they're often spammed. Overall alot of drama over them

However I would certainly love to see suggestions come up improving the use of My Events! :)

Tell me please, how does this increase spam.

I dont think its spam giving away free items.

It would most likely be like this, christmas giveaway., All year!

If you're scared of spam, let only higher members post. And we'll have to pm one who is online every time we give away free items

Yes.
It would make things much easier when wanting to get rid of something.
Events is quite dead and it's just so much easier to throw items to Charsi instead of giving them to ppl who might actually find some use for them.
At least sticky-kind-of-thing there was at Xmas would be good to be there year-round.
