[Jaka_Lah]

Can you tell us his name ?

Why should he? can't you understand that some things are meant to be private?

Private ? I'm not asking him his GF name

The name is irrelevant, if the person made use of Argonath networks in any way to distribute the information of another server they will be punished.

Whether or not this "player" was banned for advertising over other networks is history. It's pointless to dig it up.

So peoples are advertising other servers because they are thinking that no one likes argonath rpg rs5 ?

One guy got banned for advertising his server to Argonath players via Facebook or Skype.

It all depends from case to case. We are not disallowing friends to not talk about specific servers. We are not that stupid.

Case 1:
"Man, come and check out this cool server i found, it's called <name> and the IP is <name>".

You wouldn't get banned for that. We can't control what you and your friends are talking about or doing.


Case 2 (Spamming people on Skype / Facebook which he got through Argonath):
"I have started up this server called <name>. The IP is <IP>, join it and get admin level 1337 rights and 1337 billions of money!!!".

This is clear advertising which is benefitting from Argonath. If we recieve proof of something similar to this and we can verify it in some way, we will take actions and eventually ban the advertiser.

Isn't that the "you're no longer welcomed in Argonath"? I also doubt it will not result in a ban, according to past bans.

How private is that?

There's no need to point fingers by stating names, it just should be an prime example of how to not act.

When this topic was first made, it should have been made locked.

Agree.


So,at last we are concluding that Advertising other servers(Even Name) on Argonath would lead to punishments.Other than that,advertising on Social Websites won't.

Then,if you want to Advertise YOUR/SOMEONE Server..Why take the risk?
Add the friend on a Social Web and tell him/her the informations about the other server.

Both,you and the Community your freind is playing in would be happy.

This topic should be lock since it's not YOUR PERSONAL OPINION but a rule that should be abided.

I do realise this is the SA:MP RPG board and the topic is about RS5, but I also recently seen some people trying to advertise their servers on stunt. Again, this is not allowed and you will also be punished there if you're found doing so.

[Petarda]

Can you tell us his name ?

No, since I don't remember it, but I can tell you that he and you(?) advertised your funny server.

  Now, being on the topic more or less, regarding advertising other Argonath servers on.. any other Argonath server: Is it allowed or prohibited?
   Some admins warn/punish for that, some admins not. My question is, could we advertise other Argonath servers on other Argonath servers?
   Example:
   <Advertisement on the RS5 server>
   ''/ad [r]Argonath Stunt | [.b]Grand Cops vs. Robbers Event | [y]Starting soon!'''
   

[eymas]

For as long as it isn't with malicious intent.

An advertisement explaining a Cops 'n Robbers event at the Stunt server is allowed, but simply screaming "COME TO STUNT WE HAVE BETTER EVENTS AND BIGGER PRIZES" would be different.

How about implementing a system where you can't introduce an IP address in any chat?
