New contest rules will be added from time to time whenever the staffs see's fit, so please check this from time to time to see if anything has been added.
1. No trading in here, this is not an auction place.
2. All contests should be held in here. Any fake and scamming contests will get you permanently banned from the forums and the RPG.
3. Before you hold a contest, make sure you link your account. And a tip to those entering a contest, make sure to see if the person holding the contest has their account linked yet or not and if they actually have the Pokemon to save yourself some time.
4. Only make contests that are fair for everyone. Anything less would be considered a scam and you will be banned.
5. Do not make contests that links to other sites/communities/games. To clarify for some who are not understanding, this means no 'referral' contests or any contests requiring signups to other sites for prizes.
6. Hold contests on TPPC, either on the forums here or in the chatrooms, do not take it to other sites/chatrooms/communities and especially not through other instant messaging programs such as msn or AIM.
7. Posting of images not created by you is copyright theft, so do not submit them for any contests. Just altering images that are or aren't Pokemon but actual creation by someone else is called plagiarism and also should not be used. Both of the aforementioned and anything else close to those are a form of scam and will get you permanently banned from both the RPG and Forums.
8. Do NOT make contests simply to get the rate on something. It is constantly said that there is not a set value on ANYTHING. All contests looking for rates are the same as any other rate thread in trades and will be locked now.
9. I've been getting a lot of messages from members that want to hold contest(s) with legendary dogs or other non-tradable Pokemon as the prize and require a transfer to do so. The general answer is no due to the possibility of lies and abuse that can come of this. Unless you can get a SuperModerator to be the judge of your contest and pick the winner, we will not transfer for you.
10. Contests that require participants to donate Pokemon are allowed. Make sure that the contest holder actually has the prize though.
11. Do not cheat in a contest to win. This means any form of dishonesty or attempts at cheating someone out of a prize they earned.
You are not allowed to use images from Arkeis or any other site like it without giving proper credit.
I don't care if it's for signatures or what.
Give credit where credit is due or you'll be facing the penalties.
