As we all well know one of the strategies for a new store, supermarket(ect) to gain more prestige commercials are made to help get people (there are other methods as well).

I've made some of my own Store Front Adds such as allerting those when a sale/discount is going on and when it ends (and includes a select choice of items within my store front) within I.I.

I've known that Reagonal (I'm iffy about Galaxy adds such as "Clame your Reagons" bla bla bla type threads on where they belong) adds are only suppose to be put up in Gameplay, but I haven't noticed any rule or suggestion as to where Store Front adds are suppose to be put up. Assuming that since store fronts are located in I.I., when I did post up an add it was in I.I.


My question(s) are:

1) Are they suppose to be put up in I.I.?
2) Considering my S.F.'s fame as a FT store front, I was considering to "endorse" other store fronts or creating a "Store Front Add" type of page in I.I. Would this be allowed?

Explain to me why this needs a separate thread in the first place. Can't you just post your ad to your current storefront?

Better use small words, 'cause I don't get it.

Some people just don't like to read everything that's on the SF (A. Takes up time B. Lazy bums ;)).

Example: There are 6 pages, and the advertisement is on the 5th page.
A 7th page comes along, and some people just don't want to read what came before.

It's easier to make a separate thread for the add because people tend to notice it more. My only concern is that it may start to be considered spam.

Help any?

Let me see if I get this...

You want to advertise a non-roleplaying thread in a role-playing forum by placing another non-roleplayed thread that will have little more to it than daily bumps?

Absolutely not.

Put the ad in your signature or on the front page of your storefront.
