Various questions

I have been compiling a catalog of Christian regions. I hope to also compile lists of regions dedicated to other religions, and make the catalog multi-denominational.

1. Once the list is multi-denominational, is there a chance I can get the catalog stickied?

2. Until it gets stickied, how often can I bump the topic so people will see it?

3. If I send a whole bunch of form letters to the Founder or Delegate of regions for potential listings, will it be considered SPAM?

thanks for your help.

1) No. This game is about politics, not just religion, Why should your list be stickied? Post it in Gameplay and if enough people are interested, it will stay on the front page. Otherwise, it'll die like any other thread.

2) If you have to bump it, it's not interesting enough.

3) That would be spam.

good point. But I thought it too overwhelming to categorize all of the regions according to their political leanings. Religion is a line more easily drawn, and certainly affects a person's politics. I thought it would qualify as a valid parameter.

How about if it was a catalog of Peaceful regions? (not invaders or defenders). Might that qualify?

Post it in Gameplay and if enough people are interested, it will stay on the front page. Otherwise, it'll die like any other thread

2) If you have to bump it, it's not interesting enough.

with all due respect, since views don't bump a topic, even if people are using it, it wouldn't stay bumped. And since a catalog listing requires no more response than a phone book, then you can't say just because it isn't getting replies it isn't interesting or useful.[/quote]

3) That would be spam.

What about if I only sent out ten a week? (i'm trying to determine if its the 'form letter' part or the 'whole bunch' part that makes it SPAM)

sorry to be a pain.
