Umm, I have a question about off-board advertisements. My thread was closed (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=10774430#post10774430), however, in the rules, I couldn't find that off-board advertisements are "illegal" and if they are, what are the requirements for them not to be. I assume there are requirements because my friends thread wasn't closed, and a few people said his thread might be okay. So then if this is so, what are needed in an off-board advertisement legal to stay in International Incidents? My friend's thread is this - http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=10774876#post10774876
I telegramed Euroslavia this question, however, he hasn't responded.

Advertisements: For the most part, advertising threads are not allowed in NationStates. If you really want an ad here, contact the Jolt Admins, and purchase banner space. Til then, it isn't a good idea to try and advertise your forum on Max Barry's forum. If your advertisement involves itself along side NationStates, it is allowed (such as the GDP Calculators, and region ads in Gameplay), but advertisements, such as one that promotes your own forum for debate over the General forum, as well as an advertisement for a seperate roleplay forum (That does not involve NS; an example would be a World War 2 RP) within the Nationstates and International Incidents forums, are not allowed here, and will be locked.
In short, just as long as it has something to do with Nationstates, it is allowed, but trying to pimp your own forum on Max's website will not be tolerated.
Telegramming us is the worst way to go -- if it goes to the GHP, any number of us can pick it up. If the mod you tgram is away, it will go unanswered... and some of us don't do 'work' from our private telegrams.
