Hey Tenno!
Just wanted to post this note here to clear up some recurring confusion over the eligibility of “bump” posts in Clan and Alliance recruitment threads.
To begin, please refer to our community guidelines, specifically section 2, the Quality standards:
2) QUALITY STANDARDS – Use our forums to talk to us and talk to each other in a constructive and respectful way that encourages interaction and thoughtful discussion. Stay on-topic, be constructive and use descriptive Topic titles. Don’t rage/rant post, name and shame, have misleading topic titles, post spam, advertisements, unreleased Design Council information, pornography or any other inappropriate, offensive or irrelevant content to the Forums in text, image, or video form. We will delete/edit it, and there will be consequences as per our warnings.
As you can see in this guideline, we do not allow users to post spam or spam advertisements in the forums. This means that simply posting “bump” or similar contextless/contentless messages in recruit threads to make your recruit posts appear at the top of the “Recent” filter defies this guidelines.
You are always free to post new information/updates about your Clan or Alliance, things like events you are running, altered goals/objectives of your clan, etc. This is considered an appropriate and valuable way to recruit. As a bonus, it informs potential recruits of your Clan/Alliance's activity.
Please keep this in mind when posting and updating threads in this sub-forum in the future, and if you see others defying this guideline, please use the “Report” feature to make the moderation team aware.
Thanks Tenno!
