Ok so I had this idea of creating a giveaway for something on the J&H store, the only difference would be that in this giveaway I could raise the money needed by using something like ad-fly by providing a download link to something such as a texture pack, I've seen this done successfully before on other servers but I was wondering if it would be permitted here due the the rules... " ~Selling & Giveaways~ You are allowed to host giveaways and contests with prizes on the server/forums/teamspeak, but it must be related to minecraft. Scamming, making fake giveaways and contests for personal gain will not be allowed and you will be punished if you do so. Caution: Careful who you accept gifts from, some have been known to use this to blackmail. While this blackmail is not allowed, you should still be careful. " I was also curious to see what you guys think of this idea so that is why I am posting this thread so please leave your thoughts, constructive criticism is always welcome.
I am sure the giveaway part is fine but I'm not sure about advertising a link to your download is okay... also adfly won't get you enough to fund a $10-$20 giveaway with about 50 clicks at best... Or maybe I'm wrong; I have never used adfly
I've seen people fund a 30$ Minecraft account giveaway before but also I think you have to have a certain amount of clicks before ad-fly actually starts giving you money so that could also be another possible issue.
What website/forum was this example on? If it was an incredibly popular thing with thousands of entries then it makes sense.
Adfly works this: 1000 Clicks = 1 Dollar so it would take 10000 clicks to get 10 dollars and 100000 for 100 Dollars think
