General Stockpile Rules

1. Any form of begging/donations are not allowed, as per our ToS - http://www.lioden.com/terms.php.
   
   1. Asking for sponsors (or "donations" or "pledges" or "pre-purchase" or any other word/phrase that is used for this situation) is not allowed.
      
      A "sponsor", for those of you who don't know, is asking for GB or SB or other Lioden assets with the promise for something in return. Some of them haven't gotten anything in return and have lost out on the assets they gave away on a promise. This is covered by promise-based transaction rules and won't be moderated by us if you have a deal with another player like that, however asking for sponsors in threads would be considered begging.
      
2. Advertising for other users is not allowed.
   
   1. An exception to this would be that users MAY make "Stud compilation" or collaboration type threads, provided every stud listed in the compilation has a corresponding entry in the thread itself from the owner of the stud.
      
      This means that if you wish to make a group sales thread, each player must have their own separate post on said thread in order to advertise their own goods/services.
      
   2. Users may NOT publicly advertise any sales, raffles, studs, clans, forum topics or profiles that do not belong to an account they own.
      
   3. Users MAY link to certain lions or forum topics that do not belong to an account they own for solely informative reasons, for example to share a game guide or a new mutated lion that was born. Excessive linking of the same topic will be considered advertisement and may be handled at moderator discretion.
3. Soliciting or offering to pay other users to advertise your raffles, sales, trades, etc. is not allowed.
4. Users may not raffle, sell, trade, or otherwise profit off of Goodie Bags in any way, shape, or form. Goodie Bags may only be used to gift items to other players, or used as a convenient way to store commission/service payment in the form of items to fulfil that payment.

Promise Transaction Clarification

As of February 20th, 2017, there has been a change in policy on how we handle promise-based transactions. From this date forward, we will not be involving ourselves in any promise-based transactions in chat, on the forums, in raffles, studding rules, or other public avenues.
This means these transactions can now be advertised.

Our staff on Lioden strongly discourages participating in promise-based transactions; however, we will not interfere with "deals gone wrong". Should the transaction go south, please keep in mind that staff are under no obligation to force refunds, nor compensate for any currency/items/etc. lost.

Please note that we will continue to punish players who intentionally set up these transactions to take advantage of other users if sufficient information is brought to us via Modbox.
