Metin2 PServer Advertising rules
- Netiquette: Treat other members with respect. Damaging someone's reputation is strictly forbidden if the respective post lacks clear evidence. Keep private things private. Meaningless, destructive posts are considered spam.
- Threads need to be approved by the moderation before getting visible to normal users. Bypassing this filter (e.g. by posting in other forums) will result in an immediate warning. The respective thread will then be removed and has to be recreated.
- Servers may not be advertised earlier than 14 days before their official release date.
- There may not be multiple (active) threads for one and the same server.
- Servers may be advertised only by using the German or English language.
- Effortlessly designed advertisement threads will be closed. A certain amount of information is required.
- Existing websites should be linked accordingly. Their visitors should also be able to get back to elitepvpers (backlink).
- Posting twice in a row is tolerated only if the post contains relevant information for players.
- Betas have to be accessible to the public. However, the number of participants may be limited.
- Servers may no longer be advertised by third parties. Friends or other external persons are considered third parties.
- Servers may no longer be advertised by team members who do not have full decision-making power like moderators, game masters, game admins, board admins, developers or community managers. Responsible are those who are pulling the strings.
- Those responsible (mostly server admins or sponsors) need to list a few of their epvp account information, i.e. their usernames and join dates. Also, the listing has to show the names (or pseudonyms) they are using on the server. All these information are collected in the original post.
- Team members who got promoted to the server admin rank (or higher) need to be listed accordingly. They are considered responsible persons.
- The responsible persons need to be listed even if they have left the team.
Just use a table that provides an overview of the entire team if you want to be on the safe side.

If there is no such listing, your thread will not get approved! Remember to keep it up to date (see also point #15)! - Each server should aim for a minimum runtime of 6 months.
- If no uptime of 6 months has been reached, we will automatically prohibit the publication of further servers for 6 months. The release date counts as start date of the penalty.
- After a runtime of 6 months, each server operator is allowed to publish another server, as long as the existing server is still maintained. This regulation extends to each additional server. With a third server, for example, the two previously created servers must continue to be operated. Server networks are therefore generally allowed.
- New servers coming out and being part of an existing network are also affected by these rules.
- Raffles may only be promoted if the prizes are only elite*gold or items available on the server (including coins).
- If you decide to use elite*gold as a prize, the thread creator must already own the total amount during the raffle.
- All information regarding the raffle should be available in the thread presentation during the event.
- If the prize is not awarded or is even faked, the thread will be closed.
