Do not use the public forums to run contests.

If it's a title bar race, between members, and the only prize is the title that they have earned through the "Trust System".

Does this break the rule made?

And if this doesn't break the rules, can we have a title bar race via FAQ on Bungie.net Member Titles / Prefixes / Bar Colors. Or can I make use this thread for such a thing?

I'll tell you the same thing Yoozel told me. If you have to ask, it's probably against the rules.

It's a white area that's been black crayoned in.

I wouldn't make a topic on it, but it might be okay.

Perhaps, make a group for competitive title hazing?

Most of the things you can run on the public forums go in the classifieds. What you are allowed to do in the classifieds is detailed here.

It doesn't belong in the classifieds, you know.

I didn't see his part about the title bar contest. I left that here so he would know what contests are okay.

Title bar contests would probably go in a group.

I'd PM a Ninja on this one, but I'd say that's probably not too bad. I think the rule is designed to apply to prizes in cash value or something else; this is a race, with the prize being something you would receive normally on the site. You're not the one distributing the prize, so I'd say it probably wouldn't be bad.

For an "official" answer, I'd PM someone. Revan's online.

I would make the group, but groups tend to die fast...

But you can make it. And we will see how this goes.

Title Bar Races, maybe a acronym? TBR? Well you think of the name and I will join.

I think I'll make a group that's like the septagon, but a little more open to off-topic-ness and a little less open to bad members.

That sounds perfect. Hopefully this title bar race goes as planned.

Key

It's not a contest if you can't actively do things to consciously improve your standings in said contest. And if you post a lot just to get intrepid or fabled, you're most likely spamming and that IS illegal.

What you've proposes is as much a contest as is betting on which leaf will blow down the street first. Entirely out of your control, pretty much.

In summation: it's not a contest, it's a bet.

Intrepid and fabled are titles that I rather really not both, I am talking about continually active and it has to be legit.

Not this spam you are talking about, it is a race to see who gets to the next title after the one they have, title and fabled seem a little flawed.
