6. For the love of the Naaru: Do not bump your posts.
I understand it is not easy waiting for your request to be picked up while you see so many other creations being made around you, but bumping your post is NOT the way to go. It will only clutter and explode the thread, and it will not make your request go any faster. Should you see your post drown in the sea of pages, please send a kind and polite PM to one of the people working on other requests. Obviously, there is no need to spam us, so one PM to one person will do. If you see other people bumping their post for no legitimate reason, use the report function. For more information on bumping posts, please read
the forum FAQ. Please do note though, that requests can be reposted, but on a one week cooldown (see question 7 for more information about this).
7. Signature requesting cooldown: One week. - (For skipped posts and re-requests).
This applies to two specific cases:
- Sometimes, peoples' requests get skipped due to an influx of requests (or if they don't pick a signature maker's interest). Since we need to regulate the income of requests, there is a
one week cooldown for reposts. No bumps are allowed (and although they're two different words for what is the same action, I'm emphasising on it to differentiate between those that read the first post and those that didn't, and this makes indentifying the offenders much easier).
- We also have had certain cases of people requesting signatures, getting them made, and then one or two days later, the individual is requesting a brand new one. The artist in question put their time and effort into making your signature. Asking for a brand new one, for something that you knew was eventually going to happen, is extremely rude.
This includes faction changes, race changes, name changes, main character changes, and smaller changes (like changing an armor set or weapon). There's also a
one week cooldown for re-requests.
Please abide by this, because it is fair upon signature makers this way, and results in a controlled flow of requests, or the signature makers themselves not feeling as if their time has been wasted. If you are seen requesting a new signature in this thread before the cooldown is up, your request shall be ignored and/or deleted by a Moderator.
