HA Contest Update

Contests

I would like to take a moment to address the idea that people are having of selling HA colours for others to submit to the monthly contest.

This is strictly prohibited.

All HA entries - base or colour - has to be entirely your own work, as with all contest entries (unless otherwise specified by the admin running it).


Anyone found to have entered contest content that they have purchased from another user, or to have sold contest content to another user, will be banned from all aspects of the contest for three months. Repeated infractions can incur more serious penalty.

This may seem harsh but I am hoping that this news post will be enough to deter people.

Huh. Closest i've gone to that is encouraging someone else to enter the contest themselves. which is fine apparently.

Does this mean collaborations aren't allowed?

Whaaaaat? Why would someone do that? That's pretty much cheating and claiming the artwork as your own, when it clearly isn't. :|

Since the Give/Take teos, where it was allowed, people have asked (and yes, sadly some assumed), so I thought it was best to clear it up and make a very strict guideline about it to prevent any issues coming up =)

Ah okay ya makes more sense now I guess still I think it shouldn't have been allowed for anythign period as it starts all this afterwards haha...

This really confuses me. Why the hell would people do this? Why not just take the stuff they create and enter it themselves? Especially since you can get SUPER RICH..why give that chance to someone else? WHY?
