[ MOD ] Poll on Selling Rule 8

Aug 05, 2011 13:04

There seems to be some debate on whether we should allow non-Hetalia items in Hetalia posts. The mods and I have decided that this issue would be best dealt with by a poll, to see how everyone else feels about this rule.

Here is the rule as it stands:

"Your post must only contain Hetalia merchandise. Your main post (in other words, the post that ( Read more... )

Obviously voting on the first, but slightly okay with the second.
=w= I think if the second one wins, which it looks like it should, maybe the poll should be expanded to decide on the amount?
1 non-hetalia item for every three hetalia items still seems like a lot. So...

I think it's pretty clear and for the most part I'm ok with the rule as it stands. I think this mostly affects doujinshi sellers more than anything which I can understand will be tricky, but I'm not into dj's so I can't comment much on it.

What I'd like to seek clarification on is whether we can still link out to our other sales to give buyers a chance to combine orders with non-Hetalia stuff. Maybe limit it to one link that clearly states it's non-Hetalia? I like the way this seller did it actually. So is this ok?

How about this hetalia@store thing? Is this ok too?

It is fine to link out to your other sales, just as long as they're not the main link you're directing buyers to for Hetalia merchandise. We just want to make it easier for Hetalia-only shoppers to navigate through pages and find Hetalia items easier.

Oh good lj is alive again. Ok thanks for confirming!

I love the rule by the way and appreciate you mods doing a great job with the community. Definitely agree that it should only be Hetalia merchandise only for this comm, coz that's what it's for.

Hope you work out the Hetalia link out to the satisfaction of most if not all members :)

I vote for number 2 and it probably goes without saying if it's largely dominated by Hetalia stuff, but I think combining the "they're easy to find on the page" element or the "first thing you see" on the outside link should be enforced too. That's just my opinion :)

I like option three the best, but I'm going to guess that with the exception of a few (in comparison to most), most people aren't major, major sellers and don't have 10 items at a time ( ... )
