House Rules
1. Generally speaking, what am I allowed to put into a profile?
All profiles have to meet the site content guidelines set forth in
the Terms of
Use, and detailed below.Our objective with sportbets.org.uk is to support
authors that have the desire and intent to develop a readership on the sportbets.org.uk
site, and to contribute in a positive way to the sportbets.org.uk community.
If your intended use runs counter to this objective -- for instance, if you're
sole purpose is to get back links for other sites or to promote or sell dubious
products through your profiles -- then please stop using sportbets.org.uk.
If you're profiles are flagged for violations, we generally will give you an
opportunity to correct the problem and republish the profile. However, repeated
violations will result in your account being closed and all your profiles being
unpublished. If you are unsure if your profile meets our policies, we will be
far more sympathetic if you contact us for clarification before publishing the
profile.
2. What is NOT allowed?
Adult content is not allowed. Below are some examples of prohibited
adult content. This should not be interpreted as exhaustive list of what is
prohibited. If you are unsure if your content is allowed, please contact us
at info@sportbets.org.uk for a clarification before publishing your profile.
The following are not allowed:
• pornographic images
• links to adult or pornographic sites
• discussion or promotion of sexual aids or toys
• detailed descriptions of sexual acts or practices
• excessive profanity
3. My profile was flagged as substandard, what does that mean?
Substandard simply means that the quality of the profile does not live
up to sportbets.org.uk standards. Below are some common reasons that a profile
may be flagged as substandard:
• "Test" or otherwise unfinished profiles
• Very little content
• Unoriginal or purely personal content
• Contributes nothing new in a heavily saturated topic
• Many broken links or links to low quality sites
• Links with deceptive or inaccurate link text
• Missing videos
4. My profile was flagged as overly promotional, what does that mean?
Purely
promotional offers and Profiles designed only to promote other sites or businesses
are not allowed. In particular, the following actions are likely to get your
profiles flagged:
• linking repeatedly to the same site within a profile or across many
profiles
• including links to a page that contains largely the same content as
your profile
• linking to products or services unrelated to a Profile's content
5. Why don't you allow profiles in languages other than English?
At our current size we don't have the resources to properly create
or administer a sportbets.org.uk site in other languages. We hope to be able
to offer our services in other languages in the future.
