I'm Lymoh from Italy and I'm the italian MOD, I would like to ask to admin if is allow to post on a local forum the talent of the players that are currently in the transfer market. I know that in other forum there are some specific topic that are used for the transfer market. Can you help me? Thanks a lot

the rule extends across all forums...

If its posted by the owner its ok... BUT as soon as the sale is carried out and the player transfers to another team it is technically breaching the rules if that players talent and name / identifier are still listed... I would say if mods in local forums are allowing people to leave this stuff up they need to think about the rules a bit more and whether they should be mods...

As soon as the player transfers he is another players player and the data on display breaks the rules about posting other players info...

Since when does the existance of such threads allow rules breaking? AG, you know what I mean...

What i would add is that, Admin wont speak all the languages used... so if its a language they dont use how can they know unless the moderators bring it to there attention (after all the mods ar there to moderate it lol)

It does not matter, what happened in the past.

There is one thing: it is forbidden by the forum rules to post skills (and talent is a skill) of players you don't own or that are transfer listed.

Of course you can trust the admins will not find the thread where you post the information - as they ignore the liars story in the ads - , or the moderator of that country forum is too lazy for taking action. If nobody judges there won't be a penalty. But this does not turn this action into a good one.

You see: it is completely on you.

You want to have an advice from a former mod? Do it as you like. So many rule breaks across the board every day, even by mods and admins, so many posts of skills across the board every day...do it as you like and deal with it if you get a penalty!

I doubt this. Earlier, when I was a mod, I jumped into such things when it came to my attention, sometimes I checked some country forum by myself and closed such threads. But this is not a global mods task. Admins have to find a solution for it.

Of course it is not correct, as it is not correct to allow cheating on ads.
