Rules question

I would like to ask Zorg (or any other staff members) the following thing:


Is the following thing punishable?
Selling player coords for rubies (only rubies, no res).


I'm asking this because the rules accept almost all payments involving rubies, but wanted to clarify this as well...

Thanks for the fast response.

What if I place a link in my signature, (and of course explaining that it's moving them away from forums and etc)...

I don't think that'd be a good idea

That. And...
I believe only advertising trades of "resources" (metal, crystal, deut, MS, fuel) to rubies and vice versa is prohibited.
It was discussed a long time ago and players agreed to not allow it on the basis that it will reduce income for ZE maintenance. I forgot the details.

I'm sure information and intel are not included on the "resources" so I think the OP's request is just fine. Unless the admins changed their mind.

PS
resource trades should not violate the pushing rule. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1698url
