    What this section is for.

    Any member of the BG community can use this forum to promote their own stuff. By that I mean mostly: sites, blogs, youtube channels, music, pictures, etc...

    Expect your topic to be deleted and/or yourself banned if you post any of the following:
    • Anything that sells stuff. We have the Buy-Sell-Trade section for that.
    • Asking people to fill surveys.
    • Anything that requires some kind of premium account.
    • Posting non-gaming related content as a newcomer (very low post count).
    • Posting someone else's content as your own.


    Of course we'll probably adapt this forum as it evolves and we might end up merging the game streaming section with this one.

    I have a question: is it allowed to link to material (videos, screenshots) about a game currently in development? For me, it'd be great to collect feedbacks from the BG community.

    Technically, it's something that will be sold - sooner or later - so maybe that violates the section rules.
    I'm not talking about any console title, of course. Just iOS stuff.

    As long as you're the one working on it.

    Instead of risking a ban, I figured I'd ask: Can I promote my roomate's band? No creative hand in it but I do manager their Twitter in his stead.

    Can we promote stuff that is political? Petitions perhaps, or some kind of movement for political organizations.

    Isn't that for the Political Poopdeck section?

    I would agree, as it could potentially lead to sprawling conversations here, which is probably unwanted in a forum like this.
