RE: What are the rules in steemit regarding advertisement and giveaways? How about bullying?
Now this is why I have asked this questions and thank you very much @mattclarke for a very good point.
Those kind of giveaways would be considered as spammy because they are just posting exactly the same post over and over. It would be like plagiarism cutting and pasting someones post/blog/article but with this it's their own article getting cut and pasted over and over which is spammy.
If that explanation could be added to the comments of the post that was flagged would be sweet. This guys probably don't know that what they are doing is really a spam or whatever they call it, and not generating a good quality post.
That's one down, how about the advertising of product/service within your post or end of your post? Any ideas?
Again, its all personal taste. Some people might hate it, others like my self, don't really mind.
If you are promoting an idea or business in a banner at the end of your post, it sort of indicates that you plan on sticking around and building a following here.
Not having hard and fast rules is kind of good.
It lets the observant, insightful and creative succeed. The automatons can have the rest of the world.
Are you saying if someone wanted to have an ongoing contest like weekly or biweekly, it would be considered spam?
