Thread: Igiver for Seedbox Giveaways

Do users have to give an igiver when receiving a seedbox in the "Free Seedboxes" section?

Now my first response was yes, but since the "Free Seedboxes" forum is not under Area 51 then I am not entirely sure.
The Seedbox Giveaways rules thread does not contain any more info on the subject neither does the main site rules.



Perhaps the rules for this got lost during the move to V3.

Users must give iGiver when receiving a seedbox if it is for more than 48 hours. Also, the receiver must have full access to the seedbox without having to share it with someone else to qualify for an iGiver. You can find the rules here: Seedbox Giveaway Rules

@Stooki. There is nothing that mentions igiver in that thread.

Seedbox Giveaway Rules

* Seedboxes must be given for a minimum of 48 hours

* Close the thread when you complete your giveaway and edit your first post to include the name of the winner(s). Prolonged giveaways (e.g. 1 winner each week for 1 month) must also include the date the next winner will be selected.

* No simultaneous slot giveaways allowed. You must give each user full bandwidth/access for his use alone. Only the giveaway winner is allowed to have torrents on the box for the duration of his win. No two users may have access at the same time. This is considered iGiver cheating and will result in an automatic and permanent ban.



For Example:

1. If you have a 100Mbit unlimited bandwith Kimsufi box with uTorrent. You should give full access uTorrent/FTP to that person without someone else using that seedbox for that duration.
2. If you have a shared seedbox where you are allowed to have 5 torrents max, 100Mbit speed, and unlimited bandwith, you must give that person full access to it, so he should be able to use the 5 torrent capacity and the full 100Mbit speed.

All seedbox giveaways will now only
be posted in this specific forum.
That is all.

Yea it doesn't say it directly but when u read this part, "This is considered iGiver cheating and will result in an automatic and permanent ban." You can deduce that an iGiver is to be given.

Yeah that's what I thought but we shouldn’t have to deduce anything. I feel the rule on this needs to be clearly defined.

Yea I agree with you. But if I remember correctly, the "free seedbox" giveaway forum use to be under Area 51 before they added the seedbox discussion subforums. If that is the case then your probably right in your first post; that it got lost during the move to v3
