Like your previous Advertisement. You changed the title and clicked "Post". You clearly forgot to actually type something in the REQUIRED/Optional fields.
You delete it withought warning? and its for a damn base, I dont need to write an entire page just to tell someone to icon me a base. Honestly.
I didn't delete it. Such a post doesn't need a warning for delete. You need to fill out required fields, and/or optional fields. We aren't psychics, so stop acting as if we all MUST know everything going on inside YOUR mind.
Tell us what you require, how to contact, our reward in giving you a "base icon". The ESSENTIAL AND REQUIRED THINGS.
Thats is precisely what I did, I gave them the basic knowledge of what is needed, what they need to do, and how to contact me, for such a simple request I dont need to draw them a blue print, and if they dont understand I gave them my contact information, and deleting such a post like this is pathetic, I would understand if I was spamming, however this is not the case, I simply post a quick to the point ad, only for it to get deleted for a pathetic reason.
No, your previous ad had absolutely nothing changed. All it entailed was the pre-set format for creating a Classified Ads post.

Yes you do. It's done daily for MANY career fields. A person cannot create something that YOU lack to give them information on. Specifically on "base icons" :
Size in Pixels.
Animated?
Included icon_states.
Image format (.dmi, .png, etc.)?

That's the thing, you were. You just changed the title of the post to "base needed" and you clicked Post. You didn't touch the actual post content.
I gave them the necessary information for the project, that was it, anything else they could of contacted me, its as simple as that, im not filling out a resume, im not drawing blueprints, and quite frankly im not putting much time into something so little, now thank you for no help.

Actually, I just helped you more than you can recognize.
Making a blank classified ads WILL get you no help whatsoever.
I think he was referring to when I said (You delete it withought warning? and its for a damn base, I dont need to write an entire page just to tell someone to icon me a base. Honestly.)
Anywho its useless to argue more, the majority of byond staff are hard headed and wont back down when they are unjust.
Unjust is not the correct word here. The following was the contents of your post:
<code> Project Name: Shinobi Chronicles Description: Project Goal: (Provide clear information on what your goal for this project will be. Pay to play, Freeware?) Skills Needed: (What kind of help are you looking for? What skills will they need and what tasks will they be working on?) Compensation: (What will people get for helping you?) Team Members (Optional): (List the current members on your team and what they will do. Also how will you contribute to this project?) Previous Work (Optional): (Show examples of any past projects that you or your team have done in the past that people can use as a reference to see what you're capable of. If nothing is listed here, we'll assume you have no past experience) Contact Information: (Your e-mail address, instant messenger address, web site, or whatever people will need to get into contact with you about this ad. Do not expect people to respond to your post) </code>
You left every single field blank save for the project name. You left not even a single decent way to contact you and didn't specify the best way to contact you (pager, I'm guessing?), and you didn't even describe what sort of base you needed. All you said, and I quote, was "Need a base." You left no mention of compensation or obvious lack thereof. From a moderator's point of view, your post added no value save for clutter, and was deleted as such.
Now a tip for the future: If you don't want your post to get deleted, at LEAST add a basic description of what you need (beyond "need a base"), some contact information ("Yeah, hit me up in the pager"), and at least mention how you plan on (not?) compensating someone interested.

(not my exact ad, however it is remarkably similar, that [stuff] you posted earlier wasnt even close to what I posted)
Please refrain from swearing. This is a public forum aimed at a younger audience. If you re-post your ad with what you showed me here, then I will not delete it again. Also, please don't assume that I'm lying to you when you think I'm wrong.
Do not think im lieing, you have a screenshot, however I know for certain I filled it out, and now there is a swearing thing? this rule wasnt around years ago or not that I know of, dang things sure are going downhill.
If you filled it out then it must have been in an edit that didn't go through, because it wouldn't have only posted part of your post. And posts have been getting edited for years for swearing. I'm closing this post since it has outlived its usefulness.
