Community,
Since people have short attention spans: NO DISCUSSION OF CONTESTS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. If you talk about a contest on this sub, you will be permanently banned from the sub. Of course, we can discuss the "rules" and why this was problematic, BUT no discussions of ANY contests for now.
A Reddit admin informed us that the contest that was being held was in violation of Reddit rules.
We will be looking more closely at contests and advertising on the sub to ensure we comply with Reddit rules. In the meantime, please do not make further posts about the contest. We will need to review the delivery of the message/post so that it complies with Reddit rules.
While we discuss with the admin, there will be a moratorium on contests. I want to make sure we fully comply with Reddit rules. Until then, any posts that discuss contests will be removed and possible bans. Its extreme b/c the consequences are extreme (loss of the sub). Until we ensure we comply 100%, its not a risk we can take right now. IT should be able to be resolved quickly, I just want to better understand where we fell afoul - which I do see their point in this particular instance.
TLDR; No Contest Posts at all until further notice.

You posted up a set of rules a few months back:

You broke your own rules...
When I just read this I lol'd... could see it coming a mile off.
