These are some things that will not be allowed in the Marketplace

  1. Gmail accounts (Free or not)
  2. 30gigs Invites
  3. Selling your webspace to mirror files (it's breaking the ToS)

What is the reasoning behind your decision.
bogger
it's spam, and it's free anyway, so asking people to pay for an invite isn't really that good an idea, no one was actually buying them any more either,

Can we sell invites to private BT trackers?

What is a 30 gig invite?

No.

A 30gig invite is a invite to an email service Razz

would "Messenger live invite" be consnsiderd as a what not to sell? I am confused.

Can I sell my webspace of Frihost to mirror files?
bogger
why would anyone buy your space, when they have their own space,

to save noobie the bother:
you can, as long as the files aren't in breach of copyright, and don't break the ToS


EDIT: ironically, bogger actually did break the ToS himself

Yeah, good point - sorry, should have checked that. I edited my post because n0obie's got a more comprehensive link list. The point being that the invites aren't required anymore, so you're not allowed to sell them.

Are we allowed to sell links to people like as a link for a free .info domain for something like $10FRIH? Such as when I make a post and some one wants to buy the link and they send a pm and buy the link then I send the link as a pm. Is that allowed because the link is secret?
Blaster
Do you mean like having a site that gives out free domains? Well there is already places to find them. If you mean to sell domins you have. Then i have seen it and there is no problems so I would say it is ok.

Yes that would count as starting your own email server and no that's not allowed.

I have my own paid web server, can I post paid webspace packages here. I know they might get it free here, but they may want more and I would like to give them a chance to buy mine, if it possible. Very Happy

Actually in frihost, you must sell your stuff using frih$ only.

If you want to sell it using actual money, then what you can do is, advertise your site alone here, and then in your site, you can offer your stuff for real money using paypal or something etc

I think that is your best option..

Cause they certainly wont allow you to advertise in the marketplace with real money

Would it be against the rules to sell one-way links to other's web sites?

for example: I (me) will link to you without reciprocal for a price of xx $frih?

This is allowed - check out some of the marketplace threads - several people sell advertising space in this way.

Therefore it's a free thing and you're not allowed to sell free things.

Yes - use the marketplace forum and start your own thread.

haak_heu

garionw

And to answer your question (Which you've asked about 5 times too) No, you cant exchange your Frih$ in any way, shape or form
mathiaus
No you cannot sell your FRIH$ for money via paypal or any other form.

Can I sell space from my Yahoo server?

People will be able to upload files, and I will charge them by the MB?

On a forum where people have their own hosting service with 250 MB disk space? Lol

I don't see why not... but this will most likely break the TOS of your Yahoo account. However, as Star Wars Fanatic has said, I don't think it will be a very successful venture. Particularly since there are several free file hosts available.

Remember though that you can not resell any of your Frihost resources.

I have two scenarios which are legal / illegal here?

scenario 1) If I made a post asking people to register on a forum, and put my name in the refferals box, is this illegal??

scenrario 2) I ask ppl to PM me for more info, then tell them. is this illegal?

Illegal is a bit strong, but neither of these actions are allowed on Frihost. You are not allowed to use referral systems or links through the Frihost forums at all - this is why it is described as "direct or indirect" in the forum rules.

You are allowed to put your referral links on your own website, but this forum may not be used for any referral systems.
Manofgames
what about if i set up my own site about it, but paid people frih via frihost.


im guessing this too is not allowed.
Animal
Manofgames wrote:

Again, this would be using Frihost indirectly to distribute referral links. So I'm afraid that's still not allowed.

ok, thanks for the verification.Smile

I would say that no, it's not still in effect. However, we'll put a few terms on it:

If you sell domains (of any extension) then the following must be made clear before the sale:
  • Domain Period (eg. full 12 months, or remainder of previous ownership)
  • Full Control? (will the user have full DNS control, or is it a redirect-only?)
  • Terms at the end of the sale period (will the user be given first-refusal to continue with the domain?)

Suppose I was selling a .com domain on a site like Sedo, can I:

a) advertise about that in a post?

b) advertise about that in my signature?

No and No, I'm afraid. The only currency you can trade in on the Frihost forums is FRIH$. You could, however, advertise the domain on your Frihost site if you wanted. You could also advertise it in a marketplace post and your sig if you were selling the domain for FRIH$, but I doubt you'd be interested since you're looking for real money for it Wink

On a personal note, I think it would be fairly pointless advertising a domain for sale for real money on the Frihost forums anyway - Sedo is quite expensive because of their processing fees, and pretty much everyone on the forum is here for free hosting making it doubtful they would have a lot of money to spend on this kind of thing, or they wouldn't want to spend that kind of money. But that's my non-moderator opinion.

Provided NP's means Name Points, yes. Several users have previously traded Name Points on the Frihost Forums. However, you can only sell them in exchange for FRIH$.

Good lord I thought this topic had finally died.

Would everybody please read the clearly outlined rules and TOS for Frihost I am almost frightened to mention that you had to agree to them in the EULA before even getting an account)? I such a simple thin were done, alot of spam could be avoided.

If you have any legitimate question please feel free to contact any staff member with your questions.
