I've seen too many of these threads.
People are asking for an owner for their server which needs to invest like $500000 into it, yet the other owner INVEST NOTHING
This should not be allowed, cause the other owner should at least invest half.

hi, i need a partner
i need you to invest 50k to my server and i can't invest
pm me to become my partner

Just because something is annoying is no reason to forbid it. If it was a reason, there'd be a WHOLE LOT of things not allowed on these forums.
They are asking for investments, and they're not saying 'im gonna take your money and run' straight out, right? Then they have the right to post investment threads, assuming they qualify for that section.

It's obviously stupid, however because there is no solid line between a stupid thread and a daring one, forbidding it would become tricky.
And being stupid/foolish is not against the rules of this forum either. Would be quite a thing if it was, we wouldn't have even half our members then Kappa

All partner threads should not be banned. Let's say a legit guy, with a legit setup, is asking for a partner because of the amount of stress he has atm. Don't you think that is okay?
And it would require way too much unnecessary moderation to moderate it.[DOUBLEPOST=1470566759][/DOUBLEPOST]
They are moderators for a reason, to moderate the forum. They aren't moderators assigned to a specific section.
Doesn't mean they need the added unnecessary stress.

Like I said multiple times above, that's fine.

But thread's like that isn't allowed.
Just ignore it - also "50k" is over the top. No one ever asked for a specific amount nor anything near to 50k.
I never said they did, it was an example :)

Just make a tag for it and make it so that threads requesting owner & payers have to be in the begging section? Then they can easily moderate it?
Begging section is only for premiums though
Correct me if I'm wrong.[DOUBLEPOST=1470566914][/DOUBLEPOST]
Like I said multiple times above, that's fine.
So you want to get every single partner thread moderated just for a slight increase in viewing pleasure.
It is unnecessary and stupid.
