Clarification on RMB ads- events relating to the region

[Pollaetorian]

Hi,

I understand generally we are not allowed to RMB advertise in UCRs unless the region is tagged "recruiter friendly". I am looking for a clarification on how this applies to events that are directly related to the target region.

How would this apply in an internal dispute where some members decided to split off and form their own region?

What if I wrote an news article about a certain region and I wish make sure the region is aware of it?

What if in a 'poll raid' and I wish to let the target know what has happened?

In all of these instances the target region is the topic of discussion that the 'external' splitter region/news article/poll raider is advertising.

Regional schisms are a natural political event, and the mods tend to ignore complaints about cross advertising during the few days it takes to shake them out. It's always a judgment call, though - if you're still pestering your old regionmates a month or a year later, that's harassment. If somebody makes ten (or ninety) posts in a row, that's spam. If somebody is abusive towards someone else that's moving or not moving, that's flaming. Discussions are usually fine.
