Well according to some people whom got raffles removed, I am not allowed to have one.
I find like it is kinda iffy if it is allowed or not, because the rules say nobody should pay to join a raffle.
And these people did not have a raffle of such kind.

Quote from one of them:
"Contests judged on skill are not forbidden. As long as your contest does NOT involve a random number generator, or the winners are chosen by "luck of the draw," to determine outcome, you're golden. "

So no "random" winners, basically.




<da:thumb id="560688381"/> Raffle Removed UPDATEDORIGINAL:
As some of you might have noticed by now that my raffle journal has been removed, not by my choice. The deviantart staff removed by raffle due to a policy violation. Here is a image of the note they sent me.

Apparently raffles for cash/points are not allowed on deviantart. Personally I am furious about this removal because how come my raffle gets removed while I see tons of other raffles all over deviantart that don't get removed. I am currently discussing with the staff about this issue because I can't find anywhere where it clearly states that raffles with cash/point prizes that don't ask to pay to enter are not allowed on the site. I will update this journal once the staff gets back to me.
UPDATED:
Here is the response from the help desk about this issue.

So I guess no more cash/point raffles from me...
On the bright side tho, I have another raffle idea in mind so stay tuned for that sometime soon.
UPDATE 10



I think if it is my point, and can do what I wish.
But I clearly can't .
I don't know, what do you people think?

I'd focus more on the tons of stolen art and little trolls... but that's just me.
