Hello, everyone!
Quick PSA about Paypal since this seems to be coming up a lot lately. As per Paypal's Terms of Service you are NOT allowed to ask your customers to pay for the fees of a transaction, nor are you allowed to ask them to "send money to a friend" for a service or purchase. At this stage, all threads that are breaking these ToS are being removed. We can't enforce paypal's ToS but we can't let you break them on our platform.
Here is PayPal's Terms of Service
"3.5 Receiving Personal Payments. If you are selling goods or services, you may not ask the buyer to send you a Personal Payment for the purchase."
Additionally, we have had to close a few threads trading for DA points. As Per DA's ToS we also cannot allow you to break these ToS on our platform.
You can find the ToS for DA points here
"deviantPOINTS cannot be used, Transferred, sold or otherwise traded outside of the Site and any such activity is strictly prohibited."
