DON'T
Anyone not following the rules will be warned and eventually permabanned from the thread.
DON'T
- Post a Tweet from a banned source (see below for the banned sources) unless they have held an interview with a player
- Also, don't post a Tweet from an aggregator that refers to a Tier 4 source or below. The same exception as above applies.
- Post a non-English Tweet without a basic translation (either from another Tweet or in the post itself). Suggested translators: Google Translate, DeepL, Reverso
- Post anything from aggregator accounts (e.g. parkyreport) without the original source (as a second Tweet, link, embed, image, or a reference to a TV/radio show).
- Post anything from aggregator accounts who don't refer to the original source and tend to make stuff up for retweets/follows. Example, Proof
- Post the following types of Tweets (post them in quotes/spoilers to avoid putting them into the feed)
- Joke/Piss-take Tweets
- Tweets that don't refer to a transfer story (e.g. a journalist posting their own opinions; example)
- Tweets that refer to agent changes (without referring to the player's future), team ownership updates, or financial analyses (a transfer budget is enough info)
- Post more than 3 Tweets per post. We highly encourage only 2 at most.
- Post a comment referring to a rumour/report without a Tweet (e.g. "I've read multiple reports about Queens Park being linked to Haaland. If true...")
- Post the full article verbatim from a Tweet. Provide a bullet-point summary instead.
- Post anything that was tweeted more than three days ago. If it wasn't posted before then, nobody cares.
- Post Tweets that are already in the thread. Check the feed before posting the Tweet.
- Use the thread to moan (about the Tweets, Queens Park's targets, other teams' targets compared to Parky's, moaners, etc.).
- Post off-topic comments or hold extended discussions over a single Tweet (that span multiple pages). Create a new thread instead.
- Article with no author = typically unreliable (exception: journalist websites like gianlucadimarzio.com)
- If a Tweet gets deleted, then either replace it with another Tweet or delete the post.
- Treat Fabrizio Romano as both a source and aggregator.
- If Fabrizio Romano refers to another source, then provide a Tweet, link, etc. from that source
