Is it ok to post a link to a raffle that is currently on Bundlestars?

It uses gleam and there is an optional way to get an entry by joining the Bundlestars steam group.

I'm asking this because the last time Bundlestars held a raffle some users here missed out on it.

Check out the Bundlestars facebook page for more info.

You may choose 1 from a selection of 10 games

Rising Storm 2: Vietnam
Middle Earth Shadow of war
Prey
Micro Machines
Tekken 7
Dirt 4
Get even
TES Online: Morrowind
Sonic Mania
Little NIghtmares

Winners will be drawn on 19th June 2017

Technically no but IndieGala GAs get posted here as well and they require you to join a Steam group as well.

When posting links or content, that content should not force users, encourage users through reward, or primarily exist as a traffic source for users to perform an action for promotional, commercial, or monetary benefit. Such actions include but are not limited to clicking a referral link, liking a Facebook page, following a Twitter account, joining a Steam group, completing a survey, or making a donation. (Please note, in giveaway descriptions we do allow users and developers to link to their related Steam Greenlight, group, and store pages, as well as their social media channels. Users are also able to reference their group giveaways when posting in the Group Recruitment category of our forum.)

By the way which game is it ? Can't find anything from BundleStars on Reddit right now.
And if people know what game they'll be able to find it themselves anyway if they want to.

Edit: Ok, nevermind ;) It's not 1 fixed game but from a random selction.

Don't worry. I should probably read more carefully who replies to what... This has happened to me twice yesterday as well :D

Indiegala GAs are from their store directly. They don't use gleam or necessitate you to liking or subscribing anything. Apart from having an account there of course.

Unless they changed it membership in the IndieGala Steam group is required to claim a key.

I think most people overlook that because I for example joined that group 3 years ago and once it's done it's done but it's still a mandatory requirement.

I don't know about that. Can't remember not being in the group once I was a customer ;)

that too is technically against the rules as well, but everyone overlooks and ignores it when it's just a single solitary requirement such as joining the group. people mostly have issues with gleam and woobox powered ones in general tbh.

Indeed. But don't get me wrong I'm not saying I don't want those IndieGala promotional freebies posted here. I'd rather we changed / clarified the rules so gibs from reputable sites line IndieGala or BundleStars can be posted even if they ask something tiny like joining 1 group in return but scummy sites likes HRK or Gleam GAs / raffles with 20 tasks can not.

yeah i wish it was clarified even better as well. it needs clarified more then just a limit of tasks too, because i'd still say alienware's level requirement is only 1task that is actually quite a choir. not only is it a choir, but it's a choir that takes people away from this sites forum and has them participating on a completely different forum instead.

It's not true anymore. But yes when they required it, no one had a problem with it.

Thanks for pointing that out :) Although one could argue that automatically being signed up for the newsletter is just a different kind of task but as I said I find what IndieGala asks in return for their promotional freebies absolutely reasonable.

Also a rather philosophical question if mandatory acceptance of something constitues a task...

safer to just inform people of its existence without the link.

Ok, i'll just leave the topic open.

Although i'm not sure if one is able to access the raffle without the direct link.

Don't think you can share the link since it is not a sure win.
I believe only if it is a sure win thing then u can share the link. (thus, raffles and lucky draws should not be shared)
