The Paid Work Rules 
It must be crystal clear that you intend to compensate your employee(s)/freelancer(s). It is not necessary to disclose the amount, but it cannot be revenue share alone. If your intent is to only offer revenue share, then your offer should be posted in the
Collaborations board.
Failure to comply to this rule will get your job offer post deleted.
Rule #2: Use the appropriate message icons to represent the kind of work you are offering.There are three kinds of work positions to be offered; Art, Programming and Music. The small icons represent Contract Work, while the big ones represent Full-Time Positions. Using these icons will allow potential freelancers/employees to better identify the positions they want to apply to.

Rule #3: Be very specific, and specify the licensing of the work.Avoid being vague. Give as much detail as possible in your thread, and make sure to specify the licensing you intend to apply to the contracted work. Providing details on the agreement you intend to have signed is also strongly encouraged. It is important for the employee/freelancer to know this information upfront, so you will be notified if you fail to comply to this rule.
Rule #4: Avoid posting job offers if you have no gamedev experience.There have been multiple instances in the past of people posting offers for both paid and unpaid work while themselves having no experience making games. These projects generally ended in disaster and wasted colossal amounts of time for those involved. If you've never made a game before, but want to hire people to make a game for you, please do not do that. You will likely waste people's time making something that will never make it onto the market. This is not meant to be discouraging or harsh, it is fact. People who lack experience and leadership lead their teams to their eventual doom.
Rule #5: Don't get angry if people ask questions.Artists, Programmers and Composers all want to know what they're getting into. If you get upset by people asking questions about your project, that may reflect poorly on yourself. Instead, try to answer questions in a civil manner. As a side note, if people are being rude in your thread, they might be in the wrong for violating forum rules of conduct, so you can contact an Administrator or a Moderator to have them resolve the situation.
Rule #6: Off topic threads will be deleted without notice.Posting
portfolios,
collaboration offers or anything off topic in this board is prohibited, and is punishable by thread deletion.
PS: When applyingIf you intend to apply for multiple jobs at once, please consider sending private messages instead. If you mass reply to all the threads that interest you, then we end up with all the threads you applied to at the top of the board, which affects job posting visibility.
