Clarification of rule - asking for money on a discord server

Hey fellow SG members,

I am unsure about the scope of the advertisement rules.

My understanding is, that promoting your Steam group (even if it is not centered on SG giveaways) and discord server in the description of your giveaways, as long as you do not suggest that joining the discord server is required to get access to more giveaways. Please correct me, if this understanding is false or incomplete.

Over the last couple of weeks/months I got the impression, that more and more discord promotions pop up. This week I joined such a server, just to see why there was so much promotion. One of the first thing you see, is something along the lines of "pay money to get access to more giveaways".

I wonder now, do these kind of promotions conflict with the following guidelines of SG?

Collecting money, items, or games for giveaways, lotteries, or group access. For example, asking users to donate a few dollars, with the promise of giving away a valuable game once adequate funds have been raised. Or, asking users to personally send you games and items for an event. Or, requiring users to send you annual fees to participate in your Steam group.

Third party giveaways that require or reward users for performing profitable actions. For example, linking to a giveaway on another service that requires or incentivizes users to click a referral link, like a Facebook page, follow a Twitter account, join a Steam group, complete a survey, sign-up for a newsletter, or make a donation.

Gambling. Do not post content or links to gambling related sites, such as those to bet on the outcome of gaming matches, or those that collect money or items for a chance to win a prize.
