What would be considered hinting for a promotion?

[crisp jungle]

Could you give an example because I’ve been thinking on this and couldn’t find a good answer, thank you!

Examples of hinting:
"I hope I get promoted!"
"I have an x amount of time every day in-game and I am very active, so I deserve a promotion!"
“I always help people, just saying.”
“I do so much for this server.”
“I’ve been here longer than everyone else.”
“I’d be a really good MR.”
“I might leave if I never get promoted.”

Oh ok! Thank you!!!

[brittle condor]

Of course!

Just anything that is like "ooh give me promotion 🥺"

You've mentioned terms, which can be said depending on the context and the person you are speaking with, like what's wrong to tell an LR friend: "I hope to get promoted".

Sure, you are right about the fact that sometimes an LR telling another LR saying they hope they get promoted is not considered hinting. I only listed these examples because they are usually used to hint in certain contexts, like when, let's say, there's an MR you are talking to as an LR who can affect your promotion in #general-lounge and you slip in a message like "I hope to get promoted", or when you even say that you have, let's say, 200k points to make them feel obligated to give you a promotion. Telling another LR you hope you get a promotion is not always hinting, but it is if you let's say, tell them during a shift.
