if you post a proper request, then its ok, and certainly if its actually paid.
your team request should follow this sort of structure
Who you are
What you do in the team
a very brief background to the project - also, show any progress you can (a background story doesn't count, nor does an "awesome" website, or some renders of how you think the game might look)
how many people you're looking for
what you want from them - the more comprehensive this is, the better, include concept art, reference if you have it
how much you'll be paying
if someone does join up, be reasonable, don't expect them to be able to churn out a fully animated humanoid model in a couple of days, and if you don't provide proper ref or concept art, don't get pissed at them if the model isn't what you'd imagined.
does that help? basically team requests are allowed, so long as you demonstrate that you're not a moron.
good luck
