LSN Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Well, having a few people as mods who take this forum waaaaaay too seriously I think this will turn into a shambles. There are obviously a few mods as present who are fine but ***** like *** modding us is going to turn it into a shambles.The otib will sink

If a member is found to promote/spam the site with another site then they will be warned/banned. All posts will be removed.Why not ask a member of the Admin team for permission to have your sig?
Taz Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Goes to show how much read/use most of what is on this forum recently then, because I never knew anything about any new "mods" or admin teams.
Guest The Codfather 0312 Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Hasn't this always been a rule?
Taz Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Hasn't this always been a rule?Nope.Previously you could advertise a website (whether it be yours or anybody else's) once on the non-football forum, and add a link in your signature, so that anybody that wished to, could get to it without trawling through the forum to find the original link.It now seems that you can't advertise at all, which to me is just completely ###### up.

Promotion of other sites.Why not ask a member of the Admin team for permission to have your sig?So, pretty please to admin?bollox to 'em!

I wouldn't have thought that many people take notice of adverts on forums
M_Porter Posted February 1, 2006 Author Posted February 1, 2006 GOOD NEWS As you may have seen my sig is now back to its original state and an active link to my site and this is with permission from JAY.I shall leave it up to you to decide why the change in policyI did pm JAY and ask to have my sig back up and was told yes untill further notice atleast it wasnt YOUR COMMENTS ARE NOTED mind you I'm still undecided on this forum being run by the S.T
