KaoriFan Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Nope not at all tbh I would have thought the paying traders on here would have complained? maybe they have? i have been wondering this for a while. when i was here last time, there were not so many. now there are a plethora of advertisements and other things cropping up in sig's, that i have noticed in the few days i have been back. must admit, it does surprise me when traders pay good money to have their goods and services advertised, and yet there does not seem to be a rule on adverts in sig's, for people who do not pay.

Tom Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 I Dont See The Problem? if you really don't have a problem then you may as well not pay next year and advertise anyway then unless "IDSTP" means something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 The advertising in sigs thing hasn't gone unnoticed. I think that is fairly obvious since Tom started this thread on the subject! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixelfill Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 In general as long as any advertisements were not for car related items, and therefore not in direct competition with traders on here - they have been overlooked. e.g computer services, or underwear to name but two. Obviously if this were to become widespread we would have to reconsider this stance. Where car related advertisements have been spotted in signatures they have been addressed, or are in the process of being so. if anyone has any objections to any advertisements or is aware of any "signature violations" they should report them, and they will be addressed.

Todd Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I have a link in my sig but I've nothing to be ashamed of as I checked with a mod before I created it. May be different as I am not selling products and what I do would only ever be used by a couple of folk on this forum anyhoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pot Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Now I wonder how it would work if I was to advertise juglords.com (which I own, whois is if you want to come and see me ) - And I pointed it to here... Not that I'm going to, but I just wanted to say I own juglords.com - I've got too much time on my hands... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has never been allowed for someone who is linked to a company to advertise their own company here without being a trader. So no, you can not just put a link to your website and avoid paying the traders fee. I will be updating the club rules soon to say you are not allowed to even mentioned the name of a company which isn't a paid up trader of this club. I'll then set about removing all links from peoples signatures. That should hopefully sort the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
