Advertising?
 
Ok once I was told by a few people, I believe Chen and Freddie, that vbulletin.org is not a place to advertise. But I have noticed that Chen is the acception. Can anyone tell my why the rule no longer is in usage?

I'm not sure I understand...there was a rule for no advertising...and Chen is the exception...I take it he's advertised or something? :confused:

Dean C 11-24-2002 06:31 PM

Cuz Chen owns this joint

Boommmmm

Xenon 11-24-2002 06:45 PM

I think you'd like to mention HiveMail in chens signature?
Well as Mist said, the whole site is chens work, so i think he has the right to be excepted from some rules isn't he?

N9ne 11-24-2002 07:13 PM

Oh right, the link to HiveMail in his sig, well that's ok-ish, I mean he did make vb.org but since it's in conjunction with vb.com...maybe it's not such a great idea?

Dean C 11-25-2002 05:43 PM

Yes Chen is exempt for all rules...

*Cheers for the SPD*

It is fine to advertise in your signature in the way that Chen is doing. Many people here are doing that. My site is advertised in my signature, and so are lots of other people's. The staff here stick to the rules just like everyone else.

Why do you reference the german govenrment leader party here?

I once had something in my sig but had it removed...odd. I guess Neo is excluded then?

SaintDog 11-26-2002 01:20 PM

Try adding it back, if it is removed again, there probably was a reason beyond advertising for it being removed. I as well as many others include their websites in the signatures, always have and have not had any problems with it.

Dean C 11-26-2002 05:47 PM

Lol Xenon i was reading an article about the SPD's rise to power during the 1920's and 1930's..

I just thought i'd slip it in there hehe :)

I don't remember that, but anyway. I am only plugging my site in my signature, and there was never a rule against that. Hell, we're even less strict now and allow people to have "donate me" links in their hack listings (as long as it's not a "donate me or I won't send you the hack" type of thing). We always allowed advertising in signatures, and the only time an ad was removed from someone's signature was in Overgrow's case (I think), and that was because people sent him money and got nothing in return (the karma hack).

If the rules forbid advertising in signatures, then trust me, I wouldn't have it. Moderators obey to all rules just like normal users do.
