No you read it right

so he's good here, his site has no ads (didn't see any when I disabled ad block on his site the other day) and he's not self-promoting.

What if a free site had advertising... it would then be no because they're generating income which is self-promotion for your wallet

. Unless let's say it's an ad for an affiliate site well more so sister site, example if a free site advertised another free site because they want others to know of another nice forum or similar interests site it would then be allowed, so in actuality it would depend on the ad(s) content.

Well back to topic, version controllllllllllllll!
