He clearly didn't know you had some set of rules against it nor did he know the members at the board would of reacted the way they did.

Just drop it. If any of my members acted like that to newbies I would bann my members not the one who comes and posts a link, natually my members are not like that they would possibly tell him it was wrong, and the mod would kindly delete the thread in the background.

Still it was a clear mistake maybe asking him to not post url's where he did, or something.

Im not judging anything of you or your board, just saying it would of been nice, and would of showed that your board has mature people that could handle something.

It's just that we know from experience that anybody that +++++s their link in their first post is not going to be a very contributing member.

The reason we are not dropping it is because it's good advertisement.

Well not really, I doubt its good advertisement, becauase people will see this board as a group of immature stuck up brats that don't like people posting links for whatever reason.

But then again you are right first impressions last a life time.

Anyways

There is no such thing as bad publicity.

Anybody who is too shallow to take other people's words (espescially of those that were made by a banned member) is not welcomed there anyways.

If only to see what this is all about, people will click on the link, and some will register.

Sure someone might click te link

Publicity has 2 available roads, the good reputation, understandable and reliable one, and the immature, poorly-managed after-rep.

They will click, see what a poor managed community it is with the majority of the user-base acting like children of 10, whom are worried about people from there community going to someone elses.

Anyways I can see Im getting no where with this nor are you getting anywhere with this with me so I will just quietly standdown and let you do whatever you want.

Did you even bother checking it out before insulting it? You obviously don't seem to know what you are talking about. Are you sure you clicked the right link?

Actually there are some big debates, OH is not a place to be treaded lightly. Not everywhere is kind and friendly, over there people generally are swift to act and it's not easy to shake an image. However I do know that OH actually has a good deal of intelligent posters that make meaningful topics.

If you'd actually take a look at some of them then perhaps you'd see that. I host OH and have been a part of their community for over a year. While some members may act like ten year olds that's only a few of them. I know OH, and although it's harsh, it's definitely not immature.

As well I should note OH DOES have a web development forum, which is the proper place to link-whore.
