Just a reminder on embedded links

Postby RedRox on Tue Sep 08, 2009 6:13 pm

If you have under 5 posts and you have embedded links to "health and diet" advice, supplements and programs or any commercial looking site, either in the body of your posts or more specifically within your signature, you will be banned immediately and your posts removed. I have a zero tolerance policy on this even if it is well meaning. No commercial links are allowed in signatures. Period. If I see someone with 1 or 2 posts and a link in their siggy, they are gone. No warnings, no questions asked. Buh-bye now! Don't let the door hit your posterior on the way out! :twisted:

I will be journalling on my South Beach diet experience through a blog in Blogger. Can i put the URL in my signature?
Please advise. Thanks.

As long as it's not a commercial site in anyway it should be fine. Thanks for asking though! :D

PM me if you have any questions about this policy. I am locking this topic to prevent off topic postings on unrelated issues/questions which are better posted in other areas.

Adding to the earlier posts, new members should avoid including commercial links in their profiles. Also, if you post "filler" to get five or more posts, we will still consider you a new member. If you're not sure what's allowed, send a PM to one or more of the moderators and ask first.

In short, if you are a new member, no commercial links anywhere or you will be banned without warning.
