We've had a few posts of late, shamelessly plugging external websites. This isn't for example linking to a goal.com/skysports/espn article, or relevant topic stuff. This is outright advertising where people are posting either posts or topics with the pure intention of getting members across to their site to either sign up or merely to improve their dwindling visitor statistics.
As stated in the http://www.milanfan.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12
Harsh on that Spurs fan, in my opinion. He was not advertising his site, merely using it as his source for the figures he put up.
He comes here for the first time since February and he's just telling us Serie A has had x foreigners because he wanted us to know?
But the biggest reason for closing the topic is... that list is missing Oguchi Onyewu, that can't be forgiven!
I opened that thread so that we can all post random stuff there (the tile is the clue!)... I did not advertize anything, nor did anyone else and that's why it's still there... that's the tiny difference...
So if I were to make threads and linked his site, there would be no problem?
Of course not, why would there be a problem...
look at the first post in this thread:
He was posting a topic about his site.
I don't get what you want to say.
I don't think there's much to discuss anyway. The rules are clear.
I agree with Kurt. He posted some information which some of us found interesting. He wasn't exactly advertising his website as he posted the information in the topic instead of saying "click on the link".
he was advertising, the difference is, it wasn't the usual viagra ad, it was football and Serie-A related and that's why it was not deleted, because all of us found it interesting.
Simply coming onto this site with the sole intention of just posting a link back to your forum is not acceptable (I'm not talking about the bots).
Thus any of these posts I will delete.
Continue to do it, and it will incur a ban.
