Posting links in your sig 

Post#1 » by mattlanta » Sat Jul 26, 2008 2:34 am

Will it break any rules on these boards if I post a link to a Hawks message board that I go to? I see some people promoting their own sites and such, but I'm just making sure so I don't get in any trouble or anything.

You can post a link in your sig as long as you are not actively promoting it.

For example, If you posted the following in your sig there would be no problem;

http://www.realgm.com

But if you added some text promoting the link like:

Click here to visit my site for a chance to win a new ShamWOW.

We would consider that soliciting users and ask you to remove the link.

How's mine? If you guy don't approve of it, I'd be glad to take it out.

Thanks, that's all I wanted to figure out. You can close this topic now if you want. :)
