These rules may update at absolutely any time, with no prior warning. Whilst we try to notify you of our updates, we may be unable to contact you at the time. Rules may also be unlisted; the decision will then be left up to staff members to make.

Plagiarism is not allowed...link spam of any kind, esp referral link spam is not allowed
legitimate referral links are allowed, if honestly answering someone's question or referring us to try a product/program...but you in your own words must give us a review of the item and must have used it and found it to be reliable....
also you must be an active member

Check the dates of when a topic was started and when the last reply made was...if the topic is over a month old and you honestly do not have anything new to contribute to the topic then do not make a pointless post in a thread that has long been dead...if you have something new to add that will restart the discussion, then please feel free to make your post

please do not start topics asking people what they think of such and such if you yourself don't answer your own question...unless you are asking for our advice...

remember this is a Webmasters Discussion Forum, give us something to discuss about!

The use of fake signatures is not allowed....that's why there's this thing called a signature...feel free to make use of it!
