    Someone posted a thread looking for a photo rating website, I posted a link to my website that sells the script and received an infraction “self promotion is inappropriate” I told the OP to contact me if he/she wanted it, and I was going to give it for free.

    Thanks Brian

    Typical Dp, i got an infraction for telling someone about a link in my sig that was related to what they where looking for.

    I thought the idea of joining Dp was so that we CAN promote our own sites

    The Infraction isn’t the problem.

    I wondering if this is the end of Solicitations & Announcements, what about people that post discount or coupon codes for their own Directories? Is this still allowed?

    Thanks Brian

    if you want to sell something, send a pm next time.
    sound familiar?

    as for S&A, thats a different ball of wax. and its only a one time thing, supposedly, posting your directory.

    What’s with the sound familiar? And did you read “I was going to give it for free” if so your answer was "inappropriate"

    What about people that post discount or coupon codes for their own Directories? Is this still allowed? (Is this not self promotion?)

    Thanks Brian

    i don't care if its free or $1000, if you post your link its link spam. use the PM system instead of spamming your link and upping your post count.

    as for S&A, you didn't read what i posted did you. for the challenged ones i'll say it again:

    did you get it this time?
