Let me translate the E-Mail for you...Keep our Google ads on the competition site (Yahoo) and we will soon ban you!!!
nino's a joker so half the time i cannot tell his jokes from his truths. but i'd say that's a warning and that as long as you take it off you'll be fine. not too sure about the yahoo part though.
aww cmon don't bully the poor n00b! seleno, if i were you i'd take off everything form yahoo groups, whether allowed or not. i for one won't want to risk my account. after you've done that, shoot an email to G saying you apologise and that you have taken steps to comply. they'd appreciate that.
you actually got an email from Google WARNING YOU?????? Usually they just kick your butt out and won't even tell you why!!!!
they didn't get warning emails, did they? well i wouldn't know if they're allowed or not, but since G warned you (and being vague as always) i'd rather lose a few visitors than losing the account.
Seleno, Google is telling you not to encourage people to visit your site by posting to forums. Someone apparently reported you for posting to forums asking people to visit your site. It's a violation of Google policy to draw unnatural attention to your site if Google Ads are on it. Be careful how you word your posts so that it doesn't sound like you are encouraging people to visit and maybe click an ad. You're VERY lucky to have just gotten a warning, I'm surprised they didn't just kick you out.
EDIT: Never mind. If Yahoo allows it, you can add other ads there. I just wouldn't have Google ads on Yahoo site!!!
but like in here, we post threads asking people for opinions about our site under the placement/reviews section. isn't that also considered asking people to visit our site?
thanx for reply,but i never asked people to click or to visit,i sent forwards adding pictures,but when u click in the pictures you'll be in my site,and added link to my site name also so do you think this is allowed to send forwards with site link on the pictures?
