I think it is pushing the advertisement thing... Discuss.

That isn't them advertising. Besides, that has been done for a long time in various shops.

Well, if they start advertising websites, (or forums) I do have a right to warn them, right?

I'd sure be happy to warn someone who did that.

Permission to close?

chat log between M4 and me:

(4:06:14 PM) thepicklemanofdo: also, What do you think about super ad space!
(4:06:20 PM) thepicklemanofdo: um..
(4:06:25 PM) M4: not really sure what it is
(4:06:28 PM) M4: ill go look at the thread
(4:06:43 PM) thepicklemanofdo: If you think It should be locked, tell me
(4:06:46 PM) thepicklemanofdo: I want to be the person
(4:08:15 PM) M4: well if anyone tried to advertise a different forum then you should stop it
(4:08:27 PM) thepicklemanofdo: well
(4:08:33 PM) thepicklemanofdo: I mean, if its a plain shop
(4:08:37 PM) thepicklemanofdo: then its useless
(4:08:52 PM) thepicklemanofdo: I mean, nobody's gunna buy anything
(4:08:55 PM) M4: you mean advertise their own shop in a thread in the shop board?
(4:09:02 PM) thepicklemanofdo: ..
(4:09:07 PM) thepicklemanofdo: i mean,
(4:09:10 PM) thepicklemanofdo: its so stupid
(4:09:22 PM) thepicklemanofdo: nobody will want to advertise in a shop that sells advertisments
(4:09:32 PM) thepicklemanofdo: cause nobody will look at them...
(4:09:41 PM) M4: you got that one right
(4:09:48 PM) thepicklemanofdo: so...
(4:09:54 PM) thepicklemanofdo: do you think I should close it?
(4:10:18 PM) M4: the problem is that it doesnt break any rules. it's just stupid.
(4:10:22 PM) thepicklemanofdo: yeah...
(4:10:24 PM) thepicklemanofdo: but...
(4:10:29 PM) thepicklemanofdo: its just SO pointless
(4:10:36 PM) thepicklemanofdo: I'll look at the rules
(4:10:56 PM) thepicklemanofdo: Posting in the wrong board?
(4:11:15 PM) thepicklemanofdo: Advertising things?
(4:11:26 PM) M4: advertising things..
(4:11:38 PM) thepicklemanofdo: I just don''t think this should be allowed
(4:11:44 PM) M4: i think that would be a rule to stop people from straying from this forum and going to another
(4:11:49 PM) thepicklemanofdo: Its too pointless
(4:11:52 PM) thepicklemanofdo: i mean...
(4:12:11 PM) thepicklemanofdo: the only posts have been ones arguing over the legitimatacy
(4:12:56 PM) M4: well
(4:13:06 PM) M4: it seems pretty obvious that nobody will buy anything
(4:13:09 PM) M4: go ahead
(4:13:11 PM) thepicklemanofdo: ok

Anyway, should i go ahead and implement the siggy and avatar rules?

I have an 'advertisement,' it's just a link, and the forum is an affiliate, so why do I have to remove it?
