Default Rule clarity

@Jonny702

I started a new thread so we didn't hijack the other one.

For people new to this thread... We are discussing what the "25 post rule" pertains to.


This thread is to clarify the rules that are posted. Please post any questions about the rules here for discussion.

ugh...

I know. I've tried to get clarity on this as well. I take my info straight from the rules that are posted.

Here we go...

This is where the rules reference posting links:

So there is NO 25 posts before link rule that I can find...

@gmrgrl4life

I think that is fine. I think the links it is referring to is in the subject of advertising, recruiting and self promotion.

We have to judge these things on a case by case basis. We can't be robots about it.

So people CAN post links before 25 posts as long as it isn't to their YouTube account.

To my understanding if it isn't for their Youtube, or advertising in anyway (their site, tourny, etc.) and its for the benefit of the site, they can.

That's to my understanding though.

They can site their own site if it is relevant to the topic. But no one should be like:

Check out my site guys: link here

It should be useful to the thread if a link is being thrown out.
