Where is this copryright held, i.e. which country.

Just make an avatar and sig with your own user name.
So there is no meaning of stealing that

Is your site commercial

It's just that it mentions you and your company and implies it's content is copyright protected. As I understand it the board does not allow advertising of commercial sites. Perhaps I have got that wrong.

Maybe one of the mods can clarify the position.

I think that using someone elses avatar or signature should not be allowed on this board. Show a little respect people.

Yes, i totally agree. Commercial advertising is not allowed here and in fact has been mentioned many times before. I think the MODS have missed this one.

Here is the ruling on that one:
6. Advertising or soliciting for a product or service for the purpose of commercial gain without the consent of the administrators is prohibited.

Sorry to quote myself, however nothing seems to have been done about this. As I understand it we are not allowed to advertise commercial sites.

I assume this rule is there for a reason. We have had problems in the past with parts of the board being closed. Fortunately this did not result in this forum going under, thanks to members keeping the faith.

However it is not unreasonable for us to recognise that rules are there for a reason. Would someone please tell me if this advert is within the rules. The chap is advertising a commercial site, or what appears to be one. Is there some reason that this is different from previous posts which have been deleted.

Any advice from a mod greatly appreciated. We don&#39;t want to end up back where we were, with the forun neutered.

i made my avatar so anybody who takes it is a gay ass prick&#33;

The voice of reason speaks.

Do you find you insult a lot of people without knowing why.
