Referral links?

DwightKSchrute · 09-04-2011, 07:37 AM

Hopefully this is the right place to inquire about this.

I don't believe this was mentioned in the rules, however I'm curious to know what the stance on referral links either thread posts or signatures is? I've seen a few individuals use their referral links in actual posts.

Each forum is different and some condone it, while others forbid it.

Any guidance on the topic from a mod/admin is greatly appreciated.

ETA: Just for clarification (which maybe obvious), I'm referring to filehost referral links.

They should not be including any referral links anywhere in their posts, if you see someone posting a referral link please report the post

Allowing people to include referral links in their post signature, just encourages people to flood or mass post, so they can have their referral link posted as much as possible

Thanks for the response. I'll report the last post in the thread. However every post they have made in that thread (6 pages) includes a referral link for a minimum of 3 file hosts.
