RULES FOR POSTING IN THE
Home Based Business
Forum Learn
about The Law of Attraction Home Based Business! [Law
of Attraction] [Forum]
Discussion Forums - NO ADVERTISING
The rules for the discussion forums are simple,
but MUST be adhered to: .
NO ADS AND NO SOLICITING IN THE DISCUSSION FORUMS. (see below)
NO SPAM EMAIL TO MEMBERS.
NO SPAMMING THE FORUMS (one message to multiple forums -
including the ad forums)
NO INAPPROPRIATE POSTS.
(Go to the bottom of this message for rules on ad posting)
What makes a post an ad or solicitation?
Posts with no discussion value.
Asking anyone to contact you or asking them to visit your site.
Any links to your opportunity or company site inside the message
text.
Posting a message as a ruse to getting someone interested in
your business.
What IS allowed in discussion forum messages?
Links to generic pages for discussion or education purposes.
A SHORT message and one link to your site is allowed IN YOUR
SIGNATURE (edit your profile to add a signature).
If a particular item is under discussion and a link will
demonstrate a point, it MIGHT be okay if it's not just a ruse.
We are here to get to know one another and share ideas, not to
recruit one another.
Messages that do not follow these rules will have to be deleted.
Repeat offenders will be banned.
Do not e-mail any person posting here for reasons of promoting
your business. Any reports of this will be investigated and the
spammer may be banned from this site.
Rules for Advertising forums
Ads are allowed in the ads section IN THE APPROPRIATE AD FORUM.
If the same ad shows up in all the ad forums, they will be
deleted. Inappropriateness will cause it to be deleted. This is
decided by the moderators.
The moderators don't want to be the bad guys, so don't make us
delete your message or ban anyone!
Be nice and no one gets hurt,
LOL.
The following aren't allowed:
Chain letters, gifting, gambling, casinos, lotteries, gaming of
any kind, downline clubs, HYIP, malls, offshore schemes,
investment/stock schemes, non-mlm, no physical product available
to the public, adult, dating, egold games, pay to's (e.g. pay to
read), etc.
In short it must be a viable MLM/Network Marketing business with
a real product available to the public. Income can not be
derived solely from recruiting....you must have saleable
products/services.
Biz Ad posts must clearly describe/disclose at a minimum (via
website link):
* company
* rep cost (start-up & all recurring)
* comp plan (complete detail)
* retail/wholesale product (s) (with costs)
Do not do any of the following as it is considered forum/board
spamming:
* advertising of any kind in any discussion board (e.g. blatant
ads obviously .... but also no personal links and no
"invitations". In other words don't solicit in the discussion
boards.)
* post multiple ads in 1 day to 1 (same) ad board (this includes
replying to your own ad to "bump" it up...when no ones else has
replied. You can reply to a member reply in the same day).
* replying to your own ad with no meaningful content to "bump"
it up....example a smiley face.
* post the same ad to more than 1 ad board...same day or not.
* post the same ad repeatedly without deleting previous ads.
* post off topic/wrong board (e.g biz op in the Product or
Support Ad boards)
* reply to another's ad with an ad of your own
* post inappropriate comments of any kind including, but not
limited to derogatory, racist, threatening, pornographic,
vulgar, abusive, and so on (the usual).
* use the PM or email Member features to send solicitations for
product/services or a business opportunity. This is UCE and an
abuse of these features & the Members.
