You know, if you've been here so long you should know the rules. I've been here the same amount of time and the rules about advertising are the same now as they were then. As in, you are not allowed to post ANY advertisements on the forums. An advertisement is any site that you may have a personal interest in, and is counted as spam. You can link to your site in your signature as long as it's not a forum.
No one here cares, okay? Deal with it, get over it. We don't care. We won't care. And you have to abide by the rules HERE while you are here.

Hmm.. last I checked the dictionary wasn't wrong. If you guys go about changing things meaning just to make a pointless rule then something's wrong.

In fact, both descriptions count as spamming.
Spamming an internet forum in general, is when a user posts something which is off-topic or doesn’ t have anything to do with the current subject. Also, a post that doesn’ t contribute to the thread whatsoever is also considered spam in some cases. A third form of Forum Spamming is where a person repeatedly posts about a certain subject in a manner that is unwanted by (and possibly annoying to) the general population of the forum. Lastly there is also the case where a person posts messages solely for the purpose of increasing his or her ranking on the forum. In a broader sense, advertising on forums where it is not wanted is known as spamming and is generally seen as an annoyance.

Obviously I have to clear up the difference between these two as it seems no one here knows the difference.SPAM: Repeatedly posting a post or clogging up a chat window with the same post/text until it's clogged up the particular window.
ADVERTISEMENT: When you tell someone to go somewhere by giving a link or by commercials etc.
These are the differences so now you know.
dude you cant walk in here and want to change what 90,000 people follow.
you are the only one who seems to have a problem with it, if you dont like it find another forum.
