We've been having the steady problem of people posting their sites and advertising. I think it's because I put my little topic about Pokemon Rancher up there. I didn't include a link, I only told what it was about...
Advertising is agaisnt the TOS.. We should do something about, besides banning people. Like, an exreme rule. As most of you know, Amber was the one who posted the most about her sites, advertising them and what not. She eventually got BANNED (Thank you, Zeki). What we need to do is educate the members on it.
Or something.. Bah.
The main point is, if it doesn't stop, Kantex could lose is members from banning.. Rather, some of it's members.
Thanks for reading and concerning your time... Please leave a comment about the suggestion, too, if you want.

Yeah, I agree. Something does need to be done. Suddenly these members are advertising, when they've been here for more than a month or so and I guess they must think that they can do it now. It must be stopped.

Why don't we just delete the threads?

I have the solution. Next person to advertise gets a one week banning. Any more infractions will result in a longer banning.

I totally agree with Zeki. I've had enough of deleting threads and giving warnings. Next time I notice someone advertising...
Well, let's just say that I won't be very nice for a couple of hours. Rawr.

Okay, I got a question. Is advertizing for sites againest the Kantex rules or the Proboards rules? Cause I am sorta confused. And is advertizing ANY site whatever it maybe against the rules even if it isn't a Proboards site? Sorry if these questions sound ignorant but I am confused. I really don't see what is so bad about people advertizing but if it is against the rules then it must be delt with. Rules were not made to be broken.

Pokemon Kantex does not allow advertising of sites. Proboards does not care about advertisment.

Sorry Mac, but that is not true. It is the Proboards Terms Of Service that states there should be no advertising on the boards. They will even delete a whole forum if they think there's too much advertisement. So they /do/ care.

Well, actually, I've been thinking about that little line on the terms of service. Maybe ADVERTISING meant like advertising products and things to sell. Because on almost every warriors site there is an advertising board and they haven't been deleted. Although it is still against this site's rules.

Sorry. I should be more accountable for the adds that come on these forums. I just don't like offending people. If you have a complaint (PM me) about the number of adds popping up, I'll talk to the people posting them up on these forums. If they won't negotiate, I will delete them.
