    Default Need some clarification about a rule in the User agreement

    In the rule and regulation section it is specied that it is prohibited to post any links to other web-sites.

    Today I got two PMs regarding a Mail in Rebate I posted about, both people wanted to know if I have extras of the form for trade. I told them that I had to trade for them myself and them proceeded to give them name/url of that trading site.

    My question, was this sharing of trading info via PM, a voilation of the law as specifed in the Useragremment?

    Just want to make sure I am not breaking any rules as this was certianly not my intention.

    I have not read all of the User Agreement, but I would think that as long as it's in pm's, that it's ok.

    Uh...yeah...I might need some clarification as well, I have already posted links regarding planting sod, and growing poinsettias. I thought it was talking about referral links...that those should be in the 'paid' portion of the website.

    Let Heidi and I work through that one - I think the sod links are probably ok.

    So you can't post links to a freebie? Like an Olay sample or a Dove sample?

    Okay, now "I'm confused" lol! Do you mean no links to referral type sites where the poster gets credit/money for a certain number of hits? Or do you mean a link to a freebie from Dove that is done as a public service announcement type of thing?

    ok let me try and clarify...LOL

    links that make you money go here: http://www.hotcouponworld.com/forums...splay.php?f=61

    links that are just for the benifit of the site like freebies etc can be posted on the site. If your running your own freebie site...see link above. But if you posting a link to walmart.com's freebies etc thats fine.
