***************************************************************************
Advertising / Third Party developers.

By strict rule, only “Approved Merchants” are allowed to post advertisements of their products on the forum. Advertisements posted by individuals who are not approved will be deemed as spam and therefore treated accordingly. This could very likely result in you being banned from the forums.

If you wish to become an approved merchant, I ask that you first simply hang out on the forum as a regular member. When you reach a post count of 50+ you can then request to be considered an approved merchant by sending me a Private Message or email.

Your activity on the forum will be reviewed at this point to ensure your efforts to reach 50 posts was genuine and you are not someone only focused on selling their products. Once approved, I will modify your account to display “Approved Merchant” under your User ID. It is only then are you allowed to make any reference to your products on the forum.

For Approved Merchants Only.
It is recommend that you place a small advertisement in your Signature (See your profile). This advertisement will then be displayed at the very end of every single post you make. The more you help out on the forum, the more people will see your advertisement.

Also, when you have any exciting news about your product you wish to share, it’s advised you start a new thread in order to get the most attention from the forum members.

Kind regards
Sharp.

Owner.

Hi all.
There's going to be a change to the wording of the forum rules on advertising in a few days and I need your help for a moment.

A “Special Ranking” has been put in place in order to help bring additional attention to you as your account will stand out a little different than others. You will see “Approved Merchant” and a animated line under that.

As of right now I've updated the account of every third party developer I can think of who have been approved to advertise on the forums, but I'm sure that I've not remembered everyone so I need your help.

Can you please reply to this thread if I've missed your name. It's important I get everyone who is approved updated to this new special ranking before the changes come into play.

Anyone currently on the forum who is not approved, never asked, and would like to be, if you have more than 50 posts to your name please reply to this thread requesting to be added so we can review your account.

Thanks a million.
Sharp.

Could I as well? It's been a bit since I've had my old patches site up, but my new website for my new business surely will have those things very soon.

Thank you!

Indeed, Stephen has his own unique Special Ranking on the forum already, but it's still important that I make the graphic available on this account to just for the sake of consistency and making it clear for anyone on the forum.

I'm not happy with the handshake logo (takes up too much height and looks poor against the dark them) so I'm going to replace it with a simple graphic that says Approved Merchant. That way the same logo can be used across any special ranking if need be.

Regards
Sharp.

I like the new graphic! The handshake was a bit much.
Thanks!

Hi all.
I hope everyone's updated to the new accounts?

The new rules will kick in this weekend.

Here's a copy of the current draft and probably what will be the final version. Any questions or amendments you would like to see, please let me know.

Regards
Sharp.


**********************
EDIT....
Rules now available in the very first post for easier access.
