Yeah, generally advertising isn't accepted too well on forums, although genuine recommendations if someone asks for a suggestion are always sought after.

That aside, welcome to Cycle Chat! :smile:

+1 to all of that. May I suggest a quick line dropped to Admin would be a good thing. :thumbsup:

Lee, welcome to CycleChat - just so you know (I'm sure you'll take a minute or two to read our guidelines when you get chance ;)) we don't allow advertising on the forums, but we do allow people to link to their web site in their signature. You can edit your signature here: http://www.cyclechat.net/account/signature

I'm sure you'll be able to offer some good advice to people and if you would like to offer a general discount to CycleChat members - just send me the details and I'll add it to the Discounts forum (which is only visible to members).

Thanks,
Shaun :biggrin:
 
May have been a bit quick to get on my high horse!

I don't think you were. It wasn't a straight forward advert placed accidentally. It was classic spam pretending to be a third party recommendation of someone else's products when they were products made by him and his dad. Lee knew what he was doing

Hi Shaun,

Thanks for your advice, I have read the terms and guidlines, and am now fully aware of the site etiquette.
Great site and I promise to be well behaved from now on. I didnt think I had upset so many of your members by mentioning my dads website.

Regards
Lee

You didn't upset me: it's not as if you were pretending to be something you're not.

Agreed it was wrong for you to advertise as you did, but it was obvious to me who you were and that you were "guilty" of no more than being over-zealous; just don't start posting recommendations for Viagra or data-entry jobs.

Too many self-appointed defenders of CC's virtue...
