![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Rules & other things for newbies and more...I've brought together links to all things that newbies, and those who have been here longer may need to know, and might stop the same questions being asked repeatedly. Referral links This is contained within other links, but NO referral links are to be posted anywhere within these forums other than when a trade has been agreed within the trade section. When you have reached the top of a conga please either pm a mod with your link or report the post including your link in this, otherwise no links should be posted at all!

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | How about putting at the top of that post "No Referral Links Allowed", since people aren't likely to read through all the links.

| FJ Network Owner | Meant to catch you online earlier jon but missed you - can you not just set up a rule - if posts are less than 25 say then http://www. is replaced by NO BLOODY LINKS or similar?

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I've seen this on a few other forums. Some even show a pop-up warning the user that they're not allowed to post links. Maybe you could also add that ref links are allowed in the message bit so people too lazy to read the rules but who may go on to be good members aren't put off by so many bashing posts. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Very good, but i think the exceem staff page needs to be updated - theres more mods arent there (cant think, but im sure theres more!!)?? http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/infor...eem-staff.html As for links i think a automatic link edit for new/low post count members would be good, but could lead to more spam as they attempt to get their link up by reposting it a few times!
