There not been a change, just a hardening up of the rules..... we have always run the site with the help of some sponsors and some deep personal pockets.. it is not a business, nor is run by people who gain anythingg from it financially.. it is just a hobby which has grown.. grown into something serious infact, with circa 8 million hits a week and over 5000 registed usuers. Over the last while, various users have seen fit to use this vehicle for their own gain without asking, thinking it may get lost on the volume of traffic... we try to read every post, which on some days is not a 10 minute job.... and find loads of posts soliciting business, providing links etc. I think in your personal case, your history with rs4.org was deemed qualification to allow posts promoting your work, others have been less subtle.
As we dont want to turn this into a fee paying 'club' and would like to cover costs including the new server which is on test and will be installed soon, it would be nice if companies and individuals respected the etiquette of not practising participation for purely commercial gain, as I have already explained to Marcus, we welcome input from everyone, that is the point of the forum, but we cant sit back and let others take the gains for our hard work and investment without getting something in return.
Nuff said?
