I built this site purely for a learning exercise in work. I wanted to hopefully see if anyone sees it as a fun area where people can be creative with code, in a way which may not compile however may produce a chuckle rather than an exception so check it out here -

Humorous Code.

Thanks, and anything you think can enhance this site please comment.

not really spamming. Genuine feedback, I know this. As I said a work exercise. I will develop further authentication methods

No: spam.

You join today, you post one message, and it's a link to your site.
That is a form known as "site driving spam" and it means "bye-bye"...

Cool. A non-profit driven website, just to add. I aint making a thing out of it, merely hoping some feedback and you know for some developers to maybe find some interest in it. Could actually teach, depending on how the 'potential' community it creates, contribute.

Doesn't matter.
Do you think the people who do pay money (which keeps this site running) to advertise here care about that distinction, even if it is true?

I do see people have their site in their sig all the time and no one seems to complain. Unless it is a link to something that is for sale.

It is getting complained about by some members, and something is done about it[^]

Actually, that supports my point.

There's a difference between a user and someone who creates an account just to show off their website.

Definitely true.

I didn't feel OP was only trying to show off site.

It's effectively a one page site using bootstrap. So what? You're using CP to promote your site and that is a non-no.

I do recall your sig for a long time. Sniff | :^)

Just saying.

I agree but that was my sig and it didn't say: here, look at my amazing site and I never made a post explicitly extolling the virtues of said site and proclaiming how clever I am for doing nothing special.

So a sig is OK but a dedicated post is not? Seems a little bit reasonable.

If we're talking about just the Lounge and not the Soapbox, then sure. Poke tongue | ;-P

So, how is your APOD not SPAM?

So if you own it then it is SPAM? That is your criteria?
