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.

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

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?

Everything is spam to anyone who doesn't like it. I tend to skip all the daily OTDs and only go for the irregular OTDs (such as my own). Big Grin | :-D

It appears that I'm not the only one who thinks that.

RyanDev wrote:

Not my site - I stand to gain nothing by it and it was not my very first post. I was here for many years before doing that and it appears that one or two enlightened souls actually like it.

No, just very earnest with some odd ideas. Pretty much like the rest of us.

Sign a petition calling for the boycott of Israel until it returns to its legal 1967 borders.
