    Forum Guidelines updated [January 26, 2007]

    We added one line to the signature section of forum guidelines.

    Bolded and blue below.

    Signatures:
    Must be setup in your profile, and not manually added to your messages.
    May not contain any pricing, plan, sales, etc. details. "Free" is considered a price in the context of this rule.
    There is no best host. There is only the host that's best for you.

    Good move. I had always assumed price implied "free" as a price anyway? But good that it is now explicitly stated

    This was always the rule - free has always been a price. It just happens often enough that hopefully adding this line to the rules will stop people from doing instead of making us change their signatures and alert/warn them.

    Hmm good move. so the word FREE should not be included at all or it depends upon some cases.

    I assume that it shouldn't be included. Though I guess there's a bit of a gray area as someone could say "Fantastico included FREE with all plans."

    Then that covers under the "May not contain..plan, sales..details."
    Big things coming soon
