Shaun,
Posting e-mail links in a public forum can always lead to problems.
We don't think it's a good idea, but we don't normally stop e-mail links provided our forum is not being used to obtain e-mails from people who are then marketed with a commercial product, a ********, or taken to competitor sites etc.
There have been plenty of instances in the past where we have found site owners, scammers etc. offering something "free" by e-mail in order to promote their site and/or their products.
Our company has spent many thousands of dollars on this forum in recent months, and we are continuing to spend money. We need to recoup those expenses.
I'm sure you'll agree that is not really fair on us nor our paying advertisers for others to piggy back on the work we have done on this forum to obtain free advertising.
If someone wants to market a product or promote a competitor site, directly, or via e-mail contact then they need to contact us and come to a commercial arrangement.
Management.
