Re: Affordable Webhosting with HostRocket
This is absolutely not intended to be hostile; I'm a Viatalk customer and have appreciated Brendan's participation here for years. I'm just wondering how DSLR mods distinguish this kind of post and thread from ordinary forum spam?
I mean, I know the service is legitimate and the OP is well meaning, but there have been plenty of other "Great new xxxx service click here" posts that have been excised from various forums as spam...

| I think the header in this forum does a great job explaining the situation, as well as the mods' stance on these kind of posts:
said by forum header :
Recommendations of web hosts by customers of the web host are welcome. Web hosting firms may announce good deals under these rules.

| Ah so. Thanks! So my problem was writing before reading. 
(Edit: By which I mean to say, sorry, never mind.)

I'm just wondering how DSLR mods distinguish this kind of post and thread from ordinary forum spam? The community here does a pretty good job of determining which hosts are legit and which ones are run by thirteen year olds on their mom's cable connection. The Webhosting Hall of Shame proves that.

The webhosting forum is one of the rare exceptions on the site where advertising is allowed - within the rules of course. The major caveat is that by doing so you open yourself up to criticism, both good and bad. |
