quote:- whole 'commercial posts not allowed' issue
Hi,
this has been discussed in the past. While I was really disappointed that we can't say "hey, daz has got this or that on sale" anymore, they did clarify some time ago when this came up about what was tolerated and what wasn't. Rendero admin stated very clearly in a previous thread that if someone had news about something that was new and highly significant to poser, even if it was a commercial product, then that would be allowed, and I think they even gave the example of a new version. They said a new V4 morph didn't count as significant.
But for just ordinary content, they reckon there is plenty and we don't need to post about it. They will allow us to post about sales and things if somene asks about a particular product.
ie poser itself and SM are exempt. Because it is a poser forum. Without poser where would we be?
And they have previously clarified these points. I wasn't happy about not being able to post about content as content is what we use all the time to make our pics, but they did explain their rules. it's their forum and their rules.
I must say, like to hear SM news.
Love esther
I aim to update it about once a month. Oh, and it's free!
