Justify a Rule?

May anyone be willing to justify this rule for me?

Shared and reseller offers are only allowed if you have an active VPS offering and have published or are publishing these offers in this website!

EDIT: I just realized a posted this in the wrong category, can the moderators please move this to the right one? I can't seem to be able to!

    Avoid people who only post offers and don't participate in LET community.

    That actually made no sense to what the rule says! XD Mind telling me what it means by "ACTIVE VPS OFFERING," ?

    LET maybe is somewhat about running things on low end servers like small virtual private servers. Not really about web hosting at all. So web hosting doesn't make sense in the first place, but the rule prevents too many people just posting web hosting offers that no one cares about.

    Personally I think deleting all the offers sections is good idea, but whatever.

    Strange. My offer clearly had VPS listing and pricing but then got taken off? I am confused. But then the advertising section is a good place to express something and maybe people like me and you can find something that is cheaper and possibly better than the old one that we use or want, don't you agree?

  • You need to have two separate listings in the correct categories, that is my understanding of that rule..

  • Aha. I think I maybe understanding now!

  • mikhomikho Member, Host Rep

    If I remember correct your offer was removed because you didn't have 5 posts before posting an offer.
    You also posted VPS offers in the wrong category.

    Read up on the rules, ask question if something is unclear, then post an offer.

    Looks like all his posts since are promoting his own company or in this thread. Clearly a community minded individual :-p

    Guess I work for some old fogies then.

  • Guys, come on. Be bit nicer, get some positive attitude in yourself. So what if I advertise? I want to grow my business. People ask for something I give them some recommendations. If I am bothering you, please let me know.

    You come to us on our playground means you play by the rules in this community.
    If thats to hard for you to do, feel free to "grow your business elsewhere".
    If you can read/understand the rules and follow then you are more then welcome here and then you can advertize.

    This. This style of forum is easily ruined if people are allowed to just drop in, advertise, and drop out. It would drown out conversation. Forum style is an important detail.

    I never said it was hard? I just said I didn't know what it meant, Simple. Anyways I guess I will stay on this forum and just chat (advertise a bit too to answer people!) then I will post my ad. Anyways you are free to close this now as I need no more replies ;)

    Grammer Nazi: It's more than welcome, not more then. Just keep it in mind xD

    Do realize that that is your problem, not that of LET (or any other forum). You are in no way entitled to advertisement on a third-party site, if you fail to follow the rules.

  • Are you 2 still talking? I have stated the problem has been solved. Stop posting nonsence...

    Nah. Maybe it could teach some people a thing or two :)

    I laughed, you stated you're a grammar nazi, spelt grammAr wrong, then instead of writing two you wrote 2.

    let me correct you

    It's not "nonsence", and I don't like your attitude at all. So no, I won't stop posting anything.
