The Bay Area's loss could be our gain.

You should read up on TER in the Self Help/Newbie Manual especially on how and when you can link to your website.

Now you must not do so unless you are placing an ad, which can only be done on local ad boards and a few other select boards.

You can link your website if you are not the originator of a thread however, but you must be sure you have an interactive TER logo on your site's first or second page.

There's a lot more to it, so I would definitely read up on it.

Welcome to TER.

Board. Many of the "refugees" are finding their way to the SF regional board. Admin has a "pinned" post there giving them general info, and telling them to introduce themselves here.

Hope you find your way around here.  
One quick note: Don't mention the other site's name or even initials. TER doesn't like that, just like that site didn't let you mention TER. I don't think just because they were shut down, that TER has relaxed the rules. TER is trying to make the refugees from that place welcome, but I think you still can't say the name or initials. You can say "the other place," "the old place," "the site that was shut down," etc. But don't say the name or you might get your post deleted.  

Check out the self help center for lots of good info and come back and ask questions here on the newbie board. Good luck in your new hobby home. :)

I think it's good you did that. I was just letting swim know, as I realized by his post to Malia that he was unaware of your post on the SF board.

I also think it would be a good idea for you to post a similar message (as the one you did for SF) on this board and "pin " it to the top.

We encourage providers to introduce themselves on both the Newbie Board and their regional board.    
   
 This way they get a friendly board with a wealth of information about TER by using the Newbie Board and on their regional board the locals get to know them better.

Thank you so much for your input! I look forward to getting to know folks better as well as continue to gain knowledge (on both the provider as well as the hobbiest side).
