TER says the guidelines were not followed by the OP so the entire thread was pulled. The only thing I can recall about the thread that appears to be the issue is the OP had a link in the post.
I attached the link that has the guidelines. Check it out. Scroll down to the topic, THEME DAY & FRIDAY SHILL DAY GUIDELINES. BTW: this link is the "Message Board Policies" which is at the upper right of most of the message boards.
To Board Admin: If I missed something please fill us in.
Looking forward to a great photo theme thread next week.
add the link to her website, if I am reading the rules and guidelines correctly. I have been doing that for all of my posts and didn't realize it was against the rules. A shame to pull the whole thread because of that- there were some awesome pictures on thursday!
...because I have seen that a provider placing her link in her replies to an OP is ok but she can't put a link if her's is the OP. That's with normal discussion threads. Photo Theme threads I'm not so sure. But if I read the guidelines correctly there should be no links in the photo posts. It's because they don't want them to be ads (or have the appearance of ads) which would break the one ad every 7 days rule. Additionally TER is allowing us on the 60 & over board to have a Photo Theme Thread on Thursday even though it is a national board. We are the only national board that is allowed to have one.
At least I am grateful that Ihad the chance to see them all before thay got pulled. WOW great pics all. Hope all goes well next Thursday. i agree shouldn't have been necessary to pull the whole thread. maybe they will explain further.
that this is a general discussion board and NOT an ad board. I believe that's one of the distinctions TER made when they split the regional ad boards from the regiional discussion boards--discussion boards = no ads, they belong on the ad boards. Agree or not, it's a logocal distinction (IMHO).
