Not that I want to get into the fight...I'll just mention on the off-idea...

Isn't clicking links in the signature a user's choice first of all...and so you can advertise through a tiny link and break the rule, sure, but what limits the idea of advertising?

Also, what about the ASDA banner I get at the VERY top of EVERY page here on RPG? Isn't that advertising?

But, I'm deletin' my egg before any madness happens with THAT barrel of gunpowder.

But that ASDA banner serves a purpoce I would think. Or else a lot of privilages would be taken from the forum.

It goes without saying that ASDA banners and links to other sites in forum posts are different. Roleplayerguild.com is a website that uses bandwidth which costs money, and someone has to pay for it. The ASDA banners help pay for the forums.

Links in sigs do not pay for the forums.

Most forums that don't use advertising require a membership fee instead.

Sometimes i really hate to be an admin. Some people who were forced to obey some petty rules just go around and call me corrupt. Not to mention all those unnecessary whining they do. "But it was google.. blah blah.. i ain't no salesman.. blahblah cry.. "

Okay, screw the reasoning and logic. What the Hell is the problem now, what needs fixing, and why am I starting to get bashed in particular based from a rather different problem that I doubt would've come to light had not the first problem been realized?
You need to get back to earth. I'm not doing this for my own entertainment, and not even for just to screw you.
It seems you missed my answer for the first problem so i copy it here.

I checked your link and it was a link to a game which is not welcome in any ways.

So, Do NOT advertise other sites plx. Happy now? As for what you do with your sig after this i don't care until i find another unwelcome link in it.
Plus, You say all the time. "It's just google blah blah, its awwwright". Who cares about that anyway? The problem isn't that its on Google-whatever. The problem is those writings should be on this site. If you link some "work of yours" from other site, it is advertising.

Also, the dragon eggs were approved a long time ago, except if they go further than the 200px height and the additional 3-4 lines of text.
deviantArt is an exception as well, though it has folders for "literacy", image host sites are alright, because RPGuild isn't capable of hosting your photos and drawn art.

Is it understandable this time?

*Sigh.*

I don't even care anymore. I'm just going to delete the f*cking thread.

I've found that it's rather pointless arguing on the Internet, for reasons I bet that you probably wouldn't even think of.
