Is there any way for me to advertise a small local show without breaking any forum rules? The organizer wants to try and get the word out about his small show and sale, and he asked me to see if I could get the word out. Any help would be appreciated.
Please read the forum policies that are at the top of the page — there seems to be a special area for “Coming Events” where that type of information is allowed.
Mentioning the show itself may be okay here as long as no items for sale are listed because of the “No Advertising” policy.
Okay, thank you. I was given a flyer to provide information, so I would just mention things such as were it is and when it is. Any clue how to get to the upcoming events section? I cannot seem to find it.
The forum policy in question:
- No advertising. Our forums should not be used as an advertising medium for companies who want to promote their business or products, or by individuals who want to promote their items for sale or their eBay auctions. Our users are the drivers behind this policy. They don’t want the useful information in our forums watered down with posts that are nothing more than advertisements. If you’d like to advertise on our site, scroll to the bottom of this page and click the “Advertise” link. Show promoters; check out our Coming Events section. You can post your events free; click “Add My Event” in the left column.
Click the ‘Coming Events’ link above. Scroll down to ‘Submissions’ and click ‘Add My Event’. Fill in the blanks on the form in the middle of the screen. When you get to the bottom enter the validation code you’ll see there so they know it’s not a bot and click ‘Submit’.
Thank you very much. I will make sure to fill this out.
