Added two more posting tips for thread title prefixes "UNVERIFIED:" and "VERIFIED:" inspired by Runamuck's celebrity fanmail thread.

To me it makes more sense to note received in the original thread.

Jul 26th, 2005 12:54 AM #35It seems more and more people are posting coupons in this freebee section. Sure the coupon may be free however most are worthless unless you spend money on the coupon item. paying $'s does not = freebee. Originally Posted by Scooter

Exactly why it's on my list of what isn't a freebie. Currently there aren't enough to warrant a separate coupon forum, so technically they should be posted in Hot Deals, but the moderators aren't interested in enforcing that.

The realistic issue here is that RFD is a business. They provide a service (these message boards) and make money by delivering our eyeballs to their advertisers. They also make money through their referral links.
Everytime a user posts a referral link, that takes money out of RFD's account. I think they're perfectly within their rights to deny affiliate links. Reply With Quote

I really question how many people read this thread. Coupons and other non-freebee offers are always being posted. Its clear these sections have been set up for a reason.

Can I say "use my rfd username as a referral" and not provide any link?
