I see...
Then I may suggest to give a little change for rule number 4. ✌😁 to make it "No Referral Codes (Ref Links)" removing the word "spam" on it to avoid being confused of users in the future.
AFAIK there may be certain rare cases where posting a referral link is allowed. Changing the wording into a blanket ban wouldn't accurately reflect that. That and it'd also distance it from the
source material.
Then how about this:
Limit Posting of ref links:
-only once.
-only in one specific Board (Off-Topic)
-only for thread starters, project owners.
-only with a bit slight of advertising.
Ex:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5241953.msg54259534#msg54259534Note: (There is no ref link on that link yet)
-No redundant threads for ref links/advertising promos.
Violating the rules for ref links:
-Temp Ban 30 days
-Perma Ban
This is only my suggestion, just to have a clear thought on ref links. And for users not to be confused anymore in the future.
