We (staff) were asked to stop advertising mixing services.
As for gambling services, then that's simply because of my religious beliefs.
theymos asked this for obvious reasons. What I'm curious about is whether any law enforcement was there behind the decision.
I don't think there is, it's more of a precautionary measure, an insight from a website operator's perspective
Nevertheless, staff were asked to stop advertising mixing services. We are promoting mixing services. Will it be an issue for bitcointalk forum in general? What about the people advertising the mixer? Would it be better to quit advertising mixer services? I was thinking about this ever since I have seen OmegaStarScream's quoted post. Is it time to think about this?
It frees them from direct liability if ever, there's a difference from direct forum advertisement where the forum administrator is getting paid for showing ads and what members are promoting, signature feature is an incentive for members to their promote services and products not endorsed by the forum.
