I have seen that this forum does not consider it inappropriate when some member makes a post or thread about a competing forum. I am a member of other popular forums and they do not allow mention of competing forums as it is free advertising for them.
What is the opinion of members about this? Is it fine allowing members here to promote or mention competing forums without paying this forum owner or taking his permission ?
Every forum has its own rules and guidelines I don't think Bitcointalk will be concerned with that, Bitcointalk is just too huge and too popular to even think of competing against other forums, except for Mixers they are not banning any links, both forums should not be competing against each other as they are on the same niche and they are promoting the same technology, Bitcointalk will always remain the best and the number one forum when it comes to everything about Cryptocurrency, it will be forever attached to Bitcoin's creator Satoshi Nakamoto.
