But if you recommend open source wallets without mentioning the one whose advertisement you are wearing, then you have no place on my team, since I see this as a disparaging attitude towards my work and the advertised project.[/b]
I don't agree with icopress's above statement at all. It might be bad etiquette to bad mouth whatever you're advertising in your signature space (and it would certainly cause a bit of confusion/head-scratching to anyone who might not know much about sig campaigns), but requiring members to mention the product/service in their sig space if they're engaged in a discussion about a set of products/services in which it belongs is just not good--
unless that sort of posting is explicitly prohibited in the campaign's rules, and even then I think it's crossing a line.
So the question is, should the forum introduce any rules on compelled/restricted posting, or do we let anything go, including shilling campaigns?
No. Any issue like this should be a matter between the campaign manager and the participants. There's no way Theymos would institute a rule of any kind dealing with how members should post when they're advertising stuff.
