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 ?
Oops, this forum is not like other forums and maybe that is why it stands out from the rest of them. The reach cannot be in competition with other forums that are not up to its capacity or standard. If they perceive theirs as competition and not allow their users name other forum, it is okay and it is their rules there. This forum does not even take payment from companies advertising their contents here as far as I know. So I don’t see why they will collect payment for people just by mentioning other forums here. As a member of the forum, the rules here are just perfect and it is what is keeping the forum alive and respected till date.
