You know what, time for a slight policy change:

After consulting and discussing with BadBear, I've decided that it's time to let people discuss a bit more freely about services. Although BadBear's earlier posts hinted that service posts are a "no go" on most cases, after contacting him a couple of days ago, I believe he has changed his thinking, possibly due to the community's opinion and suggestions (told you it would help Grin

).

As per this shift, the following type of posts are now allowed in coin threads:

Posts about block explorers. ("Here is a new block explorer for this coin" type posts)
If a service comes up in a disussion and directly related to the coin, it's allowed
"We're up" messages for pools (if it's only once per thread)
"This exchange added coin" type posts for exchanges (again, if it's only once per thread)

However, said rules only apply to those posts that ARE NOT large, distracting with images, or markup codes (lots of bold and colors) and other traits of an advertisement. If a post is considered an advertisement will be determined on case by case basis.

Post your suggestions and opinions regarding this rule and how it should be improved and it might get implemented.

Well done.
You guys may not believe this, but the change of heart will in fact make the mods and admin here appear stronger.

Edit: Time to unsticky this, no/

Advertisement spam is still not allowed:
