  Old  Rules update

Hello everyone, just updated the rules to include our signature size policy of 450x60, anyone who is currently using a signature bigger than this better change it or face a warning

Also, i've added a new rule under "general rules" the new rule is....


Threads or posts may be removed if we feel they do not contribute anything
Over the past few weeks i've seen a serious decline in any real discussion, a few members tend to post links from other sites and then one word comments like "this is so cool" it's pointless and doesn't imo contribute anything to talkfreelance. Other occasions I see members replying to threads with "lol" and "ok thanks", again pointless.

Basically, i'm going to start cracking down on pointless posts and stupid threads to make talkfreelance a better place to be around, this will mean removing those posts and also reducing any offenders post counts.

That's all for now

Robson, I have a customized hack laying around in which you can mark posts as irrelevant and show up default as a minimized post. Are you interested?

Hmm, what were the size limitations for the signatures before? Also, good job for starting to delete unwanted posts, or unhelpful. Should make this cleaner.
