I know that natskins and cliquemb are considered competion sites, but how do you explain competition here at CB. I was wondering, what if another forum was to support friendster, or makeshift skins? Would that still be considered competiting, they don't support xanga or myspace skins.. anyways I was wondering, if someone can answer this question that would be great.

Well, Jusun specifically said no advertising of forums unless it is your own (and of course, non-competing). I wouldn't consider the forums that offer friendster or makeshift skins as competing but I don't think you would still be allowed to say, link them in your sig.

well I'm helping run a forum supporting makeshift and friendster skins, so that means I'm not allowed to advertise it? I know I can add it to topsites, but can I advertise it in my sig? whistling.gif

I suppose it wouldn't really matter if it is or not seeing as how the rules have been changed regarding what's competing and advertising forums and such on the site. And Closed.
