You mean something along the lines of this: YoJoe.com Forums - View Single Post - did every one see this
Thanks for pointing that out. All of those post are "news related" and subject matter that YoJoe.com did not have at the time or was exclusive to HissTank.com.

So lets try this, Since you don't offer a regional forum. If I post a link to the tristatevipers.com web-sit to try to bring people together who live around new york. I'm wrong right. Becauce that would take pople away for your site so they can use a service you don' offer.
You could also start a Buy/Sale/Trade thread in the BST forum which caters to NY tristate residents. So long as you are active in that thread, and encourge others to use it, links to tristatevipers.com would be allowed in normal conversation. Generally, you wouldn't be allowed to start a thread called "Tristatevipers.com" - Come visit us here!, and that's it. Does that make sense? |

but drive traffic and make money.
Well, I'm disturbed and disgusted by this sudden move. IDK about everyone else, but i'm a bit discourage to be in here now and discuss our fuckin love for Joes without limitations and restrictions! Last edited by Agent-GHQ; 10-27-2008 at 03:36 PM.. |

So, wait...this means I can no longer post links to my toy blog (excepting the link in my signature) when I have updated it with new content? Even though I wind up discussing the contents with people here rather than there

Dude, what are you talking about. Do you really believe that the sole purpose of this site is to make money? There are a lot more angles that can be done on the internet to make money, and a lot less stressful than dealing with this type of shit, than running a GI Joe site.
We like toys, GI Joes, and for me, Transformers. That is why we do this. Sponsors, etc, are to cover costs and secondary in nature. I am trying to be politically correct here, and clear with the fans of this or any site, but that's just BS. |

In fact, to further clarify our non-desire to restrict anything, and just make sure this community is strong, and threads are useful and relevant, I am going to do 2 things right now.
1. A "PIMP YOUR STUFF" thread. You can link to any site, related to GI Joe's, for any reason. Their non-news updates, their non-news content, their saying that they think the color red is awesome. Whatever you want. Again, news and new-content based info, reviews by personal fans, are allowed to be referenced in their own threads already. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...tml#post392984 2. A Deals and Coupons thread, for stores other than sponsors. Sponsors are needed to keep larger websites running, look at any of the others and you will see that. But to counter act any "OMG they are restricting my freedomz!" type feelings, you can use that thread to find and discuss any deal from any store on the internet. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...ns-thread.html That keeps those things contained, so that there aren't 100 pimp my stuff threads clogging up the forum list, and regular Hisstankers, or lurkers, can have that resource. If that doesn't quell any of this communist accusation BS, I dunno what will. |

Without trying to be snarky: Starting a thread dedicated to the thing that started this fiasco, the new JoeCanuck newsletter (which does have a letter from Hasbro and a figure review, among other articles).

I am sure this has already been brought to your attention but
destro, tony, you do realize that half a dozen other joe forums are plotting some kind of a boycott right? I dont know if you care, not sure if you should honestly, but if you do, I would start sending out emails to calm some people done. |
