Attention: South Florida Home Inspectors

it is gone

Michael Meeker,

I suggest you contact the owner of this site regarding your business advertising and solicitation plan/activities on this forum. Realize you're "new" here, but you may also wish to review the forum rules you agreed to when you registered here.

You can see the forum rules, which Brain has reposted in this sticky announcement (which is the first in each topic subject area of the board), here:
http://www.inspectionnews.net/home_inspection/building-envelope-home-inspection-commercial-inspection/announcements.html

I'll quote from a portion of the "FORUM RULES" on that post:


Please note that unsolicited advertisements, chain letters, pyramid schemes and solicitations are STRICTLY forbidden. If you would like to take advantage of an excellent opportunity to promote your services/products in front of 5,000+ inspector members, please contact us.

You'll find Brian's contact information links in his signature lines.

totally sick man

because it was wrong

[H.G. Watson, Sr.]

Well i was just trying to offer to work with any fellow inspectors out there. If I have done something wrong then whoever is in charge feel free to remove this post. if i have not done anything wrong then leave it be.:)


is my offer sick or what i did? if it is what i did i never even thought it would be offensive or wrong and truly apologize if it is against the rules. I must admit i never read them.:)

And even after a portion of them was quoted to you politely, you ignored and self-justified. On top of your shameless advertisement/solicitation you double posted it - in more than one topic area. Not generally welcomed here (posting same in more than one topic area at the same time) and as it is unpaid advertising/solicitation, IMHO now its elevated to the level of spam.

Its your choice if you chose to follow the rules on the honor system, or if they must be enforced upon you.

The edit button appears for you each time you revisit one of your prior posts. I suggest you USE IT.

After having had it pointed out to you that you should contact Brian, the owner of this site, to sponsor a link and pay for THAT advertising, you posted again as though nothing was wrong - that definitely makes your solicitations inappropriate at best.

Like you, Brian is trying to make money while providing this site for inspectors, and Brian makes that money from companies sponsoring topics and sponsorship ads.

Click on the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom and arrange with Brian to sponsor a topic, and go back and edit your posts to refer us to your sponsored topics.
