I now want to see crackdowns across the board on this type of promotion.

Stox and deuces cracked have a partnership with us.

Anyone in the same field as them get no free ads.

As always, I am open to the possibility that my perspective is flawed. Crackdown, resign if that applies, or convince me I'm wrong.

As far as I and uNL are concerned I either nuke or warn against any mention whatsoever of coaching, or paid mentoring sessions. There is the occasional offer of a free sweat or minor hand history review from our more experienced members and I feel that there is nothing wrong with this, but I do not permit commercial enterprise of any kind in uNL and I make no exceptions.

Umm, so how does this affect, if at all, the leggo poker thread(s) in NVG and all the leggo poker avatars?

Thanks,

These really should go. They're nothing but free ads. The 80x80 avatars aren't much smaller than the 120x60 ads on the right side.

They're different than Evan's golf avatar because the Leggo avatars compete with our paying advertisers.

Avatars are harmless. They are not clickable (like the ads), they do not mention the name directly, and there is no way to get to the site as a direct result of viewing an avatar (no url or link mentioned), and further they don't even explain at all what our site is (like ads do). Clearly paid ads are FAR superior, and we are looking in to purchasing some in the very near future. Me and Mat talked privately about removing some of the avatars as to which I agreed.
