Default Re: chaostracize\'s loc: - out of my jurisdiction

Mat,

That's not what I got at all. I think that "Coaching" and "Coaching see profile" should be treated the same, just like Cit and Jared. I think coaching references should be removed, personally. Unlike blogging which is sometimes non-commercial, coaching is a blatantly commercial endeavor, and if someone wants to use 2+2 to advertise for their coaching business, then they can take out a classified. Especially with the talk of specifically coaching classifieds, I say we nix it now in advance of that. In response to Leader's argument about doing allowing it out of the niceness of our hearts to valuable posters, well, we didn't let Sublime spam his affiliate business in his loc, did we? He's a valuable poster, too. Coaching might not be as lucrative as rakeback, but I still don't think it should get free advertising in the loc field if we're not allowing rakeback there.

If I was to draft some rules, I'd have them look like this:

1. No urls.
2. No mentions of rakeback.
3. No "PM me" or "See profile"
4. No mentions of coaching.
5. Allow "Blogging." Many blogs are free, and as long as 2+2 doesn't have blogging capabilities, I don't want to have to enforce all of these.
