actually JZ your wrong we are allowed to toss personal items for sale in our sigs thatis one of the few things dave allowed when he did the change over from forum ad's i bet dave could clarify that one better for us though <br>
it was actually sorta 'look the other way for premium members'

seriously, i like that idea, and the similar policy is being adopted for JBNW on advertising. Besides, nothing is ever free. What's some extra money for being able to advertise a buisness and selling of your products and getting it to the SOURCE for many J-body enthusiasts? <br>

ALSO...it's been brought to my attention that Dave has, in the past, allowed personal for sale posts in the regional forums. He also intends to continue to do so. This will be good for people selling body kits, wheels, etc, that would be tough to ship and that sorta thing....much easier to have someone local find out about it and come pick it up. 
My apologies to any of you that had personal ads there that I deleted...I just didn't know about that exception. Feel free to re-post your items there, or in the classifieds.
Funny how 5 months ago I continuously had my wheels deleted. Only makes sense to allow that, there is no reason not to....... Thanks!

LMAO... Nice! Technically, that could be business too.
I just want to clear the air up on one thing........i have in my sig. a link to the group buy i found that a company (hidynamics.com) was willing to do for us.
At one point there was about 3 posts a day asking about HIDs.....so i took it upon myself to get us a bussiness that would cut jbody a good deal....and save fellow Gm tuners some money.
Now i just got a forum warning stating about solicating for a bussines....i just want to clearify that i have no relation to this bussiness what so ever.....So its not like i,m gaining anything from this.
and i even e-mailed dave and he said i could post this in the exterior forum about this group buy but since this isn't my company i can't make a group buy up for it.
so i would like to be able to do one or the other.
Be able to post in the forums
or
Set up a group buy for the HIDs
I mean personally i think its kinda unfair to put all these restrications on something that could save the entire community money!
I mean i,m not trying to break the system.....I just think that this is something that is beneifical and not hurting or damaging to the site in any way.
SO if what your saying is you would rather pay full price for something then get a good deal on it.....i will Glady take it out of my sig. and never speak of it again.
But i wish you would please clearify this for me........oh and btw, I don't mean to say any of this in an angry tone or anything....I know typing never really show emotions..lol
thanks,
Alex

Want HIDs? Check out the great deal Jbody.org has on HID kits www.hidynamic.com/groupbuy
I get what your saying, but here's what I think Dave's thinking is behind the premium only stuff:
Non premium members are using this board for free. They put links for businesses in thier sigs, they get the business from this site, for free.
Now how is that fair to Dave, who is stuck with huge server bills and bandwidth costs? They are making money, but Dave is supporting them for free?
At least with premium members, they pay thier monthly or yearly dues, so Dave does make money from them to help pay for the costs of this site. A lot of people forget that to run a site like this takes a LOT of money and hard work, so why should Dave get the shaft when other businesses are getting extra cash?
Just pay the $3.00 per month, it won't kill you, and you can keep the link in your sig.

I was thinking the same thing.

, we thank you for your support of The J-Body Organization. If you have a business, you have permission to use the JBO Forums as a means of limited advertising, including product announcements, GP Surveys ("What would you like to see in a Group Purchase?"), placing company graphics or links in your sig, etc. More options will become available to you once Business Memberships become available and that information will be online soon. If you have parts for sale personally, we ask that you list them in the JBO classifieds and not in forum posts and that you don't use "sig space" to advertise personal sales.
we welcome your participation in JBO but we ask that if you do have a business that you register as a Premium Member before you use the site as an advertising medium. Dave puts a considerable amount of time and money into the development and upkeep of the site. It stands to reason that those who would gain by advertising on the site should contribute to it's well-being. Your company graphics or links to your company's website should not be included in your signature. Posts that are obvious advertisements or solicitations for business by non-premium members will be deleted. As with Premium members, please do not use the forums or "sig space" to advertise personal items for sale; please list those items in the classifieds.
