It would still have the same effect, and this way means less hassle.

Why make a rule when common sense will do.

We can clearly see who posts on a regular basis and who contributes and who doesn't.

I just mean that if regular members are permitted and the promotions forum is no more won't it just create a situation in which the general board becomes a toilet bowl for advertising threads which nobody gives a **** about?

Not really, not everyone has music projects and most of them will be moved into their respective genres.

Your probably right, when you take away the 1 post members there's probably not gonig to be a large magnetude of advertising to be done anyway. :/

Meh...

Oh, I hope I didn't break this rule in any way in my indroduction thread! I posted about my band and the online radio I listen to a lot. Is that all right?

As long as you're gonna stick around, it's fine by us. Our main problem is with people registering just to advertise then taking off without contributing to the forum.

There's a difference between a member who joins MB to promote a band without contributing to the forums and a member who joins MB who contributes to the forums and happens to be in a band.

It's obvious which category you fall under.
