Thanks for your reply.

just read this thread: musicbanter.com/announcements-suggestions-feedback/65209-does-any-one-know.html

I see the problem now. Not only do the moderators of this forum not understand the word "spam," but they also don't know the meaning of the word "promotion." Therefore the following rule is interpreted in a very strange and draconian way that I never would have expected before posting:

Quote:
Band/Music Promotion
Joining MusicBanter to promote your (or someone else's) music is also prohibited. Any accounts being used for promotion will be banned and their posts deleted. Links to music in signatures are allowed, provided the account isn't being used for promotional purposes.
I'll just go find a forum where they A) understand basic English vocabulary and B) actually respect musicians (I know, pretty rare in forums about music!)

P.S. Yes, I am offended at being called a spammer and pissed off, as I imagine a lot of people end up being around here the way this place appears to be run.
