Just need to understand the standard practice.

Do we allow adverts in the General Discussion or in any other part of our Forum?

Like this one in the General Discussions section: For sale Brand New HTC SHIFT FOR $300

Please clarify the policy.

If it's the norm I will ask some of my companies to also practice this.

W' alaikum es salaam, ya akhi

Some start as Switch Ads. These offer some innocent sounding item - for F R E E! And, entice you to a commercial website. Our General Discussions section is, at times, flooded by these F R E E  O F F E R S.

But this For sale Brand New HTC SHIFT FOR $300 is the ultimate.

Thanks.

Assalamu Alaikum,

Jazak Allah Khair, brother, for your input.  It seems to me that the  ad mentioned by you has been deleted by the moderator group. If I am wrong, please provide the link, and it will be deleted, insha Allah.

Peace
