      Alexa, thanks. That was my understanding too, but... My sig had two links to my WSO and JV offers. No other links. They disappeared w/o explanation.

      I don't want to put them back w/o clarification.

        It's possible a mod thought the JV offers were actually affiliate offers. When you say JV offers you mean you're helping to promote someone else's products? But not as an affiliate? You're cross promoting for each other? Or it's a product you both created together? That might be where the confusion is, sometimes it can be a fine line as to what's acceptable.

        Excellent. Someone is thinking. Thank you.

        Did you mention the WSO or JV threads in a post? That can look like promotion. Other than that, it might just be the wording looked like an affiliate ad or something.

          Thanks Paul. I did mention the WSO in some answers, but was told its against the rules and have stopped doing so.

          And the credit for thinking belongs to Alexa.

    Look in the sticky threads right at the top of the main discussion forum. Look at the one about Forum rules, I think they talk about signatures there.

      To the OP. Please don't PM members directly and start accusing them of
      being in sig file violation.

      Nobody here can tell you why your signature was deleted except for the
      people who run this forum. If you want an answer, submit a ticket to the
      help desk.

        You're right, and I apologize for the knee jerk reaction. Wrong of me.

    What size was the text? I've noticed a lot of Text This Size lately. It breaks the rules. Most think Normal means not larger than normal. It also means not smaller than normal.
