About signature

I can't find the add signature button in my profile. And I can't find the answer in the forum rule. Before adding a signature, what requirements should I meet? I'm confusing. Thanks!

    Here are the sig. rules. Look in your CP for the edit signature link.

    Your signature was turned off. Look at what you're promoting in it and you'll see why.

      I don't know when it was turned off, I add my website in my signature before. If it was turned off, is there any opportunity to add again? Thanks

    If the website you had in your signature was simply a redirected URL to an affiliate product, or just an affiliate link, that is not allowed.

    As others have stated - read the forum rules, especially the ones regarding your signature.

    Once you have figured out why it was removed and you are 100% sure you will not do it again, you can ask that it be reinstated.

    That's all you can do.

    However -- before you just message help desk or a mod to get it turned back on, seriously consider what I said.

    You want to KNOW what was not allowed so you don't do it again. Otherwise you could just lose your sig permanently next time if you get it back.

    I had a bunch of my posts, some really good ones with positive replies deleted without reason. I think it was because of my signature to my book on amazon. I deleted it and instead put up a link to my blog. Still my posts were deleted.

    It is very frustrating.

    If Warrior Forum is so busy, HIRE someone to help moderate it and give reasons for thread deletions. It's unfair, especially when this is now a PAID forum to delete posts without giving reasons.

      It's simple.

      NO affiliate links! Link to a site or page you control. Use some common sense about the content of said site or page.

      If you can't figure out why it's wrong then you may be lacking the common sense necessary to qualify for the privilege of having a signature.

      Linking to your own book on Amazon is allowed. Using your affiliate link is not.

      Linking to your own blog is allowed. Linking to a company's template site is not. The most recent rash of these has been Empower Network.

      As far as "positive replies" go, a lot of worthless threads collect attaboy posts in order to promote sigs or drop links. If the post isn't worthwhile, or it's just a copy of something you've dumped anywhere that you could, the thread will be deleted. If you just want to dump content for backlinks, there are plenty of article directories out there that will auto-accept.

      (I'm not saying you did this. I'm just using it as an example of something the poster will feel is 'good' and a mod may not.)

      As for giving reasons, it ain't gonna happen. All it does is encourage the "forum lawyers" out there to argue, whine, and generally waste the time of the volunteers who keep this place running.

      Your $10 got you the right to participate in a community, not use it as your private dumping ground or billboard.

        Ive seen a couple of warriors with affiliate links added to their kindle books in their signature.

        If you click on their shortened amzn.to links and it takes you to their kindle book with "&tag=affiliatecode-20" added to the end of the destination url. That would be breaking the warrior forum's rules, right?

          Yes, it would. You can report them if you choose by clicking the little red and white triangle in the left column under their user name.

    I guess using affiliate link in signature's is not allowed, most of them here link back to their blogs or content which people would find useful! for example I've linked back to a blog post which speaks about Essence of affiliate marketing! Just go through the WF rules to check if there was any mistake from your side!
