The following information was what you agreed to when signing up to the forums. I am posting it here just in case anyone has a question about our rules. I have also updated it with some new rules.
Problems with Forum Threads or other Members?
If you have a problem with another member or a forum thread in the Coupons & Deals section, please send a PM or email to Highlander. If Highlander cannot resolve the issue, he will get you in contact with someone that can. Our Moderators consider it very important to keep things running smoothly and spam/****/harassment free.
RULES & REGULATIONS
Please do not post links to other coupon or deal sites.
Please do not post offers that you receive a financial benefit through advertising or ****s.
Do not post offers containing sexually related content or promoting illegal activities.

Do not post offers in the wrong forum. If the offer is a coupon/deal, put it in the coupons & deals forum; If it is a contest, put it in the " Contest" forum, etc.
