Well I certainly do respect the positions of the folks that have a 0% tolerance for any advertising here as prescribed in the TOS, I've never been a letter of the law kind of guy. As long as the topics aren't filled with hyperbole like the three kings thread
"Ampeg SVX and AmpliTube Fender up to 60% off!" is just the facts and in my view relevant to the software forum. There is a bit of hyperbole in the first post, I'm thinking copy and paste?
For all I know that is how CW is keeping the lights on here and if they have resorted to outside advertising, at least its software related to music production and not those blasted video converter spammers.
