    Well I have been seeing this enough, There has been alot of sales of 2rd part websites, example. Sig bros..

    If you look right now, people are selling their premium members for their own site.. In no such way is this assisting GR, It's a petty excuse for advertising, they can give out there link, like heres an example of a post.

    "I am seeling a premium account for my site (http://mysite.com) I will start this at 1 credit in icrements of 10."

    I really strongly support that you should make a rule about this. Like I said, it's a 'petty excuse for advertising'

    And the rules say, if you give out a link its advertising. Right.

    Any ways, Llamamam, Dave Mods and all other support staff, hope you take this into consideration.

    Im not supporting you, becuz its a way to get credz and if you're the owner of the site you can do that and you'll prolly already have a link in your sig to the site :S.

    Both good arguments...maybe have a tax? ^_^ So if they want to do that they have to pay to dave/llama like 30% of their profits...that way they can advertise but at a slight price

    I think its an indirect form of advertisement and I have to agree, its not right. You shouldnt be selling premium membership on your forums, at this forum. Its an attempt to draw members away from this site.
