All New Members Please Read!

Just a quick heads up:

We have been hit by a giant wave of spamming as of late, and the Mod Staff and myself have been leaning more to the side of caution with new members. Here are a few helpful hints:

1.) Check out the Code of Conduct so you know what our rules are. They are posted here:

2.) Avatars. While we encourage custom avatars, make sure they are site-friendly and appropriate for all ages.

3.) Links in your signatures. If you belong to other boards and want to link to there, that’s fine. Also, if you have a Joe related business that’s okay too. However, if you are just linking to an outside business for a traffic grab, that will be treated as spamming.

4.) Make one of your first posts in the "Sound Off Soldiers" section so you can introduce yourself, and tell us what other boards you belong to and so on.

Thanks for joining JBL!

SO would the link in my signature to Glyos.com; a link to the Onell Design/ Glyos blog, (that also contains a link to the owner/ designer's toy line store) wrong ?

I'm OK with it Ghost.

No your good established members that have proven that they aren't just here as a traffic grab are okay. It's newly registered that we are concerned about just to grab traffic.
