Two Wheeled Texans Advertising/Spam Policy
The Intent of TWT's Advertising/Spam policy
The Two Wheeled Texans website is intended as a place for private individuals to come together to form friendships and share information with the rest of the riding community. We recognize that there are individuals who may work for, or own, a business that can offer valuable services or products to our members. We welcome these people as members. However, their primary purpose for posting in the forums should be to participate in the riding community as a fellow enthusiast and NOT just to troll for customers and/or to promote their business.
Things that are NOT allowed
- Direct unsolicited contact of other users via the PM utility or by email through TWT for commercial purposes is strictly prohibited and is grounds for immediate account deletion.
- Starting a new thread to discuss your business in any forum other than the TWT Vendor Forum or in your own TWT Sponsor subforum.
- You may NOT use your avatar as an advertising banner, unless you are also a paid TWT Advertiser
- Excessive posts about your business in other people's threads.
Things that are allowed
- Users may use their company name as a username.
- Users may post links to their businesses in their signatures with contact information (address, phone number, and email), standard font size only. It can be in a color, but only ONE color for ALL of it.
- Users may discuss their business in threads ONLY if it is relevant to the topic.
- TWT Sponsors/Advertisers may submit events for placement on the TWT Calendar (subject to TWT approval).
Enforcement
Content should be motorcycle related: shops, gear, services, etc,... The TWT staff will have the final say on what constitutes spam. Violations may result in warnings and/or account removal if warranted.
A word about giving back to TWT
The Two Wheeled Texans forum is privately owned and is not a part of some larger company that covers our bills. Forums like TWT take a great deal of time and effort to manage. We do not charge for membership and as stated below, we allow users to share their business interests with our membership at no cost. We survive on donations from users and fees from our limited advertising banners and sponsors.
If you post about your business here, please give some consideration to donating to the site to help support our efforts.
