tl;dr - someone brought up "forum that shant be named" (vpsb), then a string of amusing "This post soon to be deleted" messages. The 'blatant advertising' reference was mkpossen stating that he would follow WHT's example, and not remove links to VPSB unless they were 'blatant advertising'.
Ahhh, okay. I understand now. That's hilarious.
Hahaha.
That's hilarious.
"blatant advertising".
http://lowendtalk.com/discussion/19211/small-vps-with-cpanel-whm-and-whmcs <-- second thread from the top and look at the blatant advertising!
I love how that despite the fact Lowendtalk is much larger and more active then vpsBoard they feel threatened by its presence enough to worry over links to here. I think it does more good than anything, people are naturally curious. "
The board that can't be named. Sounds exclusive. I want in." Haha. Granted, they've got years on vpsB but we're on the up and up no doubt.
EDIT: Furthermore, there are plenty of links on LET to other vps websites, that aren't selling VPSes. That rule was simply put in place for vpsBoard. No one winked when there was an entire thread created about the 96mbForum, where the owner(s) were asking for suggestions. No one gets mad if someone links to their blog. But link to vpsBoard? Shame on you. How
dare you.
