[QUOTE=captain1202;388285]While the Admin certainly has the right to edit offensive posts, I frankly don't see the problem with a business being mentioned inside posts. After all this is supposed to be a helpful site for newcomers primarily. QUOTE]
The Admin stated earlier that businesses being mentioned by a third party was allowed. I would presume that if the business was touted repeatedly by the same person it might be stopped, and probably should be. The original problem that precipitated this thread was the owner of a business giving advice and promoting his business while presumably not being willing to pay for advertising, causing him to be banned. I agree with that policy for what it's worth.
