Consider this a warning: vendors aren't allowed to spam, advertise, solicit, etc. We expect our vendors' work to speak for itself and do not tolerate advertisement without checking in with a moderator or the host first.

That's partly why this is such a great place- we keep our vendors in check :)

Make sure you read the vendor rules thread that was posted above. We do welcome vendors and value your opinions- but, no direct advertising or solicitation...

Jean-Marcus,

This isn't YOUR forum, this is a forum for our members who are looking for information to help plan their wedding. When you say "just so you know, I still have your week open" you're putting the bride or groom in a tough position where they feel like they have to try to explain themselves to you. THEY DON'T!

As it states in the vendor rules:

Quote:
4. Please do not actively or aggressively solicit our members (PM-ing them or emailing them directly). If they would like information from you, they will contact you.
If you want to discuss this further, please send me or another moderator a PM.

you don't need to understand the rules to follow them but let me explain one more time. we have over 20 photographers registered on this forum...could you imagine if every time a new member says hi, i am getting married on xxx date and all the photogs responded to her that they were open, or she should use them how annoying that would be.

again, you do not have to agree to the rules, just follow them or NOT be a part of this forum.

im making an appology to all members and moderators. like ive said from the begining i am new to this forum thing and even though i read the rules i had no idea that the posts i was making was viewed as spaming. i got a little upset with this website over the lasat week because everyone on here was messaging me over and over and hating on me and i guess im clear now to why. i am going to leave even the slightest incling of me soliciting brides out just to be on the safe side. believe me. i have been trying to learn the ropes and i think i got it down.

anyways. happy new years and i intend to be a positive force in this forum
