PLEASE do NOT manually insert signatures!  If you want to link there is a feature in your profile. Signature links are enabled after 50 posts!

We do not mind our members using profile / signature links but we ask that you use the official signature feature in your profile.  

This is an effort to help keep our site of high quality.

We appreciate your support!

ZERO TOLERANCE

signatures are DOFOLLOW, there are no posting requirements for a forum signature.

Signatures are going to be updated where you need 50 posts sometime in the near future.  Rules have also been updated.  READ THEM folks!

Anyone with a signature in place and less than 50 posts will be ok as long as you don't change it after the change goes in effect!

Wow, you cannot even spell yourself, so the pot calling kettle black here??? 

Any forum community is going to get spammers and you can rest assured that they will be dealt with over time.  I plan on going through the forum with a fine tooth comb and blocking the pure spammers WHEN I HAVE TIME.  If you cannot deal with a bit of spam in the mean time, then by all means you are welcome to move onto where ever it is you want to go.

Most people wanting to help build a community are very understanding and we will permanently block the spammers as our community grows.

Also we do have a report feature for any blatant disrespect of the rules.  Normally reports are taken care of ASAP.

We are trying to be laid back here and do not want an environment like some forums where mods run around with a big old ban stick.

I am glad that you are making this a real forum about jewelry.  I joined another one, and it was all spamming about things completely unrelated to jewelry.  Thanks for keeping this one on topic!

I've just posted a Mother's Day Sale post and added a link to the website.  Please don't ban me from this website as I posted it in the wrong section.

Thank you very much
