This is a warning to all members. One of our now ex-members send a PM to at least one of our members promising to pay her $5.00 to add a link to the end of her posts. DO NOT TRUST THESE TYPES OF PROMISES. I you post links that are not yours, you place yourself in a dangerous position, not the least of which is to get banned yourself.

If you receive such an offer, please let me know and DO NOT take to person up on his/her offer.

I'm sorry, I deleted it after I read it but I remember it was signed by someone named Tim. Hope that helps.
