- Sponsors shall not offer products or services they cannot deliver. It hurts the reputation of the sponsor as well as that of the forum.
- Do not jump on another sponsor’s thread claiming to have a better price to undercut them (aka price bashing). If there is a problem with pricing, please PM the posting sponsor letting them know of the issue. This will be strictly enforced and there will be zero-tolerance for this type of behavior. Sponsorship privileges of the offending party will be revoked with no refund of fees. NO EXCEPTIONS.
- To avoid any type of potential conflicts with other sponsors, refrain from posting in another sponsor’s thread offering of products or services unless the sponsor who originally created the thread gives permission to do so.
- The threads created by sponsors are for their potential customers and should not be treated as a “prove your product works” type of discussion by competing sponsors. Please discuss “theory” topics in the technical forums.
myMBonline.com reserves the right to update and modify the sponsorship terms at any time for whatever reason at the sole discretion of the myMBonline.com Staff.
