Hello, I own a conveyor refurbishing company that also deals in mining belt and structure. I just wanted to pass along some information to the other business owners out there. XXXXXX Advertisement is ridiculous and outrageous! I advertise with them and pay through the nose with no leads whatsoever...Long story short, I found a site online that did the same thing, they offered me half off what I was paying the coal miners exchange and gave me a bigger ad too! Money is tight lately, and I wanted to let the coal businesses know that there is a site called XXXXX that will guarantee you leads for less money than the coal miners exchange! Check it out! eliteminingadvertising.com

Check it out! eliteminingadvertising.com I'll allow this minus the company name, the link can stay. But Proboards, the host of this site takes a firm view, we don't allow commercial advertising, Proboards provides free hosting paid for by advertisers paying them for advertising space. Personal ads to sell the odd mining lamp, or used mining books we allow as it's not considered commercial.
I had to stop Chinese registrations as they blatantly spam the site with commercial advertising.

Send me one of those please Daz, I love single malt!! Chinese post dozens of ads on different boards, I first ban them then remove all their ads one by one. I logged in one morning and caught a Chinese spammer posting ads for a large Chinese crusher manufacturer. After half a dozen of those I made registration via Admin only. We have to be very careful on what ads are posted by members, Proboards don't allow ads on these free hosted sites period. I will take a risk and allow personal property ads like if someone has a book or two they don't need anymore to advertise it, or the odd oil lamp, or if they have a Meco-Moore Slicer Loader they want to get rid of because the missus keeps complaining it's taking too much room up in the parlour, then that's OK. Proboards might disagree though, but they won't close the site down, just send me a warning. If I allow blatant commercial advertising, Proboards staff could well end up pulling the site, and I don't want to see that take place. I try to use discretion on each post with an ad, but give those little orientals a mm, and they will take a Km... Now today, a German advertised his companies products, that's a NO NO. They other gentleman wasn't so blatant, but I did remove the companies names and allowed the link to stay, probably against my better judgement.

It isn't really Glenfiddich by the way, it's a cheapo "Single grain" ALDI's own label "Scotch Whisky" priced at less than £10 a bottle, a brilliantly valued, genuine Scotch, matured over three years, no doubt in the equivalent of A11 forty five gallon oil drums on the banks of the Firth of Forth, but, nonetheless a superb way of spending your pension ............ in no way should this post be considered an advertisement for or on behalf of Aldisupermarkets.com, but should there be consideration given by ALDI to any sort of financial appreciation of my 'support', then my Paypal account number is as follows; PP 711491. I trust this post may well suffer the deft blows of selective censorship, but after six or seven shots of the subjective substance it matters only little ..... I just happy not to be trying to eke a living out of selling brake pads or conveyor belting systems.

"Sorting out Buttocks" was more of a hobby than working for a living
