Ongoing Issues with Soliciting by non Design members
As someone who pays for Design membership here at SBF I am saddened when I see a few members who are not paying for this privilege putting links to products with their layout uploads.

*Is there a way the rules can be more visible so that members adhere to them and they are clear to all.

I can see how some people may be unsure of what the rules are and maybe this could be highlighted/refreshed by SBF in the forum.

Also if individuals continue to flaunt the rules repeatedly which I know for a fact is happening by a few, then more action taken.

I do believe in respect and fairness and am not one to speak out, but I do feel this issue needs highlighting again.

Sadly it makes me question what I am paying for.

I don't know if SBF staff are able (because of time) to view each and every scrap that is posted every day, but I do know on other threads in the forums Rae Ann has asked us to help by reporting scraps that are violating this particular rule. I didn't know about this rule until it came up in the forums somewhat recently. I think a lot of the time even though an email is sent to the offending member, they delete it before reading it, so maybe an SBF staff member can send a personal message to the homepage because I think everyone checks their messages.

Hi yes the rule is unless a Designer membership is paid for people may put kit names and designer names only but not links. I have seen at least four today by non Design members. Not the clickable type but copy paste type. Hopefully by notifying support they can do something about it.

several people post links but they are not clickable. its possible some of these people dont know any better as rules are not real clear and easily seen. i sometimes list a store but no links that can be c/p.

Rae Ann says:
Please continue to report members and pages that are violating the site rules for soliciting. We will notify the members of the rules. Most members will stop after receiving notification that they are violating the site rules. Some times it takes multiple notifications to get a member to follow the site rules.

Rae Ann says:
Support has also sent multiple messages to this member. She is from Germany. So, she may not understand yet. We will continue to monitor and please continue to report any soliciting on the site by members who are not designer members.

Thanks.

Lucky I have learned some German and I just spoke to the lady on Facebook. She is very sorry that she had cost some confusing, she thought SBF is a free gallery where you can post anyhow without solliciting rules. She has removed all the links now. So please be kind to her, it was just a misunderstanding from her side
