MegaPari has been posting miscellaneous stuff all over the forums lately and that's getting to be a forum moderation headache so now they have their own little sandbox here and can play to their heart's content. Any new threads created elsewhere by MegaPari will be moved here without notice. Apologies in advance for any inconvenience.

@MegaPari here you go, fill your boots! :D

... CM mods just wanted everything in one place rather than new threads popping up daily (which need approval and create work)
Generally that's quite true, but in this particular case our concern was that item 1.11 of the Forum Rules was being ignored:
1.11 - Please do not exploit this board to promote your own personal agenda: If the moderators (and members) feel that you are harassing members with agenda laden posts ... you might be counseled by the admins of the site (like me) and/or your account may be suspended. If you have a crusade to lead, there are plenty of domain names out there that you can purchase and create your own personal whinge site. Casinomeister's forum is not the place to do this.

MegaPari's original post(s) were snipped for what I thought was blatant self-promotion and an attempt to funnel our readers to their site. Frankly, posting all over our forums with pretty much random topics -- 7 threads in 7 days -- looked suspiciously like more of the same. That is the issue here AFAIC.

Look at it this way: if threads of that nature have appeared over a space of time -- say one thread a month or something like that -- there would have been no issue, just an enthusiastic rep trying to engage with the community. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

But one a day, scattered all over the forums, with no particular focus? No, that's not enthusiasm, that's something else. Hence the need to do what's been done here.
