As much as it is a logical idea, I have to say that it shouldn't be allowed as it could be seen as obstructing the source of revenue for the site itself. Logically it would be worth more to advertise through a post farmer (using various areas of the forums) than a simple advert on the side of the screen. This is restricting the site's income and as we know already Ajdin is looking for new ways to create income.
I understand that all those signature advertisers will be disappointed however this is for minecraft trades and sales not specifically a source of advert revenue to a particular user. I believe that you should consider how this may cause a great inconvenience to the site's turnover. I am unsure of the pricing for these adverts but the chances are that they are much cheaper than the official website adverts and pinned threads.

Please comment if you agree and disagree and state why. I do not see a reason for this except post farmers just generate income as well as reactions/posts, it is a stupid and ridiculous idea.​

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

Thanks,[DOUBLEPOST=1460895401][/DOUBLEPOST]Like I said, Chump and Senior Pablo, Hannes why dislike and not give an opinion, do you do it yourself, therefore using it to make money in a devilish and crude way?
Because I think it's a good way for people to make some extra cash.

Ah, I do not. The reason I said disagree is because you're voting in favor of Bebos making more moola.

That's business I am afraid, its the power of the bosses, I personally as a Owner of a company would want to keep the community happy yes, which this website is doing. But the way you are making money is fraudulent in effect. Ajdin has this site in order to allow players to make money using minecraft. Not for people to use his site as a source of their own revenue, to me that is betrayal and if you cared so much about him not having more money, don't buy the ranks =)

Ye, but why are you allowed to sell accounts such as Snapchat, Instagram etc if this is a minecraft forum then?

That is nothing to do with what I am saying, but in answer to your question, BeBosny and the other staff are looking at what the users want which has changed the concept of the website. Selling web-design, graphics may not apply to minecraft; it's just the name of the site is MC-market (meaning minecraft-market).

Just leave the signature advertisers be. They're not hurting anyone, not all advertisements found in signatures are even profitable at times. This is borderline EULA.

Just... no. Horrible idea, and yet you have a advert in your own signature (to signup for a newsletter).
I don't think he is referring to that type of adverts. He means making money out of advertising peoples server etc.
