As forum owners, we all have rules in place to regulate advertising and ensure that our communities remain relevant and engaging for our members. However, one area that can be a bit murky is whether or not avatars should be included in advertising guidelines.
On one hand, avatars can be seen as a form of self-expression and a way for members to personalize their profiles. However, they can also be used to promote products or services, which could be considered a violation of advertising rules.
So, what do you think? Should avatars be subject to advertising rules? If so, how should this be enforced and monitored? Are there certain types of avatars that should be allowed or prohibited? On the other hand, should avatars be seen as a separate entity from advertising and not subject to any rules or regulations?
Let's discuss and share our thoughts and experiences on avatars and how they fit into our forum communities.
