Implemented Additional to rules

Just a bit of a comment from me are we able to put something in the rules about actively posting for advice or help to take out a competitor and or family business is not OK?

I get we all might have a grudge but that was one of the things that really pissed me off in the other place. Then had mods tell me it was blackhat and that's all ok which of course sent me on the calling everyone a c*nt and then for some bizarre reason later people seem to thing I had mental issues lol

Just a thought I'm all for sniping opportunities and that but trying to actively derail a business and seeking help to do so and ruin someone's life doesn't sit well with me.

Having competition or a grudge is supposed to make you better and thrive. Aiming to destroy somone via some colour cap method is a bit of a taboo for me.

What happens to the old days of just turning up at so ones door with a sledge hammer.

If that's OK at least I know in advance lolol

I agree.

If you are the type of person who destroys a competitor using "black hat" tactics then you absolutely are a cuntrag of the highest order.

Neg SEO = "my product/service is SHITE therefore I'll try destroy someone else's business".

I thought I did see something about that if I recall correctly it was under Terms and Rules.

Yeah, it's in the No-Tell Registry, which is for downloadables shared on Office Outlaw. It makes sense to add it in as an official rule as well.

This was a good suggestion, @t2van. I've added it as rule 13 for now, but we need to go through and re-organise and flesh out the rules here more at some point soon.

Rule 13: Negative SEO/ORM Is Prohibited
We're here to build, not to harm other people's businesses or your competitors.
