Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 01:24, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
Your recent edits
[edit]Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 08:37, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
Wow, amazing. My attorneys have really gotten into this lack of freedom of speech issue with this site. Get ready for war. Tonicfan (talk) 08:41, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is not a forum for free speech, it is a private website building an encyclopedia. You are spamming the encyclopedia with inappropriate external links. You have been blocked for using legal threats in an attempt to intimidate editors into allowing the links against policy. See below. Acroterion (talk) 11:34, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
- Further: see WP:EL for policy on external links. Just because the link you're promoting leads to free game play doesn't mean it's not advertising or promotion. You do not have a right via the First Amendment to be provided with free advertising on other people's websites. Persistent spamming may result in the URL being blacklisted from Wikimedia sites.

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
