    You have had posts and/or private messages in the past that were reported for recruiting efforts. In other words, giving your truck number to others so that you could receive referral bonuses. That is considered much the same as advertising, and that leads to a loss of certain privileges.

    We want all drivers who are interested in a company to receive information about that company that is completely unbiased. We don't want members to have a financial incentive to help other drivers find jobs.

    Oh. I didn't realize. To think I didn't even want to reveal the company name.
    Any way I can get those privilege back?

    You're right, I could try those things, but I won't. Maybe it's better all around if I don't. That way I don't accidentally break another rule.
    It was a simple question.
    I can live without it.
    Too bad there isn't a rule vs bullying and belittling.

    Careful. They might pull out the privately owned forum card.

    Hit the report button if someone is out of line. The mods can't be everywhere.

    How the hell is this a problem? The man pays the bills he has a right to make the rules. We have a tremendous amount of leeway in here, you just have to learn what is acceptable. Attack the post and not the poster, it's really not that hard to figure out. If the fact you can't be an insulting ####### is a problem, go hang out in Politics, you'll find plenty of kindred spirits in there.
     
    Mastertech, DenaliDad and Big Don Thank this.

    There is. Just that some things to you may be considered offensive, to others it is not really a offence. So that of which gets reported may just need a grain of salt.
