Help me to understand how this isn't advertising services?

thats ok, theres a VJ member who has his website on his profile and when you click it its another immigration website. that to me is advertisment as well.

You are right and I have removed any advertising. It is a TOS violation so thanks for pointing it out and letting me know .

Right on

Is the immigration site in question making that member some money?

Folks here have links to other immigration sites - including immigrate2US.net, britishexpats, etc - all over the place. There's only one other immigration site I know of that isn't allowed to be linked to here (still haven't figured out WHY though).

Vj doesn't own the market on immigration information.

The link had an advertiser ID hence referral for money. The issue is a slippery slope and often hard to balance between casual links and referrals for money or other reasons. In any case I am closing this thread as the OP's issue is resolved. In the future just PM me and I will resolve these issues faster as I see PM's quicker.
