Therefore from now on:
-Paid reviews (or reviews for items received free of charge and/or specifically mentioning who supplied it)- these paid reviews should be in the vendors sub-forum, and if that happens to be "Vendor General" then within their established thread

I said they same thing last week Doggie and was corrected by FM that ... "If links to the supplying vendor are part of the review AVF will require the review be posted in the vendors thread/forum." and a further amendment to the rules last week was
"Also it has been noticed that further forms of Pseudo Advertising in the form of using images plastered with the suppliers name are being used in reviews ... we suggest that reviewers use their own images or ones taken from manufacturers website ( with permission if required ) ... Images with the suppliers company logo will be removed if reported from this date ... Please dont take the easy way out reviewers .. you are getting a free mod, work for it rather than the person supplying you "
edit to addhttps://ukvapers.org/attachment.php?thumbnail=60846 in this case there is a link showing to an image that Tim from the UK, who receives goods from China to review on an Aussie forum probably needs to remove

so the rules contradict themselves?

I'm curious what happens with all these free items for review? Do they get returned or Tim ends up with a pile of gear?

rule 1 needs editing then
it says if you got it free for review, it goes in supplier thread
rules are easier to follow if you don't need a phd to understand the way they are written

It's of no use to the supplier once it's been opened and used, so of course it does not get sent back. That's why most of the big reviewers do giveaways on their youtube channels. They just have too much stuff that they will never use, which has compounded the problem because now the suppliers send them multiples of things that they want them to give away - it's good promotion. (LOLs).
