I posted an affiliate linked event.

I apologize. Didn't RTFD. Which I should have. But not surprised since I do in fact have ADHD and am impulsive.

I agree this was a bad call, I should not have posted this on my admin account. I didn't know I had GOD powers. Eeek.

I thought it was more informative than spam.

Again, I am really sorry.

I will get better at RTFD'ing.

Affiliate link mistake or not I am glad you posted that link and I want you to know that I found it valuable and at least two of my ND friends did as well (including one that just recently started a business) and are now going to attend.

I know it was against the rules but I just wanted you to know that at least someone was glad you posted it and you made a positive impact in at least one person’s life.

Don’t get me wrong, I understand why the rule exists but I think I commented on the original post too and I didn't even take it as you trying to advertise, you even said it was an affiliate link. I thought it seemed like you were just excited, and the event is free after all (cost isn’t the point I know, I think that’s why I didn’t think it was advertising).
