Where the line gets crossed is when you make it clear you are a business, or a member makes it clear you are a business and you or the member start to solicit customers. We have sponsors that liikely compete with you and if they are paying to be sponsors, and you are siphoning business from them off this site it becomes an issue.
I don't believe any of our sponsors fear competition, but what they may fear is competing on an unlevel playing field in which they pay to participate in POG as sponsors, and someone who pays far less than they do is allowed to compete against them for customers.
As to Michael's concern about stirring the pot, I don't think he went far enough. In addition to a full and complete resume, we expect newcomers to also provide copies of the last three year's tax returns, plus we all expect the normal newcomer's gift. The last new POG member provided all of us with 56" Snap On tool chests. I'm looking forward to your gift.
Welcome aboard.
