Chess.com Links What is allowed and What isnt?

Hey Guys and Dolls,

I am just writting to clarify a particular rule within live chess. :)

Recently you would have noticed that almost every link within the chess.com website has been deleted. Whether it be photos, blogs, or forums. :) Well i have finally heard some fantastic news. :D 

We are now allowed to post links to anything within chess.com website as long as it is not tournament, or group related. For example if you have a blog that you would like people to view you are allowed to post the link within the main chat in live. However, if you have a tournament or group you would like people to join you are not allowed to advertise this within the main chat.

The reason for this is because there are a large number of group, and tournament directors who would resort to spamming the main chat within live chess. 

Which would ultimately result in live chess being high distasteful for the members who enjoy to chat within the room. :)

I would just like to add that the admendment of the rule is a fantastic step. :) Thank you. :)

Nice Josh :)

Thanks for letting me know :)

are we allowed to send random people links to a club?

We'd class that as spam and no, it's not allowed.

thanks for letting us know

On a somewhat related topic, does anyone have the link to the Candidates tournament with Ludvig Hammer? I cannot find it, but I really like his dry sense of humor.
