I'm sure this has been posted somewhere on the forums before, but I can't find it!

The applications for the 2011 Virgin London Marathon are beiing accepted from today.

I've just put what is my second application (I was rejected on my first one in 2009 :() so I have my fiingers crossed for this one.

Anyway, enough of my chat, here's the link:

Good luck to all those that enter. :T

    Are you allowed to have that link in your signature where you are fishing for donations?

    When dealing with the CSA its important to note that it is commonly accepted as unfit for purpose, and by default this also means the staff are unfit for purpose.

    I've not been questioned over it and it's been there over a week now.

    Incidentally, the link is for the Action Against Hunger charity, not the London Marathon next year. I also have a seperate post requesting donations.

    I'm happy to remove it if it offends anyone.

    You could be right you possibly are allowed to post links in the signatures..........

    Ive just double checked the forum rules:
    The only links permitted in signatures are those of the MSE Team, the Forum Team, Board Guides and links to charity (i.e., they are on the Charities Commission Register of Charities). Members who have specifically been given permission to have a link in their signature are added to the Members allowed signature links list.

    Charity donation request post now deleted.

    Apologies for the inconvenience.
