The rule is "no spam."

Probably not spam example:
- A single post (that includes disclaimers about the affiliation) from someone who contributes to the forum is not spam.
Probably spam examples:
- A single post from someone who is brand new to the forum probably is spam.
- Multiple posts over and over by the same author, regardless of how much else they contribute, probably is spam.
It seems like you'd probably fall under that first category.
Hope that helps!
