I am a member of a couple other message boards, and on one of them I saw a girl with a link in her signature that said "Interested in Pampered Chef? Click here", so being nosy I did and it brought me to her PC personal website. I know that is against the PC web site rules, so my dilemma is should I stick my nose in and tell her it's against the rules, report it to HO or just ignore it? The site is subscription based, and you need to pay a $5 fee to be able to advertise yourself and what you're selling.
 
boy thats a tough question. if it was me, i would send her a message saying that they have tightened up on linking the sites and she needs to talke it off, just so she wont get in trouble. if seh doesnt..well it will just be worse for her. i personally wouldnt report her because i think of PC as family, not tattle tales!!

I think I'll send her a PM on the other site and see what goes from there. If she's super snotty in response I may consider turning her in, if she doesn't respond at all I'll let it go and figure HO will catch up with her sooner or later.
