need help with forum rules

Solution
Did this before on Toms, OCN and Gametrailers. The only ones who had a problem with it was gametrailers - no surprise there.

I'm content to allow it. But only once, and only you, and only during a very brief window.

The reason I qualify this is to avoid commercial AV spammers from posting for the sole purpose of giving away trial keys to their software. To big software, Tom's is a goldmine of activity. Even giving away your product for free to our very large network of tech experts could result in a major boost in sales, because everyone here on Tom's is an influencer - so we have to be very careful about what we allow to prevent abuse.

Thank you very much. Other than tom's, I couldn't think of any website I could post it where the giveaway would actually be taken seriously. As this will be the only thing I giveaway on this forum, I will have to figure out another legitimate outlet for giveaways in the future.
