Do links or sigs autmatically get posts deleted... Why does everyone assume that all links are spam, instead of using a case by case basis... Check out my blog!!
Some URL's are not allowed and are automatically removed from posts by the system. That automation does not actually remove the entire post though, it just deletes the URL out of it. If your whole posts are are being removed you should contact the Moderators (by PM please) in the forum you frequent to determine the precise reasons why.
Typically, posts that contain "Check out my blog!!" are considered Spam because the poster is usually just advertising their own website and not actually participating in the discussion of the topic in which they are posting. The NBC Message Board is designed to discuss our favorite NBC shows, not advertise other websites... Constantly posting such advertisements, especially to URL's that provide the poster with financial gain, can result in posting restrictions.

Reason must be used when posting blog links. Posting one link to one blog site in one post in an appropriate thread in the forum a member frequents probably would not be considered spam. Constantly posting such links in posts would be. Especially if such links provide the poster with financial gain.
