Yes. That thread required a lot of maintenance due to people who didn't follow the rules either ignorantly or deliberately, including some really blatant abuse. It's one thing to abuse the airlines but another to abuse your fellow FT members.

ftnoob hopes to set up a quasi-conga arrangement to provide a similar capability for our members.

Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully we can bring it back soon!

There's one and only one referral thread on FT, in the credit card forum. Use it.

Credit card referral offers (post only in this thread, read Wikipost first)

Please clarify -

I have gotten emails to me with links for the referral bonus. I assume those links are fine?

And I will get the bonus. My friend is looking to start up a business soon and I was going to send it to him.

FT rules apply to FT posts and private messages. Of course your links will work if you email them to a friend you know personally. Just don't try gathering friends here, other than on that one thread.
