As with all the different forums on Burnley Web, Nightlife and Events was intended for members to tell others about what was going on in the Burnley/Pendle area and discuss the merits of places they had visited and events they had attended. You mentioned encouraging mates to advertise on here and that could have meant places outside the area. If anyone profits from an event they advertise on this forum, they are a business and need the permission of Admin as I stated before. I would suggest you contact Neal and clear this matter up rather than take issue on the open forum.
