I've never read the advertising rules or advertised, but through observation of the board know that it's a rule that an auction house can't post about their auctions on the front page if they don't have a banner. Auction houses have tried before and were advised to buy a banner. Once they have a banner they can post news and updates about their auctions.
As Leon once stated, the idea is it's unfair to the people who buy banners if auction houses can simply advertise for free by starting threads.
So I can testify that isn't a new rule.
