Actually, no they couldn't; the rule is 30/30, as in, thirty days, and thirty posts. The rules are set up so that you have to contribute to the forum before you can use it as a platform for promotion. You couldn't just let an account sit for a month and then let rip with the links, you'd need to have said something of substance before you're okay.
Now me, I've been here a few years, I've posted many thousands of times, and I've promoted my own work plenty. It's not an issue at all, so long as the promotion is coupled with a desire to be a member of the community itself. If the intent is to just use the board as a marketing platform, then not only will we show you the door, you should be shown the door: this is a discussion forum, after all.
