No Torrent Links Allowed.

[Xero Grid]

Okay, this may sound strange, but the forum aparently doesn't allow the word "torrent" if it is a part of a link anymore. This is for obvious reasons, nobody wants to get in trouble.

The thing is, I tried to post a link to the TorrentStorm site, one of the many BT clients, and the link within the tags kept getting renamed to "No Torrent Links Please" or something like that.

This hasn't happened before. Has anyone else gotten this problem? Has someone recently posted a direct link to a torrent document?

Posts that contain direct download links to copyrighted software, private ftp sites, serial numbers, warez sites

I count torrent sites as warez sites

and yes its a new protection

No, it wasn't a direct link. It was just the site. "torrentstorm.com"

There woudn't be a work-around for it, right? Ya know, for non-direct links. Curious.

yeah its like you cant use an Internet explorer link, or any other browser, also, ths may be flmaed at but i think the klite quicklinks are as much torrent-like as, well any torrent, and so i guess junkyardkings list is going to be removed also eh?

[Xero Grid]

I hope not. junkyardkings' list is more than decent.

Good point.

If you consider them warez sites you better remove that list too IKE...

Perhaps the mods can agree on a clear rule over that.
In the meantime please change the wordfilter from non-exact to exact.

im not saying remove the list, use it a lot, isnt this hipocracy? i dont quite know the exact defenition just too lazy to look up

The rule might blow, but you have to follow it.

[Edit]
Pretty useless filter if it just replaces "[no torrent links please]" with that, right?

Useless? It buggers up the links man
