Why can't I ask about other torrent sites?

**extremepilot** · 08-12-2006, 10:07 PM

I asked a question about which site has a show I like. Later I noticed it's in the rules not to do so. I don't see how that rule benefits anyone on this planet. Please explain yourselves...

What rule did you break? You cannot request torrents, or torrent links, but can request the name or URL of the homepage of a website that indexes the torrent.

I think what you were asking for (a url to a site) would be okay but my guess is that the person who trashed your thread thought it was a request for to a link...
I'll move it back though as long as it doesn't break any rules.

In the BitTorrent section it says:
"Do not ask for torrentwebsites where you can download certain files."
This makes NO sense what so ever, and when I asked anyway, some guy PMed me saying you're not allowed to.

edit: thanks!!

lol

I think that posting the url to a site is allowed but by reading the rules, yes, it gives the idea that it's not...

If u post a link for a pay product like a torrent site its not allowed. But people don't download anything else than movies or other stuff that sells. I don't know why u ain't braking the rules if u ask for such things, nobody deletes such posts.
Or can i post a link to a torrent site but i can't post a link thats on torrent site lol ?
