We have decided that from now on no redirect links such as tinyurl will be allowed on the board.
This means they can`t be used in posts, and/or, in signatures. There should be no need to use this type of link. Members may use the real URL itself in a post, or signature, or of course hyperlinks which look much neater.
Referral links can still only be used in signatures, or of course in posts in the Advertising Folder.
This rule is now in the `Announcements.`

#12) We do NOT permit the use of redirect URLs, such as tinyurl, or any other, in either posts, or in signatures. Links must be directed to the real site.

If we see any post from now on using such a link, the link, or post, will be removed, and the member warned, or possibly banned.
The same applies to any new signatures, though we will allow a reasonable period of time for members with existing signatures to change them so as to conform to the new rule.
