Recently I discovered this little browser-game, which mainly consists of thinking up a name for your town and then get people to visit the page of said town in order to make it grow. Of course I created my own settlement:

Are there any other players around on the NationStates-forum?

I do like doom, but I guess you're not talking about the music style...

Wasn't somebody just recently banned for posting a MyMiniCity link?

Yes, but he tricked people into clicking on a link to his MyMiniCity without being honest about it. I looked up the rules before I created this thread, because I wanted to make sure that I wasn't doing something wrong. Did I miss something?

Yes, you did.
General classes of forbidden links include porn or other sexual imagery, warez (see below), sites promoting other illegal activities, referral links (see below), or sites that have links to such sites as a principal component. (my emphasis)
and, later, Referral Links: Posting links to "personal accounts" on websites (where you get some benefit from having multiple people click the link) is a warnable offense. This refers to Cyber-war, Outwar, plus all other variants, and even such sites as kevan.org (that dumbass zombie brain thing). They are not permitted in threads, titles, signatures, World Factbook entries, National Mottos, or anywhere else.
Oops.
The ban that Gun Manufacturers referred to is here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=13339595&postcount=3). As you can see, it was imposed because the poster had had the situation explained to him, but just wouldn't get the message.
One hopes you do.
(To clarify: as you did your best to comply, this is not a bell, book and candle, official-type, warning, just a friendly nudge.)
