Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask...but after being 'trampled on' needlessly last night I want to make sure that I don't go breaking any of the rules. I'd rather not be spoken to like that again...
So..I was going to post a thread that would contain a link...and the link would be pretty integral to the thread...I seem to remember someone saying that I can't link to anything and everything so I want to make sure it's ok before I do it?! I did look through the NS stickies at the top but theres so much in them to sift through I thought I might get an answer easier this way.
Cheers

Perhaps you could be a little more vague?

Regardless of how painful it is, it's a good idea to read this thread, but this post is most relevant.
Forbidden links: There is not, and will not ever, be a definitive list of forbidden links. Since we don't control the content of other websites, a link which was fine yesterday may be forbidden today. Each link is judged on a case by case basis, and occasionally the Mods will outlaw certain sites.
* Any outlawed site is forbidden in the forums, as a signature, as a motto, as a World Factbook entry, or in any other format.
* 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.
* Some generally unacceptable popular sites include ebaumsworld, albinoblacksheep, and plasticnipple.
* Don't link to sites where you (or a friend/relative) stand to gain financially. Feel free to contact Jolt for information on paid advertising.
