@bi4smooth As background, the invitation rule you provided is from a 2007 post. It's on the same thread that notes "derailing conversations, to complain about topics or individual posters, is not allowed." Now, there's an enforcement challenge that would really amount to something.

I'm not trying to be a policeman - I'm in no position to enforce any forum rules.

Honestly, I previously had responded to just such a post - and provided an invite to another torrent site. I was subsequently chastised/warned by a Moderator that I was in violation of the forum rules - citing that very page.

I don't do that anymore: other than in the Politics section, I try NOT to annoy the moderators of the site... I like my porn!

I made no threat, not even a warning... I just posted that it was a documented violation of the rules... the same Administrator (@raphjd) who posted those rules is the current Administrator. If there have been changes in policy, I'm not aware of it - and there is no reason anyone would single me out to update the policy... Also, if the policy had changed, I'm pretty sure moderators can delete posts...

We could ask the moderators to clarify... but honestly, I've found the less you involve the "cops" and handle things yourself the better... you never know what the "cops" will do! And it's seldom exactly what you want them to do!

As for the implication that I "derailed a conversation",I'll just point you to the original post... a question... CAN I ask for an invite to gay-torrent.org... I answered that question, specifically and directly.

Sorry to get defensive...
