I think TB censored me!

[vlagroupie]

So I just went over to TB, because I'm clearly bored and don't want to do anything productive around the house, and someone made a post on the local board. I tried to post the link to our new board and when I went back in they put asterisks in, wtf?!?! Attached screenshot just because I'm so confused. Is TB seriously censoring the web address now?

[vlagroupie]

Shit I looked back a couple of posts and this www link has the asterisks in it too.

Yes. Their TOU says you can't take business from their site and refer to another site.

Looks like they did. I've been seeing quite a few posts where others are talking about posts/threads being removed on different boards.

Send the person a private message and you should be ok - unless they are reading those too.

Wow! Wonder if I'll get banned? Haha the little rebel side of me would like that.

I was able to send a PM with the link, but geez that is crazy. They must have changed the tou recently because I've shared the link before.

It was on their new guidelines when the exodus happened. I guess since things have calmed down they now have time to censor everyone.

Try dotcom instead of a clicky link. I can't say I'm surprised though. I lurked bumptara and caitlin before I deleted my account, I NEVER say this, but they are cee you next Tuesday's.

You have to spell it all out because their programmers finally figured out how to automatically put stars in if someone tries the link. It happened on our bmb as well.

They haven't figured out how to edit quotes, so you could wow yourself and it sometimes stick. They have gotten crazy with their deletions and such.
