Again Im not being argumentative.  I know you guys see it as crazy too but you just dont want to come out and say it.  I get this is an awesome site so we all can overlook something so minor to participate.  Im just pointing out its a flawed rule.  You will never see me post a direct link.  Thank you to everyone that makes this site great.

You remember when your Momma said..." because I told you so!" Lots of times that didn't make sense either but you did it.  ;)

I know one elderly fella real well, who's been on PA for bit over a year. But who occasionally forgets about the "direct links" taboo.
That fella is thankful for the "warning" messages to jog his memory.
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Would the .org, .gov, .edu  suffix be allowed and the .com be a no no. Or would a "if they offer to sell anything" it's a no no be a better rule. Like Wikipedia is OK and Walmart is a no no?

At one time we didn't allow anything but have made some concessions over time

How about every anniversary of your sign-up, you have to pass a test on the rules?  And if you can't pass the written test three times, you have to make everyone a new set of arrows?

I am setting up a website and will post the address later.  Ain't selling a single item.  However, if you send me your username and password, I will take the test for you!  All for the low, low price of a matched set of cane arrows.
