Weird!!!

I was wondering, I have a link in my signature. I have registered with a ". tk "and it shows up in the link as http://poofyfinger****/

why are you guys blocking my links? or is the . tk in general. ?!


-poofy :x

. tk links have been blocked because they have been associated with spoilers and HL2 beta stuff. So the admins at this site decided to block all . tk addresses.

That makes just as much sense as blocking .org or .com addresses because warez sites use them. :|

no, its because the spolier script stuff is housed at those domains, not just spoilers in general. they dont want people clicking on links and suddenly executing a script that posts spoilers under their names

That makes sense

not really, just because **** is a free redirector doesn't mean it shoud be blocked. How about we block geocities because people use that for scripts, , or SHUT DOWN THE WHOL FORUMS!!1111 OMG!11 /me goes mad. Well I am overexagerating but still.

Hey we're lucky they allow hotmail or yahoo accounts to be created here.

Personally, i'd rather block **** than not. A spoiler free forum is a happy forum.

**** ******** DOOM III? ******** ************

Thing was, all the spoiler script sites ran from . tk

It may seem stupid, but create a tinyurl to your site, poofy.. or something in that fashion

i can do that, its not really my site per se, because its not even up yet, but it redirects to somethingawful.com lol just as a temp tester.

Thanks for all yer input

I'm still unhappy about the t r o u t w a r s being censored

I'm afraid dot-tk is far too open for abuse with free instant signups where you don't need to disclose any personal information. .com/.net and other costly domains are a lot easier to control. We've had a lot of problems with domains registered with dot-tk and to stop the mass spamming and spoilers and all we've banned it.

Here's some other domains like dot-tk you could use instead.

http://nic.co.sr/eng (www.yourdomain.co.sr)
http://www.uni.cc (www.yourdomain.uni.cc
