I'm sick and tired of those people posting .tk and -------- domains when requesting a site review because they are blocked over here where I live. And because I currently can't find a working proxy, I can't even take a look at their site. Even if it is a working redirection, it still slows down loading time, and reviewers cannot look at the source code. More details are included in the above post. Someone needs to tell these people to stop posting redirections. I would appreciate it if that topic was made a sticky. What do you guys think?
Rather than a sticky, which very few new (or older) members read anyway :rolleyes: a better idea would be to update the rules for site review.
Then if someone posts a redirection for review we can quote the rules of the forum. If they don't change it to their correct URL, we don't review it.

Yes, that's an even better idea, IMHO! :D

I'm the laziest of the lazy trenz, and I still post the real location instead of my redirection URL.

Close the thread for goodness sake if you want to make it sticky.

This is what I've said in like all of those damn sticky threads. It's bloody ridiculous, they get to like 4 pages long of conversation, what newbie is going to read through all that crap?

But usually, all the information is in the first post of the thread. ;)

Even if this is true (which I doubt), what newbie to the forums is going to look at a 5-page thread and think, "Yeah, OK, I'll read through their five pages, even if I did just read through their rules". None.

Well, though it is not 'every post' there is a setting users can choose (some may not know about it, hardcore vbull'ers probably already know):
In your User CP: Edit Options
Under: Thread View Options
Default Posts per Thread:
Number of posts that are shown on one page of a thread.
You can choose up to 40 per page.
