                            Right. by Naruki 2003-07-11 18:50:04
There are a number of illogical "rules" that aren't clearly defined.

The majority of [normal] people will be fine with that. But a lot of [anal retentive] geeks will want more precision. Like me.

A link is modded why? Offensive content. But WHY is it modded, specifically?

The only reasonable reasons I've been able to glean are:
a) the content is offensive
b) someone could easily click that link and become offended/in trouble (like at work)

But this leaves us wondering why a "described" link is modded. If I only post the address _without_ a clickable link, why is that modded?

a) someone could cut and paste it into the address field accidentally and get offended/in trouble

But if I put a DISCLAIMER saying that it was unsafe? Cutting and pasting require EFFORT. Seeing a clear disclaimer would warn you not to go to the effort to become offended.

There are still strange gray areas here.
