I don't know what the direct link deleted from this thread was, but the "direct link" rule states:
"
- no direct links towards files hosted by other sites (.exe, .swf...), the links must point towards a Web page (HTML, php...)"
So, according to that rule, a link to a
Web page that has a download link to a game is legal and should not be deleted.
An example of a legal link to a familiar game is:
http://www.hornygamer.com/adult-games/s ... ams-2.htmlAn (edited) example of an illegal link to that game would be:
http://(host)/games/secret-fantasy-dreams-2.swf
A game at a download site, paid or otherwise, is not specifically addressed by the existing rules.
As an example: Shark uses Rapidshare to provide downloads for his games. Would a link to the Rapidshare page be legal or not? I say legal. You might say not. The rule needs clarification.
That's the way the rules read, anyway, and I've stated this case before.
