Smoothgunner, yes, you can absolutely go ahead and specify that you aren't looking for illegal sources, if you're not. But if you fail to do so, that still doesn't make someone else's breach of the rules your fault. I want to say this again, and I really, really want you to take it in this time.
You are not. responsible. for someone else's behaviour. Not one bit.
Now, if you'd asked for places to pirate copyrighted material, then sure, you're meddling in dangerous waters, and might have gotten punished yourself. But that's not what you said, so absolutely none of this is your problem or your concern.
My message to R-d-productions was pretty sharp, yup. This is because every one to three months or so, we get one to three people popping up and spreading that link around. If you test the rules, eventually something will happen. I have no patience for someone coming here and deciding that rules don't apply to them. They apply to everyone. And R-d-productions has done some questionable shit in the past, another reason I was less apt to be super-sweet and gentle about this. I don't hold a grudge and I'm not angry, but I also don't see a need to be really nice about it if someone breaks a rule either. Ignorance of rules is not an excuse for breaking them. We've updated them, and I know they're a long-ass document, but they're pretty damn thorough about what is and is not allowed. And if after reading them you're still confused, ask first. Someone will clarify, and then you can avoid getting yourself in trouble.
