Topic: Nearly broke a (surprisingly obscure) rule

Posted under General

So there's a rule that isn't documented anywhere on the site, possibly due to the fact that it's common sense.

One that I would've broken, had I not been smart enough to ask one of the IRC staff members about it (Many thanks to Theta).

I request that this rule be made clear, so nobody breaks it on account of it's obscurity.

Don't link to Warez.

This is nice and all, but you didn't mention the rule so obscure... you're just telling people to not link to something specific. If my understanding of WAREZ is correct, then there probably is a well-written rule on it or similar.

Not only pirated content but there is also a risk of inadvertently giving someone a nice little virus, ransomware and the like.

Ah yes, the ever so evasive "rule on pretty much every site" rule.
