Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.

I understand why the referral was deleted, and I support the decision to do so. Posting something along the lines of "I wrote this free library and appreciate donations, should you decide you want to." is a far cry from hiding a referral link in a url. Neither are spam, to be sure, but the latter is certainly "on the slope", and it's a slippery one to moderate.

You know what is ridiculous? You completely removing the link after I removed the referral link. Is the only reason you shared this link with the community to gain in referral promotions?

Seriously guys.. get over it. We don't want people advertising in our forums. Period. What differentiates other spam we get from referral links? It's not like I removed the link completely, simply removed the referral part of.
If you have a problem with my decision.. then you may take it up with another moderator privately. The public forums is not the appropriate section to make a complaint.
