I posted it as a link in a thread about “screamer” websites. When I was subsequently told that posting these things is expressly forbidden I asked a Mod to remove the link and apologized.

You may want to think about doing the same.

> New rule - we’re tired of seeing that site with a picture that has a face jumping up with a scream. If you’re going to post a link to that site, or another site that is intended to startle/annoy by a sudden sound/image, check with a staff member first.

And since the link has been disabled, I think it’s best we close the thread.
