    What are you talking about? As far as I understand, it's the advertisement of other forums that is prohibited. Sure, you can talk about them... just don't be their little marketing bitch.

    Even if it WERE true, you still wouldn't know, because you spelled physics wrong.

    I'm a member there.

    It's like here, but they talk about science and stuff there.

    I haven't posted there in a LONG time.
    These days I prefer bullshit over science.

    was it actualy banned once? it seems if it was that its not anymore. and i was not aware that posting links to other forums was not allowed and could get you banned,

    is this rule told to us anywhere?


    peace.

    I don't think it was ever banned nor is it banned. And I don't recall anyone saying "physicsforum" would get you banned.

    It's possible that when Dave was around it was a bad thing to do...

    Some years ago there was a little bit of a problem with some online anarchists that would appear on a forum and pretty much make out they existed on another forum. They'd attempt to have members from one forum attack the other forum in retaliation and kind of propagate forum wars.

    Of course since then we've got wind of that, and I'm guessing the previous barring of the name of that particular forum was merely legacy.

    Yes, unlike here. I remember when Greg started that site, from the get go he didn't tolerate the kooks and nutters for very long.

    And since I've been recently informed that Sciforums is NOT a science oriented site, I see no reason why there would be a problem in mentioning or advertising their site.

    Sources?
    You went to that dumb website where they talk about how porfiry banned their link so nobody could link that site from here. Who really cares?
    There is http://www.thescienceforum.com anyway which is a third rate sciforums. Ever since porfiry left here, that other one is probably better.

    Let me guess; he throws a tantrum like a two-year old and calls them fuckwits and they immediately go away,
