Why arent we allowed to link

[shortylickens]

to Ask Men Dot Com?

I was trying to post an article showing god awful their writing is.

Humm, good question. I'm not in charge of the censored domains list, but I don't immediately know of any reason why it would need to be censored.

We Men are always wrong. As a website that seeks to inform, AT saves us the trouble.

I know they have some pretty sexist and disgusting articles sometimes, but that was the point, I was trying to show how bad they can get.

They dont have explicit nudity on their site, and lately very few babe pic in general.

You need at least one female channeler for men to be able to link.

Wait what? Link to ask men? No idea.

I removed his posts from the forums and, for reference, I placed them in one combined thread off the forums.

This guy was reported a number of times by us and other forums on stopforumspam.com, an online service that lists and tracks reports of forum spammers, including their user names, e-mail addresses and IP addresses.

User name search.

IP Address search.

It is our standard practice to censor the domain names of spammers' target sites. When I do so, I try to search enough and be careful not to censor valid domain names just because they were abused by spammers. Searching Google for the domain name + spam finds numerous links suggesting askmen . com is indeed a problematic site.

OK, so in addition to having crummy articles they also seem to pay off guys that spam us for them.
Then I guess I dont need to link to their stuff anyway.
