Recent FA rules update (importaint info)
6 years ago
Among all the changes one seems the most importaint:
Code of Conduct 3.3 - Do not post links to content prohibited by Fur Affinity's policies
If you are not permitted to upload or discuss the content on Fur Affinity, then do not link to it, tell users how to find it, or encourage users to seek it out elsewhere. Violating this rule may also result in citation under the site rule the content violates.
What does it mean? Technically it means that from now on you can't post links to sites that in any way break FA rules. And first of all it means IB links. Yeah, even a link leading to IB's front page and a link to your IB gallery (even if your gallery has nothing that isn't allowed on FA).
That's kind of a bad thing because I'm using my IB gallery as a backup one. This means my IB gallery will be first place I move to in case something bad happen to FA or if I decide to leave FA. And you, my watchers, won't be able to find me there easily because now I can't have my IB gallery link on my FA profile. I can't even tell you how to find my IB gallery while it's quite easy to do.
At least this is how it seems by the first look. So I'm going to ask admins about this and let you know when I get an answer.

I think that pertains to a specific work (the content) that violates FA's policies

OP
Perhaps it was conceived in this way, but the rule turned out to be too vague. Heck, even if I tell the site name people can google it to find the site, meaning that by telling site name I break "tell users how to find it, or encourage users to seek it out elsewhere" part of the rule.

What the hell. This rule is so broad it can literally mean anything. I can post a link to my DA or wheasl and that could be in violation. they HAVE to be specific with this or peopel are gonna get reported left and right for the wrong shit.
