the "learning and asking questions" has something to do with it because there are newbies who ask questions and include links to put more context on what they are asking. if you restrict them from posting links it could make it harder for them to put more context on the question they want to ask.
Okay, fair enough.
The actual point is, that I'm not against newbies, never was, and I want this forum to have more and more users who are genuine and loyal to the forum, I want this forum to become as popular as possible like everyone else. The only thing I'm against is the fact that some people misuse the "freedom" they get in here, that's it.
