Is obfuscating links allowed in a scam accusation?
URL is broken by space, meaning that you will not be redirected from the forum to the mixer, and since the post in scam board and its purpose not for advertisement, then there is no reason to delete it.

This varies from ShortURL which still redirected the required page from the forum.
If links to mixer directory sites that deal mostly with the topic of mixers are allowed, there is no reason not to allow the display of the mixer's name in the scam accusation. Especially if it is not a link and is not clickable.
The only way to unambiguously mention a mixer without a link is to add a space. In the scam accusation, it is very important to specify the correct domain, because it is not always the same as .io or .com, for example. I don't see a problem here.

Also when you see the Theymos statement, it says the mixers can be discussed otherwise, most probably in the scam accusation section if there is to warn everyone of any mixer (and not to promote it).
And that URL shortening is not allowed.

- Mixer URLs will be automatically wordfiltered out, but you can still discuss mixers otherwise. Using link-shorteners or other obfuscation techniques in order to post URLs which would otherwise be wordfiltered is not allowed.
