spam should never be allowed. plain and simple. you dont realize it, but you are still not allowing spam (which is a good thing).
Spam - "Unsolicited "junk" e-mail sent to large numbers of people to promote products or services. Sexually explicit unsolicited e-mail is called "porn spam." Also refers to inappropriate promotional or commercial postings to discussion groups or bulletin boards."
thanks goes to google.com & getnetwise.org for that word definition.
as you can see, the keyword(s) would be "Unsolicited" & "inappropriate promotional or commercial postings".
therefore, if someone asks for (solicits) links to content providers, it is impossible to spam them as long as you stay on topic.
nice move on the new forum addition btw.
