Ban on "Jumping Rick-Rolls" - 04-07-08

I'm sure you're all aware of the Rick-Roll fad. Basically, it involves tricking people to watch a certain video. Now, this is all fine and dandy, but lately, another type of Rick-Roll has been showing up on the forums. This Rick-Roll video jumps around on your computer screen and makes closing the window very tedious. In fact, recently, members have been losing important, unsaved, word documents by pressing ctrl-alt-delete in order to close it. It can also freeze some slower computers.

These have always been against the rules, but we haven't made it horribly clear. These links may not be posted on our forums. This includes signatures, profile comments, and blogs. Doing so will result in an infraction.

If this link appears in your sig, please remove it as soon as possible. Thank you.

It actually isn't because of you. And your infraction is a zero-point warning.
