Adventure Forums - View Single Post - When did posting links to game music become verboten?

In the Gabriel Knight 3 music thread, AFGNCAAP asserted that it was against forum policy to post links to ripped soundtracks of games.

My question is: Has this always been a rule? Or is it new?

There's no prohibition on posting links to simply music in the forum rule list. I checked.

I certainly don't recall any admonitions for linking to, say, Laserschwert's page on MixnMojo, even when his site still included the Emperor's Tomb soundtrack.

I hate the notion of "unwritten rules," so I humbly ask the AG mods to either add this rule to the forum rule list, or to state categorically that it is not a rule.

Thanks.
