Default Pseudo URL in Location

User ace_in_the_hole currently has a location of "2outer.blogspot," which is obviously a plug for his website.

I PMed him once and told him to change it when it was http;//...etc, and he changed it to this.

Have him change it again?

Yeah, and let me know if he continues to be difficult about it.

Will do.

PM Sent.

It is against 2+2 policy to have urls in your location.

I know that "technically" this isn't a URL, but it is obvious enough what it is refering to.

Please change it.

Thanks,
Jim

Location is part of the profile. In this post he says there are no restrictions on profiles.

URLs are not allowed in the location field. Here's a long thread about it:

What about URLs that link to NSFW sites?

OK, here are the operative pronouncements from Mat from that thread:

[ QUOTE ]
people can put whatever they like in their profile. there should be no url in the location

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
People can put anything in their profile, but directing people to one's profile in the location or adding the link to a post would require too much investigative work on our part to be allowed.

[/ QUOTE ]

So suspending the requirement of logical consistency, the overriding statement appears to be no links in the location field. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I agree it makes sense to not allow URLs in profile fields that display as part of the post.
