[Question] Is this considered advertising?

[Jas]

If I share a Mediafire link that contains a torrent for an anime episode, is that considered advertising? If not, is it breaking any rules of NB?

I think it is.
Last Week I posted a link to a gfx website and got banned for 1 week.

No, no it is not. Mediafire is not a Forum.

 

[Memento Mori]

Yes it is as it shows many adds on the way to the original link

I read through the rules a few times, and I understand it as if someone shares a link to another website related to anime, mange or gfx it is against the rules. However if I share a torrent for an anime episode without it containing ANY kind of ads, then this is simlpy not against the rules.

This website may contain a virus.

Well, I guess you should contact a moderator.

Only things you can link are "legal" stuff such as Youtube vids, google, etc. You cannot link torrents and other similar stuff. You cannot link manga forums other than NB, other forums, etc. You can link Mangapanda, *********** or Mangareader pages as those are the normal sources for the manga on the site. But only when referring to a chapter, page or similar. Not for the heck of it. You cannot link anime downloading sites. These rules extend towards PM and VM messaging. Also, you cannot link personal facebook pages or other social media pages from a specific individual or that advertise something. You cannot advertise products or services directly or through linking pages. You cannot advertise yourself in other platforms here either. If its to reply to someone who asked you something like "hey, do you know where I can find the latest episode of X anime" and you know how to, simply direct the person on their search but don't link anything. Tell them what to write on google or wtv is needed but don't link the source directly.

Exactly. As he said.

I seen people linking to the latest episode of an anime. They link you directly to the source, which is another anime website. So that's why I was all confused.

That is not allowed and if its going unchecked, you should report it.
