There is a certain website that reallllllly isn't liked around here...you probably know what it is and maybe even go there. It is a calculator for figuring out the value of the metal content of certain coins. I fear discribing it more than that for fear my post will be "modified."

When a newbie happens to metion it, it gets deleted automatically. I have no problem with that...but I would like to avoid it if it's dangerous, misleading, etc...

So, can someone explain why this site is totally banned from the CCF? Should I avoid it?

Thanks in advance!

The owners of that site relentlessly spammed here under at least a half dozen IDs over a period of months. That link will never again be posted here after they headaches they caused.

Most of the time it's because the owners of some websites repeatedly spam this forum and other times there are malicious scripts and potential viruses there. We don't want to have any dealings with these people as well as potentially leading out members to most certain doom.

Ok, I gotcha. Thank you for explaining!!

...now, this is the part that worries me "potentially leading out members to most certain doom."

Gulp...huh?

Being a new member, I hope I will know these sites. So that I could avoid visiting it. Or maybe I have already...

If you do the link gets removed. Just dont try to trick the system to get it posted. If its blocked, its blocked for a reason.
