A post of mine has been censored because I made it point to one of my scripts which is hosted on Sourceforge.

I am aware that Sourceforge has been known to do discutable things with some installers, but:

  • this didn't happen for every SF download, only for installers (and I have never seen my scripts being "enhanced").
  • furthermore SF management has recently changed and the new one is stopping this nonsense
  • SF isn't the only site with a discutable policy on downloads
  • one would assume that the GC members are giving links to trustable URLs

So is there any good reason to keep that automatic censorship?

@Ofnuts,

Your links will no longer be be removed and I apologizes for removing them.
In the future, links to your Gimp tools and other resources posted here on GC will be an exception.
