What is the point of not allowed to post links from the "other" PE forum?
Are they our enemies? LoL

Isn t it great when we find something that seems useful from the other forum to post it here for our friends to read and learn?
Am I missing something here? What???

There are other forums?

Why not just cut and paste the post rather than link?

This is a commercial site . The owner thinks it is not in his commercial interest.

The same reason the Costco web site dosn’t allow you to buy products from the BJ web site.

Just a reminder that if you cut and past from another site, you need to name the source of the information.

Google Analytics, which measures 'posts' and judges this site, evaluates presence of commercial off site links, and lowers the ratings of our posts, and therefore the ratings of this website.

Site ratings determine were google places 'pegym.com' in the listing of search results, when some innocent person does a google search for (example) "make my meat rocket longer" or some other search criteria.

Your site has poor ratings, it is placed at the tail end of the collection of search results, and most likely no one would ever visit your site. Search ratings determine how popular your site is, and impacts dollar revenues from advertisers.
