Spot on. There's literally threads going back to nearly 2000 with still valuable info with links to still present older sources. The image links thing was absolutely needed because- it was a surprise when occasionally looking at TRLE passionate fan screenshots with a Benis amongst them etc which was so funny at immediate view but - the image link purge had to be done for many many reasons.

I am forever linking TRF threads elsewhere, as a route to obtain things from their original post and whatever was sourced. Will always be embarrassed about being a member between 11yo and 16yo I mean...alot of us are the internet was so interesting and crazy! The things some of us used to type and bitch about I couldn't cringe more at if I bump into old stuff. Learning is growing hahahahaha

External links are fine, absolutely no plans to change this.

The new rules on images may be somewhat inconvenient at first however I think most of you understand why the change was necessary. Thank you all for helping me keep this place up and running.

You re more than welcome Justin. Not nearly as active as once was (probably the case for many long term trfers now breaching their 30s.) But I mean, we visit VERY often because of the wonderful content to go back to and the like.

Thanks for keeping this place online for what I'm guessing is coming up 30 years! I think that's a really cool achievement.

Sorry for the mess. Maybe external links is not the correct word. I was replying Charmed, so the external links should have the same meaning as his post.

What I mean is not to allow people use TRF as a image hosting site, by linking the images in TRF directly from other sites. It will increase the cost unnecessarily.
