The
FAQ is still up over there, and it is like reading an old Time (or People, really) that you found in a box with your college stuff while cleaning your basement. Or, for me (since the Spree Disclosure was invented before my time) it would be like finding and reading my older brother's Rolling Stones.
Anyway, to answer your question:
- Q: What is "Spree disclosure"?
A: After a spate of posts that included only a hyperlink to other sites, Latrell Sprewell made a new rule: if someone posts a hyperlink, they must disclose the subject matter of the item to which they are linking. This is to identify to unwary users what is contained behind the link. Past undisclosed links have been linked to sex sites and gore related sites (causing one GA to almost throw up in his office after viewing the aftermath of someone having jumped off of a tall building). A link must disclose the subject matter of the page, or else it will be deleted.
