I just feel like the community I choose to represent should be represented along with everyone elses freedom to represent what they want.
You don't have the freedom to represent what you want here. This is a private forum with private rules. The owner could say "I'm going to not allow sigs that link to FFO because I don't like the competition" and it would happen. The staff finds the content of that forum detestable to the point that they'd remove a link for it, and I'm having trouble coming up with a reason to disagree.
