Hrm.
Well, I checked and it's not against MAL general TOS.

IN terms of forum rules, all I got is:
Section I: Banned Content
The following content is BANNED from all sections of MyAnimeList.net:
1. Links to torrents or direct downloads to anime episodes, manga chapters, movies, games, or other copyright infringing content (links to download sites are allowed, e.g. an AnimeSuki link to a page containing torrents is allowed, a link to the actual .torrent is not)
2. Pornographic images (including but not limited to, explicit depictions of sexual acts, bodily fluids, etc.) Links to NSFW content must be indicated as such.
3. Links to any licensed content on YouTube or similar video streaming sites.
4. Anything that would be considered illegal in the United States court of law.
In terms of #2, I would probably have been safer with redacting even the thumbnails into links, but I certainly had them all labeled NSFW.
Thanks for the heads up, though. I may or may not repost the others back in as well-labeled links. I believe that should be sufficient. |
