Maybe I should use that instead of goo.gl!

Well, it might be considered commercial stuff, which you know well enough is not allowed.

5 seconds is nothing compared to the modder not sharing his mods, he gets paid and you get the mod, it's just 5 seconds anyway.

Not sure why you'd want to use them here... I've seen it a couple of times, maybe this would actually be better suited int eh all about scratch forum.

That too.  tongue  But in any case it shouldn't be allowed here due to it being an entirely commercial system, getting paid everytime one clicks on your link.

But is it not true that it's still a url shortener?  I use [please don't put commercial ads on Scratch] usually due to the tiny url.  The money is just a side-track.

But there are url-shortners that don't make you wait 5 seconds,

And you could use [please don't put commercial ads on Scratch] as just a normal link, with a special code in front of it, for no seconds wait.  But it doesn't make the link shorter, it makes it longer.  I just like [please don't put commercial ads on Scratch]  tongue

Well, then, use goo.gl. Too bad. Or use bit.ly, is.gd, or tinyurl. Commercial isn't allowed.

I use j.mp because it lets me track my clicks and views etc.
