ok. I just read rules http://peachyforum.com/forums/t/131520.aspx because someone deleted my post and I wanted to be sure there wasn't a reason in forum rules. There wasn't and that ain't really important but it is important that second sentence of rulez says 'First Read General Rules' but that link doesn't work. Difficult to read then. Same in list of banned sites http://peachyforum.com/forums/t/155825.aspx where second sentence says 'See' and the link is dead. If those pages dont exist anymore the confusing dead links should be removed. If pages moved somewhere else links need update.

If you are talking about these links?

http://peachyforum.com/forums/t/155825.aspx

These are Example links.   Links to Banned sites will NOT work.  Links to banned sites Can not be made to work.

Some users Still try to make Work around links to banned sites.  (SEE This)

IF you are talking about General rules.

They are now posted. Where you go to reply.  Click on reply tab.  You will see a bunch of words. Read that.

Most users just scroll them down to get rid of them. (Unread)

No, I was talking about the 'see' link. On page List of Banned Sites (http://peachyforum.com/forums/t/155825.aspx) the post say

'READING ONLY - NO REPLIES PLEASE. (UPDATED Oct.29.2008)

See http://peachyforum.com/forums/thread/303001.aspx

List of banned sites - for explanation of reasons see further below: (and long banned links list.)'

But if you try to click the link that it say we should see (this: http://peachyforum.com/forums/thread/303001.aspx) that link doesnt work. If the page we are supposed to see has moved then that link should be updated to make it work. If it just is gone the link should be removed to avoid confusion. There was a similar 'See' with a not working link in 'forum rules' post but that is now gone.

Contents of that thread a.w.a. of some other relevant threads have been replaced by a text at the top of the reply-frame, which you're supposed to read before posting. With big letters RULES
