We attempted to reach out via Discord DM to notify you of the issue - doing it publicly, such as via comments, wasn't the way we wanted to go about addressing this.

Unfortunately, there was no response to the Discord DMs that were sent, and we really didn't want to leave a link to a porn site live on someone's profile. Given that, we elected to remove the link directly and send an on-site notification about it.

(We don't actually have a non-warning messaging system built in yet; a developer had to manually send that notification. It's something we do want to build, and that would have been used to first alert you to the problem before we removed the link if that system existed. It doesn't, so we used Discord instead.)

In short, this was a last resort after privately reaching out was met with no results.
