Having nudist and nude links violates their TOS if you read it.

I'm afraid you just got caught up to when someone related your links with the sites TOS.

About the only thing you can do is change hosts, or remove your links to nudist or nude sites.

CFI/CFF is in the same situation with their merchant processor:

No one under 18 years of age allowed to post or become a member.

No under 18 images, [nude or otherwise] solo or with adults nude or otherwise.

No posting of underage age, address, phone/cell #, school, or any personal information as to identification, or image.

Let me get this straight.... you're on a FREE web-hosting service, which has stated rules.

You apparently broke the stated rules.

They told you stay within our rules, or you can't be here.

Gee. Sounds like there's a rather simple solution here.

Time to change hosts!

This time, make sure the one you choose doesn't have rules against what you plan to do.

I really hate to say this, and I am sorry to have to do so, however I must. You blew it.

You can easily get hosting for around $4 - not much at all.

Short answer - no.

Free sites can do what they want.

I get complaints of that with regularity.

Often these sites will flag any site that has any CPU drain or click-through popularity and try to sell them paid space if it is a part of their business plan. Some sites offer free space with expectations that they might be able to get you to upgrade to a paid plan.

Yahoo-Geocities is like that. If your free site draws too much bandwidth it gets cut off for a period of time, then the cycle repeats. To get around having your site belly-up they offer paid plans.

Many hosts usually refuse adult sites because of the drain on their systems.

Yes, nudism is not "adult." We know that, but the vast majority of people at large don't get it.

Move on.

Hopefully you saved your materials so you don't have to rebuild from scratch.

Interesting item... while researching a new host not that long ago I came across a reasonable company that was hosting some rather controversial materials and domains so I figured they might be willing to host a nudist site that was a proven series of pages with little to no nudity and certainly not a sexually explicit adult site that might drain their servers.

Answer - no. No nudity allowed and they were not even interested in pages that carried the topic with no images.

Company was located in Orem, Utah - smack dab in the middle of Mormon country. Once I ID'd the physical address of the company it was clear why they had that policy.

Remember, we are protected from government intrusion with respect to a free press. The law says nothing about private commercial publishers - which web companies are. They can allow or disallow pretty much anything they want, just like a grocer can limit what brand names he carries on his shelves.

Sux, but there is nothing you can do really.
