Yes the intent of the rule is what should matter. Unfortunately one glaring example of how this was lost over the years is the no forum linking rule. This was added after someone was spamming their forum and recruiting people from GFY.
Now, you can't even link to a mainstream domain forum or wherever else some newsworthy or interesting post is made. You almost can't even mention their names anymore. Someone breaking your copyrights by posting siterips of your content on a forum? Sorry, you can't mention the forum or post a link to it. The current moderators don't understand the original intent of the rule and will ban you for it and remove the link no matter how helpful it might be. If it's a blog or tube or any other type of site it's fine. Just no forums.
