Everyone of those are found here on Paizo, but not at Goblinworks.com forums.

Although the list does not include, but should, an Email / PM system.

An example of an obtrusive download link would be if you go to www.mmosite.com and your screen is consumed by "Download MMO Name Now" or something similar that you have to click past to get to the actual site.

This practice seems to have fallen out of popularity and I can't immediately recall any games currently doing it. Runescape was for awhile but at least on mobile devices they aren't anymore.
