Any flash that plays audio or requires an overly large download WITHOUT user intervention should be pulled under this rule too. Also, to help enforce the "invisible" rule you could see if you can prevent flash files with the width or height of 10px or less being allowed. Simply an idea.
I think both of your ideas are great suggestions and the suspension is fine by me. As said before, this is a community and I'm not here to tick off others -- the friendly atmosphere here at GBAtemp is what makes this my favourite.

If I can't resist to click a link someone posted and it's a Rickroll then that's my problem, but everything else is just annoying. Just my two cents.

You silly boy. My speakers were on loud and it made me jump you invisible rickroller, you.
If you don't want a boot, I'd change your post as you pretty much did the same thing by quoting him.

Even if this is the Testing Area, it still could potentially spill over onto the main forums.

I know about the lack of standards for TA, but seriously, this shit has gone on long enough, hasn't it?

Don't get us wrong.
Flash animations that are automatically played (eg. bidoof crap) are also prohibited because they prevent users from reading forum pages normally.
However, invisibles ones are even more strictly reprehended as they were purposedly made harder to spot, and thus harder to moderate.

*genuine suggestion*

The moderators should install adblock plus for firefox, it shows a big "block" tab over any flash animation, no matter the size.
