Also, there's the chance the links are being reported by people who aren't members of Fakku. It's not hard for a person to see an upload here and paste it on another site, and then someone else could report the links.
and btw I always though that it is an unwritten rule NOT to provide the links you get here anywhere else.....
It's an unwritten rule? I've never heard of it, and I don't think it counts as common sense. If a regular person sees a link for something on a site, and another site he's on wants the stuff, of course he's going to link it.
Also, there are search tools that let people find links posted on websites without even going to the site. There's one I use often, Megadownload.net, that gives me all sorts of things from all across the internet. It's possible that links on Fakku could be found (and reported) using such a tool. But it is far more likely that it's a user on Fakku reporting the links, I'd say.
Anyways, I have the perfect solution to this problem. If an uploader wants only people with at least ten rep to be able to download his stuff, he can make a thread in the section saying what he has. He won't put download links in the thread; instead, he'll put, "PM me if you want the links and have at least ten rep." That way, the uploader himself controls it.
