I don't see why it would ever be on the TOS, it's not really cheating. And plus, if it is just to get higher up on the list, though you may get more hits(people see it's high on the list), the people visiting may see you have a huge number of hits, but when they go and look at your board and see barely any members, they may think "Wow those thousand people who came to this board through the directory, didn't even stay, this forum must suck"...

I don't know, I just made that up...but it could happen.

I just want to know why you are telling on your friends?

This makes complete sense, if you have all those hits but barely any members, and nil posts your just asking for people to not stay at your forum. I don't think it violates any rules but it is rather underhanded.
