Why have any geocities specific rules any more if geocities doesn't

If the links are still appearing in SPAM then no, don't delete the
rules, just bump up the scores.

Would this not be almost entirely pointless? With spam the motto is
'follow the money'. if the link does not work, there is no path to the
money to follow. Other than prospecting for valid recipients {which
could be done just as easily without the link} there is no benefit for a
spammer to include a link of this nature.

Sure. that has nothing to do with what I said.

If it still shows up in spam, score it higher.

It would be stupid to remove the rules if they are still hitting.
