We could try argue that what is being done is in fair use, but that's expensive to fight and wouldn't happen. What does help the fair use case is the fact that this is a free mod, and not commercial. We can't sell things derived from their copyright products, and we HAVE to maintain this all the way down. Anything commercially derived from this non-commercial mod puts us at risk of legal repercussions. So they are entirely and flat-out BANNED. So: No, you may not sell your script. No, you may not link to places that allow it (not that they have any right to allow it, as I said they have no control over SA:MP copyrights). No, you may not make money off links in your signature (but that's more the other issue that the forums are provided for free, so why should you get to make money off them)?

Makes complete sense. Thanks for the explanation.
