Hi everyone,
Over the past few weeks we have seen a site shut down due to providing links and games live online without proper copyright permissions.
There have also been further warnings submitted to other sites who provide links.
Essentially in the eye of the law, providing a link to download software or copyrighted material is basically the same as distributing it.
As such we are putting a blanket ban on putting any of this information up on the forums or the rest of the site.
I can't stop you doing things like emailing these details but they can no longer be distributed by the forums.
I will be asking the moderators to immediately delete any posts that have these in them. For repeated offenses I will be asking them to use the warning system. When you reach 100% in the warning level you will have a 1 week spell from the forums
Sorry guys It all just comes down to keeping the site alive so :SHTF:
