The OP simply brought this community's attention to an article on a reputable website. Surely we're not going to start adopting such a draconian level of censorship here in subsim ? The subject matter of the article is of direct relevence to this forum. It was posted in way that did not breach existing forum rules and so I can as yet see no reason whatsoever for why it was locked.

Are the management of subsim effectively saying that we cannot discuss piracy at all, no matter if the BBC itself runs an article ?

Personally, I would not be able to participate in a community that exercises such a level of censorship...it sort of falls foul of my 'better world' ideals.

So an honest and open answer here would be greatly appreciated.

Yours, somewhat confused,

UG

Rules say, we don't discuss cracks here.

And that's why this thread is now locked.
