The rules need to be clarified that is a given. There is NOTHING in the rules that simply say you cannot say the word Crack, or so on. No where in the rules is the prohibition of the discussion of the effects of cracks. There are clear details about not discussing THE ACTUAL crack. There is clear prohibition on directions to obtaining cracks.

The spirit of the law WAS NOT VIOLATED.

The law needs to be re written.

Oh Cnet's article was not even about sh5. It was about a console game. This article dealt with assassin's creed II.

Oh, and to all those that say it should have been dealt through PM. I have been trying to contact Neal through that method about other things, and have received only on response. He is extremely difficult to contact through that method. So that would not have been any help to U.G.

Also, understand my view here. I in no way support pirates (I am kinda in support of no cd cracks though because I hate leaving my cds or DVDs in my drive, I have heard nightmare stores of how drive failure has resulted in radial scratches in the media which is essentially ruined). Pirates are the reason we legitimate players have to go through all this lunacy. I don't like how the resale value of the game is all be ruined by this DRM. To me it is equal to a car company saying you cannot sell your car to someone else. But that being said, I do not support these entities. But I also do not like to see the unfair application of rules THAT DON'T EXIST. This is where bad policies based on good laws come from. In this case neither the letter of the rule, nor the spirit of the rule was violated.

Uber's leaving of the forum was a wrong move, in my opinion.
