Forum matters and piracy

Oh, I see, you want to deflect from the point.

Fine. Strike my reference to starting threads if it makes you feel better. Makes no difference to my point.

The way I see it you have a choice: you can post juvenile (ironic, eh) and condescending threads that have the potential to insult, or you can do something proactive about it. You're the one wah wah about repeating yourself no end on the subject (or was that gross exaggeration?

), so perhaps you might want to have a little reflective thinky to see whether you can handle the subject better. Or, take onboard criticism posted here. Or, do nothing at all and maintain the status quo...in which case don't bug us about it.

But clearly, leaving crack/pirate posts for the inevitable FAQ quote, "oh oh" posts and "The Management" post isn't working, is it?

I might join you. It's getting so dramatic over nothing.

If you bring your own popcorn.

Why is it the SH5 section has become the never ending area for soap box drama?

It's a neverending first week after the release atmosphere here.

I can't believe you even know that such a song exists on youtube.

Now, that's not very nice.

Why not merge all the posts (and threads if it's a fresh post) about piracy or cracking into one thread called 'I didn't read the forum rules'? That would keep the forum nice and tidy... apart from the follow up threads of 'What happened to my thread?'.

If someone doesn't read the Forum rules?
Why in Heavens name would they read a thread named
"I don't read the Forum rules"?

And if such a thread existed?
It would devolve into a steaming heap of garbage like so many others have already.

'The Compost Thread'
That's what we need.

Throw all the crap in that and let it steam.

Simply delete them on first site or lock em like the spambot threads.
