New sub-forum: Copyright Violations/Rips

[kirupa]

Hey everyone!
A new forum has been created for discussing site rips and such. In the past, most of the copyright violation threads had been closed or deleted, but in this new forum you'll have some freedom to nicely talk about sites/design/etc. that were ripped: http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=62

I'm sketchy as to what the guidelines will be, but I think they are being worked on. By whom, I don't quite know :P

(free candy to the person who posts first in that forum)

Cheers!
Kirupa :gm:

eg. whether i'm free to use a certain track on my website

crap, i want free candy, but dont have anything to post in it right now..

How do you get to it from the main forum?

Edit: It seems that if you stay there for about 10 seconds or so, it redirects you to them ain forum page.

Ohh no, not a copyright forum here as well. Kirupa, who gave you the idea for this new forum? It is going to be a major problem if the forum is not maintained. Strict guidelines should be placed Kirupa. I am a regular at Ultrashock and what happens at their Copyright forum is well out of order, although it is starting to improve after talks with Andy. Discusssing copyright issues have not been such a large problem here because there isnt any regular news on anything being copied. I think it is good to know what is happening with such sites that may be copied but I am against anyone who persists or starts to say any unconstructive crictism especially "DIE RIPPERS", "tHEY SUX".

I was the one who suggested it. And don't worry, we have Dan to maintain the section... and he's really ban-happy ;)

We have a set of rules under contruction.

[minimalistik]

I will apologise if I was implying your suggestion was not good Eilsoe but with the case of it being here now, I hope it doesnt get out of hand which im sure you guys we take care of that anyhow. ;)


it's cool :) I didn't think you meant anything bad with it.

[Krilnon]

Sounds Cool! :)

Thankfully I don't have anything to post in it now though...

[ya3]

lol! nice idea! round up all those rippers :D good thing you didn't think of this a few months back, or else I would have been in it!!! :P

btw, it'd be good to have stuff on legal info in there too.

it won't be a problem don't worry we got it on smash ;)
