Is it against the rules to break the law?

Buying the PC alone costs enough money without having to buy a program which if you could get for free is rather stupid? .

**** :/ hxf is hosted in the UK or USA which means posting links to cracks etc is illegal :/

[jesus]

You can just find them on Google anyway. There's no harm in them being here.

@ABOVE; THANK GOD SOMEONE ACTUALLY USES COMMON SENCE ..

Insulting each other wont do anything, so just keep it to a nice discussion.

I find no harm in the thread linking to crack and keygen downloads - however I closed the thread due to offtopic posts (arguing about age and banks or something) and there were arguments such as this which was debating if it's alright to post keygens etc.

more people within common sence!! :rolleyes:

Neither did TV links.

[--ss--]

Sue google then , They allow feeds from sites advertising cracks/illegal content to be shown when they can easily be blocked/filtered from the results but they decide not to get involved with what people do just like HxF , it's not like we have a section for it.
Also why would they care about a small minor forum when there are massive sites who dedicate them self to warez :rolleyes:.

Oh for god sake, use a bit of general knowledge and think what google is compared to a community forum, site that is actually letting them happen.

Seriously, this argument went on in 100's of forums world wide when TV links got closed down.

This forum will get closed if they get cought, the datacenter will without any hesitation close this server off and report the account holdsa details to the police.

You really think the DC are willing to risk there own million pound business for a habbo hotel fansite?

Yes you have, it used to be part of the mod guide thing to anyone thats ripping that we remove the image and put Edited by whoever: please dont take other members images and use without permission, or something along those lines and we'd add an infraction.

Also couldnt we report and get habbox shut down for breaking the law to an extent?

The rules since changed. We no longer infraction members for accusing/naming each other of ripping unless it is in a rude or abusive way.

As I've said the files are not on Habbox's server therefore it is unlikely it would cause a problem. If indeed it did cause any problem I'm sure Habbox would happily remove the content linking to keygens, serials etc but really the people who are likely to get in trouble are those who host the files rather than sites linking to them, it is unlikely that Habbox would get in trouble simply for linking to the content and I expect if the data center had a problem with it or it was necessary to remove such links it could be resolved without any hassle.

It depends I guess. Strict laws would probably stand.
