    No one buys in it all honesty so there's no point pretending people do. Habbox(Forum) even used to have guides on how to obtain SAM for free and even hosted copies of it at one stage I believe (it might do still but in staff sections?).

    It is of course illegal but easy to obtain never the less.

    It's stealing.

    Regardless of if its just a copy or not, it's stealing.

    If you can't afford something, you don't buy it, it's that simple.

    I don't see why the same isn't considered for software. Furthermore I don't understand why habbox forbids users to sell runescape accounts, yet allow people to break the law?

    There has been no law breaking in this thread what so ever, get off your high horse.

    I don't want to use a forum where I'd be infracted for advising someone to drive 80 on a motorway because everyone else does. It's not breaking any rules or laws to suggest to others they could break the law, to do so would be censorship as ultimately it's up to the individual whether they break the law or not.

    I've seen people say they will PM illegal links plenty of times.

    People do need to make a living

    Yes but you will never stop people from illegally getting software. It was already a proven fact that people who downloaded music illegally bought more music than anyone else.

    I never denied it was but they say illegal downloads are against the forum but when people go oh I'll send you the link obviously they can't see the PM's I just thought I'd mention it.

    So long as the links etc are kept private, then it's not going to a) cause legal trouble for Hx or b) tarnish their reputation, it's not a problem

    True. I gather they don't supply SAM Broadcaster any more. I know for the stations I run and for my upcoming one many will download it. But I don't supply it and get them to sign a contract meaning its down to them and I/the station are safe.
