Whether this sort of action will be prohibited in the future, we will find out when the rules are made public...

IMO that is acceptable, as it is contained within the hack thread, and does not intrude elsewhere within this forum...

I think you are missing the point: MrZeroPage didn't knowingly break any rules because he didn't know about the rules which is not surprising because the HotM rules didn't exist at the time he allegedly broke them. Huh? Anyway, even at this moment in time there are no HotM rules except as existing amongst the staff who can most likely change them at anytime to anything they like because they are not written down! What I wonder is what other unwritten rules we don't know about will be applied in other areas of vbulletin.org not to mention other sites in the vbulletin group? For unwritten rules" I think read "whims". It's a dirty business isn't it!
