Default What a load of @#$%!

Ok, well...I haven't brushed up on my Russian lately, but can someone tell me wtf this site is? It looks to me like a site that distributes vBulletin nulled versions and our hacks here. There was even a "hack request thread" where people request hacks (pirates I assume) and those with licenses come over here and post them over there.

I know its "overseas" and maybe protected due to that, but if what I am seeing is true, is there anything that can be done?

I think you may need to remove the site's link, Stangsta.

Yep. And all the nitwits who are willing to share our mods in exchange for download credits at a warez site can read it. Board policy is to not post such links.

board policy should be that you can unmask these pirate sites where they are clearly breaking vBulletin.org rules

I understand policy, I run my own club. But in the end it doesn't seem fair that people can break the rules, then be protected

They are just one of hundreds, if not thousands, of sites that distribute material stolen from here and many others. Not much can be done to stop it, you get one shut down and 10 pop up in it's place...just a fact of life in the world we live.

Unfortunately, some vb.org ARE the pirates. And these guys would love nothing more than a link to another working warez site. You think all these teens cranking out styles for sale paid for photoshop? Maybe a couple of them did.

Report them to Jelsoft and move on. It's all you can do.
