so you can force everyone to take away your hacks for download from their boards.
That's why corbu should ask John for becoming an official, otherwise, he has not other way as to close his site or asking every single author.....
That's not harsh by us, it's law.

I am failing to see why you think getting permission from John means he can distribute the copyrighted works of others. John doesn't own the copyrights - the hackers do. He's still going to need to either get the permission of every single hacker or encourage the hackers to start posting their work on his board.
