What a load of @#$%!

I'm sorry but in my opinion, showing the links to users on vb.org (especially coders who's hacks are being redistributed) would be the least that can be done. Inserting the link in a [code] tag, would make it only viewable to licensed users. Why does it matter if licensed users know about warez sites considering they already have access to all of those things regardless?

I'm sure that if your hacks were being redistributed, you'd like to know.

Given what Amy said, quite a few here that lurk and simply download probably are pirates and giving them yet another resource to pinch from isn't what Jelsoft or the administrators/staff here at vBulletin.org would like to do.

While they can just as easily download from here as they can elsewhere, we don't want to give them yet another resource they can head over to and download from by providing an open link; within the code tags or not.

The best thing to do in ANY case is simply report the link and let them deal with it. Posting the links in the open, be it to licensed members or otherwise, honestly doesn't do any good and just ends up having another staff member or user report it.

If you've already reported it, there's no need to post about it. If Jelsoft deems it a pirating website, it will be dealt with accordingly.

I see this stuff on the newsgroups all the time.
