Admin...Ban Starforce posts
 
I think all posts regarding requests for Starforce3 games should be banned. If and when cracks are available that's fine, but there are far too many newbies simply clogging up these Forums with Starforce games requests, without first researching the matter a little. I'm not without blame myself of course, as I've contributed to the bottleneck to some degree, but unless there are technical points regarding breaking the protection to add to the Forums, I don't see the point in them. Maybe a sticky STARFORCE PLEASE READ thread is required.

Yeah, the Starforce threads have gotten out of hand. The only really good Starforce thread I have seen so far is that one relating to the WMP trick. Everything else has been 'tat'. It's been suggested before, between the mods, that there should be a Starforce Sticky of some sort, but just look at the sticky relating to Sacred (Rincewinds 'baby' ;) ). Its just full of people requesting non-exsistant cracks. At the moment, it looks like Starforce threads have slow'ed down for the time being. I guess, if does get out of hand, we will have to act somehow.

So Starforce will increase games sales by reducing piracy will it? Why then has my local Gamestation only sold 3 copies of Toca Race Driver 2 since last Friday? I've got my own ideas on this, as I'm sure you have. ;-)

As my Grandad used to say "The more you mess in S***, the more it stinks".

I think that might be because most people in the UK buy their games from places like HMV, Virgin and Game even though Gamestation is usually cheaper.

I have returned! xDD.

Just only to say a thing, SF3 are going to be beated pretty soon. Don't like to give names, cause scene would feel so unpleased. Anyway, there is just a step to build a SF dumper. Obviously, this will not be available for public ( for evident reasons) but will avoid that manual crac**ng, and we will back to normality.

Anyway, i think it's a good idea to ban any anoying SF post requesting help.(Thats one of the reason i was stopping to read that forum...)

Good luck!

Yeah, I "heard" the same thing, really didn't feel to mention before to avoid possible hysteria....but it will certainly cut the cracking time ;)
