This whole discussion got out of hand when siiix took offense to me deleting/editing the names of 2 warez files he posted!
He says he has used these files!
He actually should have been banned right away for using warez!
But I let him speak, even though our forum rules say No Warez!

Siiix is only trying to be a smartass by insisting it is ok by law to use a downloaded game as a backup and this is the part where he is totally wrong:
Quote:
there are LAWS in any country this game is distributed that one can have at least 1 backup... how you create that backup is irrelevant (even if its downloading)...
Downloading games is against the law, doesnt matter if you pay for it or get it for free, it is still against the law. That is black and white!

I dont care if people think I am ridiculing him. I dont mind telling him how it is!
I have not yet seen one bit of evidence to say it is ok? Yet siiix himself provided the legal document which 'ridicules' his whole argument.
No where in that document does it say 'it is ok to download a game'!!

Good, then we won't have to spend time with changing the forum rules, after all...
