Don't worry, you're not.

Here's my theory: all threads that deal with illegal music/program trading get deleted.

right then Kid Dynamite, try searching 'off topic' for threads started on file sharing, burning, etc, there's plenty(theres been 2 in the last week to my knowledge) , they both carried on until they died a natural death). i just want to know why that thread was deleted and not just locked?

I didn't see the thread in question, but as a guess

Warez == illegal
File Sharing (P2P) != illegal

I've never started a thread for the purposes of illegal file sharing, and I don't think that Skanky has either. I fail to see the hypocrisy.

Does seem kinda strange since the starter stated he asked if the subject was legit and reported that it would be if it avoided certain subjects.

Maybe some twots couldn't avoid those subjects?

reds, haven´t you been listening to what Ming and Markos has said countless times?

There IS no free speech at Apolyton!

Apolyton is NOT a democracy but a privately owned site!

From the faq

quote:
The forums are moderated, someone has the ability to ban people and close and delete threads. How can you have such rules? Where is freedom of speech?

Use of these forums is a privilege, not a right; in return for this privilege, you are asked to follow a few simple rules. The "freedom of speech" guarenteed by (for example) the U.S. Constitution only protects you from governmental intervention in your right to express yourself -- it doesn't give you free reign to use computer resources against the wishes of their owner.
(revised in v.1.1, 26/July/99 and v.1.6, 27/September/99)


quote:
XVII) Hey, I don't like these rules!

We're always open to criticism, but noone is forcing you to post on our forums.
(added with v.1.5, 7/August/99)
We were a bit reluctant to say it in this past, but this a privately owned forum, not a public square. It is our right to accept or not accept certain kind of discussion or certain kind of users. We will be seting the rules and enforce them as we see fit. We believe in freedom of speech, but again, this is not a public square(there are laws that apply to public squares too, but that's another issue ). We hope that you understand our position


On the other hand...

quote:
X) What can I post?
Anything, as long as it is on-topic (or off-topic in the OT forum), and it's not covered in "What can't I post?"

XI) What can't I post?
Insults, flames, hatred comments, spamming, advertisements are an abuse of your priviledge to post and can result to a penalty


Warez and stuff don´t seem to be a forbidden subject according to the faq

Full PM-box? Change here!

That would have to be a pretty broad definition of 'advertisements'

Interesting that ACOL states this particular rule so clearly, whereas Apolyton doesn't.

Your problem... maybe you shouldn't waste your time in those kind of threads then. It's usually pretty obvious that a thread isn't going to last long... well, obvious to most people
