I am sorry to go back to this, but what I posted here was not a "public flogging," as Zelda so ridiculously states.
I posted this,
"Sweeneyfan, please read the guidelines for posting on the site.
This is not the forum to discuss unauthorized recordings. "
I thought Sweeney was being tongue in cheek and I responded with a flip remark, that I intended as humourous and good natured advice. It would have been wrong to send a PM since the problem is that it was a public post.
I did not discuss how I personally feel about the subject of unauthorized recorded material.
From our lovely FAQs:
That video is called a "bootleg". I know, it sounds illegal, it looks illegal, it MUST be illegal. And it is. Bootlegs shouldn't be discussed openly on the boards, but if you would like to private message a user that has hinted that they have access to such videos, you are welcome to contact them.
Message from Rob(site owner and operator):
"Just a reminder, as myself and the other moderators have had to delete multiple discussions on the subject over the past few weeks.
Linking to bootlegs, discussing bootlegs, discussing where to find bootlegs, and asking for bootlegs are all against our board guidelines. Please keep them off of the message board, bootlegs are illegal.
We've been faily lenient in terms of suspending members who continually post about them, but if it keeps up, we're not going to have a choice."
I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.
