Re: plz say atleast why - plz - am i missing something

It was locked because the Forum rules specifically prohibit help being given for p2p software.
Quote ...
Keep it legal
Keep it clean and do not post pornographic material or link to it. In addition, do not post anything warez relaetd or related to other illegal acts. This includes tech support troubleshooting pirated software or P2P programs (i.e. Gnutella, Kazaa) used to obtain pirated software. Exceptions are helping to remove spyware or browser hijacks (that may or may not be related to illegal material) from a computer.
Bitorrent is simply another file sharing software program. The rule is in place because by far the majority of material obtained through use of such programs is illegally obtained and retained. People are acting illegally, in most instances, by downloading music and movies etc. instead of legitimately purchasing them.

We do not help people do this here, and unfortunately that means we also can't help people who are obtaining legitimate material through file sharing networks.

So you want us to help you do something illegal. Geez, I just can't imagine why that thread was closed.

Re: plz say atleast why - plz - am i missing something

Childish 'flaming' is as unwelcome here as is piracy talk/assistance.

There has been no suggestion that sunandoghosh is actually downloading illicit material. Bitorrent can be and is used for legitimate file distribution as well as for piracy. some musical artists etc distribute their product ONLY via Bitorrent.

The rule here exists primarily because we have no way to determine if the use is legitimate or not, and because the prdominance of people use it unlawfully.

In the absence of indications to the contrary, decency would demand that we give the benefit of the doubt to the member who has been somewhat embarassed in this instance, would it not?

Re: plz say atleast why - plz - am i missing something

I think I see the huge misunderstanding here.

SC probrably just glanced at the previous topic, saw what he thought as illegal and posted the sarcasm, then I looked at that, saw that SC thought it was illegal, and therefore thought that this is how we all think of him, especially since Catweazle added the quote from the forum directions.

So now let's get this straight. I don't think you are a pirater, and neither does anyone else who has read this thread more than once through.

OK?
