LOL you still can't explain how the two are any different. Take a shot at that before deciding one is warez and the other is not. If the two things are the same then they should be treated the same. This thread is cracking me up. Look, its your board and you can do what ever you want and I don't care. You keep responding to me and claiming to be standing on some level of legality when in fact your not at all. Why don't you just come out an admit that the only reason one is allowed and not the other is because you say its so. Don't pretend that its for any other reason. You wont be the first or the last to end an argument that way. Otherwise explain how there is a difference between using, or telling people how to use, the files off the eq CDROM to play on the emulator is any different then telling someone if they change something in thier installation they will download patches from Sony for the zones they didn't have the CD for. In both cases you are using Sony's property against thier wishes. I think one problem that we are having here is that you don't really have a grasp of how software licensing works or what the word 'warez' actually means. Read the software license for EQ. You don't have to agree to it or not. If you bought and installed the files on your computer you agreed to it. And please stop calling it warez. The term doesnt fit at ALL
warez
/weirz/ A term used by software pirates use to describe a cracked game or application that is made available to the Internet, usually via FTP or telnet, often the pirate will make use of a site with lax security.
