because SOE owns the files and can do what they want with them, you don't own them and don't have SOE's permit ion to hand them out.

If you can get SOE to give you permit ion IN WRITING then we would all grovel at your feet and allow you to hand them out. Till then, you don't have to understand, its Illegal wether you understand or not.

woops

sorry, guess I joked around about the wrong topic. I didn't mean to ruffle so many feathers.

Perfect quote from another site: it's immature pricks who refuse to read the numerous stickies in every forum pointing out what to do and what not to do that get flamed. Grow up and learn to do your fucking homework before opening your cake hole, junior. EQEmu doesn't like you anymore, and that's why you're getting errors. So go away.

Noone said anything about copywritten files I was just reffering to stupid laws, not saying anyone should break them. NOr would I suggest anyone break your community laws. Anyway no reason to be a jerk, I would rather not be a member of any community with people like that.

So heres another perfect quote: Kiss my ass?

Theres a difference.
If you jaywalk, most likely nothing would happen.
If this became a place for EQ Warez, EQEMu most likely would be shut down, much like Scorpious2k and Winter's Roar which have been shut down and did, notably, have patchers (not saying that was the cause, I do not know the facts well enough)

C++ is wonderful.

The C&D specifically stated why they were coming after the Scorp site, it was because we used EQ names and graphics on the site without there permition

Rember that pic of the high elf on the main page at the very bottom, yep they gave that as one of the 20+ examples they listed.

So EQEMU has gotten permission for the ones on the homepage here? If not then perhaps they should be changed ?
