Wow.. who would've thought that would've caused such a debate? LOL

I edited just to keep people from putting a pistol in their mouth, but let me say this:

His question was what does he need to buy to play EverQuest? I answered that question by providing a link to the answer. Not warez, by any means. It's a free trial with the permission of the owning company and he stated he plans to BUY. He also said to play EverQuest. Hence, to me, he's a potential paying customer (albiet on the wrong board). I've read the rules and don't think they apply -- a grey area perhaps but we obviously know what the rule was meant to prevent (it's even stated). This post and that link had zero to do with any of the listed materials and/or subject matter:

- FTP (ie., Patcher) links/info is illegally obtaining files which you do not have permission to download. There intent is to update the software of paying clients with an active account. I may be wrong here but I believe this was to prevent posts detailing how to pull any file, via ftp, from the patcher program (ie., whole expansion). If it literally means ANY ftp it still doesn't apply as no ftp was provided.
- "Warez is any file that has been obtained without purchase from the company or a "legit" vendor, or without the sole permission of the owner, or company is considered illegal and is not permitted on these forums. The link provided access to GET PERMISSION from the company and thus, does not apply either


I really do appreciate the concern but if I had gone over the line I think the boys would've nuked my post. On a side note, I guess it's a good thing some agree since I usually only get time to hit the boards once a week or so.. that would've been a shock :p

In any case, it's fixed now with the sole intention that you all relax... breath... and have a good holiday weekend
