• A notice about Rule 3 regarding sites hosting pirated/unauthorized content has been made. Please see here for details.
  • Staff is working to deal with the problem of synonymous tags. See here for more information and to suggest tag mergers.
  • QQ will have forum downtime on October 21, starting at 10:00 AM Eastern time, for software updates.
  • Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com. Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
  • For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
  • Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
  • Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

does bringing up the new ai modding ripping source codes violate rule 3?

i'm not sure if it counts as advocacy for illegal content

*edit: in regards to the videogame thing.

To my understanding you can talk about pirated content and send indirect links to it without issues as long as the page doesn't have a built-in download option. This should also be fine; even sending links to rea's github page should theoretically be fine as having a tool is very different to using a tool to break copyright (I personally wouldn't though).

Also I don't think advocating for piracy is illegal in the US anyways, as long as it's just speech.
 
This sounds like a fine time to reiterate my stance that anyone has blanket permission to use any of my work for any purposes without asking or accreditation in any way they wish in perpetuity. If I one day burn everything, you may restore it from archive, repost it, alter it, and it will not be plagiarism or a dick move to do so. I am copylefted. I am ideologically opposed to the very premise of "intellectual property", "copyright", "patent", "paywalls", and other such things. The only thing I forbid you to do with my work are actions that would stop others from also using my work, such as by trying to paywall or copyright or patent it yourself.
