AzirAphale001 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 So long as you're not paying for it then chances are it's illegal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povuholo Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I don't think The Sims has officially been released as freeware, so that site is probably illegal yeah. Or a scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 We do allow links to other game sites, as long as they really are free and not just a scam to get people to click. If you click on a game, and get sent to some other site not related to that game it will be banned. I saw one where about every third click you got redirected to a Canadian pharmacy selling viagra. That one is blocked. We do not allow links to pirate sites, or any site that allows pirated or copyrighted material of any kind. Including games, music, movies or software. Please buy the games and support the game makers or they will not make more games. We do not allow links to any Warez sites We do not allow links to torrents or torrent trackers. We do not allow links to porn sites, sites that allow porn advertising or porn pictures. Bben46, Moderator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilneko Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 If the site you're using is an abandonware site, chances are it's been posted in an earlier thread by LHammonds. ;) Note that thread is rather old. Home of the Underdogs is long dead, don't follow that link. It's a domain parking page today, who knows what it might be tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corlan Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Well, what about people like me? It's really hard to find some games in my country, I payed around 50$ for Awakening, it was really hard to get... And you should consider that there is no such thing as a Copyright Rule or anything here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxXEvandarXxx Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Ok then . ...And this site is not spam!!! Its just forum where people put links to downloads!! Not directly put downloads from their site...So it's not a fake or spam... :thumbsup:But it's still illegal. I don't know about the warez sites themselves, but downloading the games/movies/whatever posted there is illegal. :down: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
