Banned for Piracy?

I haven't been banned from Nexus.
Probably have multiple accounts (Others which can be closed, If its an issue contact me and I'll help find which may be mine but unused.)

I'm just curious to why you'd ban users who are using a cracked version of Skyrim, or Fallout? Its not like they're hurting Nexus at all. Everything here is (ALMOST) free. (You won't see me paying $50 for a mod manager.)
(Inb4 bans me because they think I'm a pirate)

But the gist of it is, a crime is a crime. And you do not talk in public about having committed a crime without facing the consequences.

 

Likewise it is not to be discussed how much of a crime a crime is, how much you disagree, or to contest the rules thereabout in public.

 

And yes, multiple accounts "is" an issue. You better log in with each of them one after the other and request its closure in the Account Closure Requests topic before a member of staff finds them.

We both know that's not going to happen.

 

and its not so much a crime as it is frowned upon. The media industry in general makes millions off of everything they do.

But to each there own.

 

Have fun on this extremely strict. anti freed speech forum.

Pirates are also a pain in the arse, their games could be out of date or not work properly and people end wasting their time trying to help.

Thats true. I forgot all about the version differences.

Thats more so because I usually know what version I'm using if I've pirated it. Never does help me though when I end up buying the product and its become visually upgraded in newer versions and wont run on my Trash Compactor GPU.

Theft of others property is a crime everywhere. And criminal activity is not considered "free speech".

Lack of funds to purchase a wanted game is no excuse to pirate said game. If you are unable to afford the game then you don't need it.

 

That said, the rules of NexusMods are clearly defined as DrakeTheDragon pointed out.

 

End of discussion.
