In regards to my previous post,
I have had 20+ people who just sign up on the forums just to PM me and asking me for the FTP.
I would like to clarify that,
1) I just posted a link to another forum which was deleted.
2) I do not possess the ftp username nor password.
3)I do not have the program.
4)It has been deemed ILLEGAL.
So, in consideration of the above points,
Please do not ask me anymore.
MOD : Please lock this thread. Thanks!

If tricks like that cause as much as 20 people to register solely to PM for such links, banning such accounts outright might be wiser courses of action.ooPo wrote:I have little sympathy for you getting spammed after you pulled a trick like that.
However, I do give him credit to post and ask people to stop asking. He realized that he ran afoul of rules and is attempting to be a better citizen. Lets hope he continues down that course.

My last post was stupid.
Here is my take.
Ok, so stealing is bad. But do we have to wait two years before Sony reluctantly starts selling PSP Linux SDK? If they started doing it now, I know I would buy it in a second. I would be all over a cheap SDK which came with license that would not allow licenseholder to sell their developed product.
I know this is a moral issue, but it is very hard to resist the urge to start developing for a new piece of hardware, especially something this popular. I could care less about the pirated stuff. I didn't even buy the console for games, it's the prospect of homebrew that got me sold on it.

CGhost,
1) Whether or not Oopo would personally download it in a second (Alex, I have no doubt he knew what CGhost meant the first time, you won't win against the troll-master) is really kind of irrelevant. As a lead moderator of these forums, he has a responsibility to enforce the rules and preserve the forum's reputation as a place for cranky, non-warezing developers.
2) With respect to warezing, your projection of your own values onto others can be a little insulting. Lets put up a hypothetical situation analogy:
"You come across $1000 on a table. You know who the owner is but he walked on without realizing it was left behind. The owner is not any acquaintence of yours, and has no relationship with you. You can keep it without anyone knowing. What do you do ? Do you return it, or keep it ?"
Until any of us are actually confronted with such a situation, we can only speculate what we might do ourselves, much less what others might do. Not everyone yet knows the price of their own honor. You would do well not to presume someone else's honor is so cheap, while at the same time revealing your own to be so.
I believe I know what decision Oopo would make, just as I now believe I know what decision you would make. I would be surprised to see either make a different decision; but in your case, the surprise would be pleasant.
