......I'm just voicing concerns because of the all the brouhaha regarding sharing sites that have been in the news for the past few years, including issues regarding viruses, and how the crackdowns by copyright holders have been increasing. If the material is in the public domain, I'm sure there's no problem......
Hi TDWoj;
Well you are correct about 'cracking down on some sites'...for sure that is true.......half of the sites I used to get bootleg music from are gone or have been given the kindly notice to 'stop it and play nice'.......if anything they are really going after the sites and not users(and even this is being wasted on small file sharing sites.....Do you think that these so-called 'rights holders' actually care about people?....Why aren't they helping to stop the pedophiles that have been destroying children that's been going on in Facebook(last I read there were 40.000 registered sex offenders using it...and that's just the actual registered ones ....or the prostitution/slavery rings that have been going on for years on 'Craig's List'(not our Craig ..of course)....there's no 'money/profit' in it for them......they could care less except for fattening their pockets(sorry I didn't want to get into political stuff....and of course these are merely my own views on it
....I also was wrong in posting 'direct links'...that actually links this forum to the site...so I'm going to edit the links and just leave the address....then this forum merely provides info. for anyone interested in pursuing....what most people on forums and sites do is change the HTTP to HXXP...everyone(I think) knows to copy the address,paste it in the browser and change the 'xx' to 'tt'.....
and again I'm not going to get into the 'politics' of things ....politics seem to deny people many things(as far as I see)....and allow others...
As far as viruses....... that a fact of using the internet.....I know my files are clean....and i would expect everyone to 'scan' anything they download from anywhere...that's common sense practice....
I'll get on the editing right now and just leave the address's.....
I understand your concern....trying to keep a 'quality site' is not as easy as it was 15 years ago.....but try to avoid 'over-kill'...if you know what I mean......lol

PS: Oh Hey TDWoj....how about pulling the old thread 'Seagal Master of Harmony' one for me...it's not needed anymore.........Thank you
