Sorry, the person before was actually my friend who has my log in(as he couldn;t sign up), but to extend on what he said: Whats the point in e-mailing Infopop? They never do anything about it. I've/Others reported before and they never do anything about it. So he thought he'd post it here in a live community.

Seriously, I brought this up for awareness. I know at least 4 people who have e-mailed infopop with about 3 or 4 illegal forums in each, and nothing has ever been done.

Sorry, to create a similar topic, but I felt it had to be posted.

Go ahead and report them, and go about your business, it doesn't affect you.

Infopop has the information, and if they choose to go after the person, they will. If they choose not to, for whatever reason, that their concern, not yours. You did your part by reporting the board, and I'm sure they appreciate it.

For all you know, a board IS legit. If not, stop and think about how many pirated boards get reported to Infopop [hint: A LOT]. It takes time for them to investigate.

Thanks for the comment.

I appreciate that Infopop get a lot of piracy e-mails, but when its your cmpetition you get a bit frustrated (or did.)

For what its worth though, I know they're illegal, because I talked to an administrator about them, I also know because the owner (thinking I was very friendly towards them) just told me anyway.

Anyhow, I think I'll be quiet, like you said, I'm sure Infopop have a lot on their plate.
