The rules for entering the monthly showcase contest say no pirated boards. But doesn't a pirated board look the same as a purchased board?
Is UBBDEV.COM directly affiliated with InfoPop or something?


can't find peace of mind but every corner's got a mcdonalds?!

Does it matter? It should be obvious.

If you suspect a board of being pirated, email piracy@infopop.com with the URL, and they will get back to you about it.

Suffice it to say, we've been around awhile and can usually make somewhat-educated guesses about pirated boards. Well, that, and all staff members here have been granted by Infopop the l33t spidey-sense and we are able to see big neon ing "PIRATED" banners that no one else can see.... I mean, um... yeah... I'm not crazy... It's the men in white coats, I tell you!

If you suspect one, please send the address to [email protected] and the awesome wrath of Brett will be unleashed upon the puny mortal who dared to pir8 Infopop's l33t w4r3z.

And for some odd reason, I've noticed that the recent custom around here has been to close threads like this, so I'm doing that now. Don't blame me, blame the government.
