[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Achronos Legally authorized (assuming no intent to pirate), but no, you shouldn't be discussing that here. Sorry, but that is just a minefield we'd prefer to stay away from. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Reykjavik I think the problem with the rule is that the intent is to ban discussion about modifications that are not approved of by the hardware/software company. The rule says that it bans discussion of unauthorized modification. I am authorized to jailbreak an ipad, but Apple does not approve. Would I be allowed to discuss that topic on this website? Should I be allowed to? Under the current rules, it would seem like I do have the authority to talk about it on Bnet, because in the rules it specifies that discussion of unauthorized modifications are against the rules. If the rule actually were to allow discussion of authorized mods, that would be great. However, if you only want to allow approved mods, then that should be made clear (and I won't like it very much). [/quote][/quote]OK, you want to avoid that minefield. Then make it clear in the rules. Simply writing [quote]- Do not discuss modification of console game hardware or software, even if you're not trying to cheat or pirate (except for modifications specifically approved by the manufacturere).[/quote] would avoid the problem entirely. I want to broaden our discussion topics as much as possible, so I would prefer it to say discussions of unauthorized mods are banned, and mean it. But if you don't want to do that, then at least make it clear in the rules.
