Yes, much like the Best Motoring thread this one too has been recycled. GTPlanet.net has a very strict and severe policy when it comes to discussing piracy. That thread had so many violations it wasn't funny.

And again, like the Best Motoring thread, it'll stay gone.

End of story.

Yes, how will people inform new things about Initial D? Going on another forum than GTP ?! (You can close the thread if you want)
 
You are more than welcome to talk about Initial D, but it is illegal to post links to these pirated video downloads.
 
The files were being copied without the copyright owner's permission. GTPlanet could be held liable in court for aiding in the distribution of the files.
 
fair enough, sorry to put you at risk.
 
You do know that it is totally legal to download TV shows that are not aired on the US TV Market. Also is the MPAA going to go after everyone that owns a Tivo, DVR, PVR, or VCR? You have to ask yourself can you get Initial D Stage 4 Episodes through US TV Pay-per-Views? You can not buy Initail D Stage 4 DVD Sets at any major retail outlets, you have to go to some mom/pop retail outlet to special order them from Japan, but I do understand that you have to protect yourself from the RIAA, and MPAA.

I think it would have been more fair to just delete the posts. There was alot of good discussion going on in that thread. Everyone shouldn't have to pay for someone's forgetfulness of the board rules. frestkd also gives very valid points.
 
The Ernster
Can you suggest otherways to get english subtitled Stage 4 episodes?
No, and I won't because GTPlanet does not condone or assist with piracy. See Jordan's post above.

The legality of downloading or purchasing them is irrelevant. That thread was using GTplanet as a way to provide links to pirated content. I, or Jordan, don't particularly care what you download or special order or pirate. We do care when you use GTP to distribute it or discuss it.

That is the issue addressed by Jordan, the Acceptable Use Policy, and Terms of Service here at GTPlanet.

It's your choice to abide by those, it's our decision if you do not.

Hmm then you might want to delete eveything on PS2 Modchips, Hard Drive Copy Programs, and any and all forms of piracy.

Some of those do have legal and legitimate purpose. We catch them as we see them and move on from there. We're not 100%, as this is a large community and we're only human.

You are responding as if this was a discussion. It isn't. Go back and re-read the TOS and Acceptable Use Policy to understand Jordan's and GTP's policy on Piracy.

All of this bitterness really doesn't suprise me, but it does dissapoint me. I honestly couldn't care less what you download, and I'm not trying to directly enforce any type of laws, or anything like that. I'm not even saying "don't download this/that". What I am trying to do is protect myself from legal trouble, and to keep from getting suspended by the advertisers who help me pay for this place. I really wish you guys would understand that.
 
Jordon I understand, you're running a business with this website, first it was a hobby for you but now that it's being so popular it turn itself into a business. You don't want to risk getting sued, or shutdown by the MPAA/RIAA or some Federal Government Agency.

No, it's not totally legal to download shows that are not aired on the US market. Where did you get that idea? Just because something is not for sale in your area does not mean it is legal to steal it.

It is legal to record broadcast music or shows for your own use (Tivo, VCR, etc). However, it is illegal to distribute that broadcast in any way, even if you are giving it away. It's even illegal to show it to a large group of people at once, as in a theatre.

Even saying you take full responsibility and "this has nothing to do with GTPlanet", it is still piracy and it will not be tolerated. -GTP staff
 
The thread in question was deleted before you even registered, what the hell are you talking about?

If you want Initial D episodes so badly, look for them.

Maybe if he had the ability to type proper English I would've understood it.

You should try that too.
