banned from warez scence

[Agent]

well i got a file from my soruces in IRC that the group that has released the half life source have been banned from the warez scence. well anywayz this is wat the file says.

Hello,
---------------------------------
You all have might seen the "Half Life 2 Source Code" leaked to scene,
wether this is a real source or not get it deleted everywhere.
And that -DLE that pred it should be scenebanned.
If this is the "real" sourcecode then we all are messed since that -DLE
is responsible for a huge spread and the FBI surely will investigate them, and off
course they will rollup any sites they are on.
So help me and get this thing out of scene and sites where it got pred think about your
security and your users. (and about the jail penalty under the DMCA law for this).
---------------------------------
siteops:
site del Half-Life_2_Leaked_Sources-DLe
nukers:
site nuke 1 Half-Life_2_Leaked_Sources-DLe crap
everyone else:
delete Half-Life_2_Leaked_Sources-DLe
---------------------------------
Yours sincerly
IND

lol!

Of course there's rules. And of course you can ban them. the scene consists of suppliers, sites, and so on. How good is your group functioning when you're banned from all the sites you can upload to?

Anyways the release was stolen. They didn't make it. The same as Jagiso, they just take some community spread beta's and release them under their own tag.

Well so if i make a fake release some spotty little cracker comes to my house and tell me to stop? You are talkign about the "deep oldschool scene" and ofcourse there are certain respects and rules of quality around them. But do you realise how many trash groups there are. You cant stop a release from being published everywhere...the server owner decide what stuff he wants on his server not some cyber syndicate...
