Guess who pirated HL2....

Since I've been away from the forums for TWO WHOLE HOURS, this is probably old news by now. But since I know how much you guys just love seing the same stuff posted over and over again, I'll post this anyway.

For those of you who are too lazy to click links, here's what it says:

Recently, one of the HL2Files.com members here, alerted me of a pirated warez version of Half-Life 2, apparently released via the Bittorent network. I immediately, forwarded this to Gabe Newell of VALVe Software. [The great man, we should all be thanking for Half-Life 2 ].

A couple of hours later, Gabe replied with the following:


Quote:
We're running a bit of an experiment. We're keeping track of the accounts that do this and will be shutting them off.

So, as you can see, VALVe Software have released a test "warez" version aimed at catching people out. These people will have their accounts deleted and will be banned from Steam.

Therefore, I strongly suggest that you DO NOT participate in these illegal activities as it would only lead to your own harm.

VALVe Software spent over $40 Million to develop Half-Life 2. Show them you appreciate their work. Buy the game!

As the saying goes: BURN YOU WAREZ MONKEYS!

Spread the word!

Happy Gaming,
