Windows Keygen Story gone?


Recommended Posts

Why was the front page 'edited' today? I mean there was a story about a certain hack that allowed unathorised users to use W2k03 server. Why was it deleted? I'm just curious. I don't want to start a debate on the topic in question. I just wondered if maybe it turned out to be BS?

Titled Editted

Moved.

In answer to your question the story was removed because of admin decision on what content is to be reported here. The story isn't "bs" though and i don't agree with it being removed but nevermind :)

Isn't it sort of warez related which isn't tolerated by Neowin?

The purpose of the article was simply to report on its existence.

Unfortunately, neowin staff were of divided opinions.

I think if the article did remain, then there will be a few people who will be asking on this forum seeking for the location to download the keygen. Which ends up to be more troublesome.

It was pulled because the story was worded in such a way that allowed dicussion on its existance and how to get it, members also disregarded the repeated requests not to post links or information on the tool. So basically I felt we broke our own rules with the newspost.

It may of been acceptable worded differently with a bit more background and facts to back it up however.

Right before a mod closes the thread, can they post the news story? I'd like to read it (and since the post will be closed, no discussion on it :ninja:)

Show it to everyone, just dont allow discussion on it  :pinch:

I believe discussion can be closed on news items using neowin's custom news system...

To admins or anyone whom can answer this on staff: Am I correct? :unsure:

Even if this was possible, this was not the Only reason why it was taken down. Check Neobond's post.
