My suggestion would be that these few sacrifices should be made:

* Free speech (If you downloaded a program and need support for it, you can say that it's an illegal version if it will speed up the helping process).

* No links to warez sites (That will bring a lot of bad 100%-warez hogs here, plus that it's a big danger for the site).

* Light violations are allowed (Posting a serial for an antivirus program, or one for windows who has lost his (trust me, it does happen) should be allowed).

* No major hints (For instance, telling an user that downloading the file from a site of a certain kind is wrong, while a certain file sharing program will work fine is a violation).

* Functionality discussions allowed....

Looks good to me. If someone wants to help with someone with something. I think "Zelaron does not support warez But......." would be a safe way to handle it.

Warez are pathetic! You leech someone else's work and distribute it to others freely! Do you remember those slaves in Rome? Their owners gave them food for their work.
