Homebrew topics banned from GameFAQs PSP Message Board

Quoted from a post the GameFAQs PSP Message Board

It does you guys no good to have no warning, so I'll tell you.

GameFAQs is about to update its TOS. The new document will be roughly the same as GameSpot's current TOS. The largest and most noticeable change is the inclusion of homebrew under the Illegal Activities rule. That's why all the stickies have gone - even CJayC's, because it is no longer correct.

When the new TOS hits the site, all of the topics on this board (and the DS and Wii boards, as they each have a good homebrew community) that talk about homebrew will be deleted or closed. If they're deleted, you'll probably get an NKL, and contesting it will do no good.

If you want to complain about this change, here is not the place to do it (as it's considered Off-Topic). In fact, complaining about it at all isn't going to help, as this ruling is never going to be rescinded.

If you need information concerning homebrew, there are plenty of other sites out there that can help you. Because linking to those sites will be a violation of the new TOS, I can't link to them for you, but Google is always your friend

It seems again homebrew and piracy have been painted with the same brush by a "Big" site.



Moved to Network News as this implicates all Homebrew Communities, isnt it time the Mainstream didnt put us Homebrewers with the pirates ???

idiots then again like i said in the article i wrote on the Wii site last night. Scene sites or those that are so upthemselves are the reason piracy is sectioned with Homebrew.

Well the good thing is that they will join here maybe

[goity]

Ridiculous. Would this even include things like gp2x/pandora homebrew, where there isn't the faintest shadow of anything remotely illegal or bad and wrong?

[wraggster]

just shows you the mainstream media havent a bloody clue

That's correct. No clue. And those who blindly follow are suckers. They tell them to jump and they ask "how high?"

I'm glad I live against the grain..... FREE!

Makes me appreciate DCEMU even more though.
