Interestingly there has been slight change (or reinterpretation) of the amiga.org posting guidelines. Apparently unless if Hyperion takes action the threads and links will stay. I have no clue of OS4 is some way special case, you'll need to ask the moderators.
Direct links to warez have gone unchecked lately, so I guess I should take that as an indication of the new policies.
Wayne could clarify further, but here is my take on the current moderation policy concerning piracy.
Previously no discussion whatsoever was allowed. However this was viewed as overbearing and draconian, plus US copyright laws have become more lenient concerning so called abandonware. The new policy still enforces concerning direct promotion of viable/recently supported software and leaves other areas a little more slack.
Is there any genuine concern that it is unethical to allow this discussion?
Seriously, let me know and I will forward to Wayne. Also I have not seen any direct links to warez, if you see such a thing feel free to PM a moderator.
