    Hello Rendy,

    Short answer: No. Warez forums do not fit the vBSEO Acceptable Use Policy, nor do those with pornography.

    To quote the AUP:

    * Illegal hacking/cracking content
    * Promotion or facilitation of piracy of intellectual property including software, digital audio, and/or video, etc.
    * Illicit drugs and drug paraphernalia
    * Illegal sales or promotion of weapons or ammunition (e.g., firearms, fighting knives, stun guns)
    * Illegal sales or promotion of tobacco or tobacco-related products
    * Illegal sales or promotion of prescription drugs
    * Illegal sales or promotion of products that are replicas or imitations of designer goods
    * Any other content that is illegal, promotes illegal activity, or infringes on the legal rights of others
    * Excessive profanity

    Also, given that Jelsoft (vbulletin.com) do not allow vBulletin sites to contain Warez, the vBulletin licence of any site containing Warez would be in violation of THEIR policies, and would be revoked if discovered.

    If you see any sites that you suspect of Piracy or any vBulletin forums promoting illegal activity, report them using www.vbulletin.com/piracy .

    Where is it mentioned ??

    vBulletin® - License Agreement

    There are 1000's of such licensed boards, which use vb & just link to warez material & never host or in some case do host. But there are not subjected to violation or anything as per agreement.

    vBulletin® - Links , just check their dir , there are many mp3 boards even listed there !
