Sometimes pictures from pay sites' pay sections can be found by doing a search on Yahoo or Google! Surely the website owners could program their web pages to make a "no subscription" error come up when clicking such a link. Something is wrong when a pay picture link comes up in a search engine search in the first place.

Your comparison does not fit either

If you want to compare the situation with a real world scenario it would look like this: You have locked your house but some of your items are left outside. Now, someone comes and steals the items outside the house.

But he's still guilty of stealing because he knew the items were yours.

But I also think G.O.P. does think different about this. He only stated that webmasters should care about their items and so they should do. I'm sure you are with me on this, aren't you?

Additionally I want to state that Nigel is 100% right with the rules added.

You're missing the point.

If I break into your house and steal everything you own, should I be allowed to escape prosecution because your locks weren't strong enough?

it seems to me that if it is possible to access a supposedly pay to view picture simply by entering the direct URl, the webmaster is not using proper security measures. Simply protecting the menu pages, but not protecting the pictures themselves is very sloppy website design! If this were a military site, congressional inquiries would be taking place for such sloppy security.

PLEASE READ: Cracking and distribution of Southern Charms and other pics.

Recently there have been 2 posts relating to the archived pictures at Southern Charms (SC).

The first was giving details of how to access the archived pictures, which, although they were once free, are now in the 'pay-for' section. Posting of cracking details for ANY website is unacceptable, and illegal.

The second post, from 'spanisjdevil' although at first appears to be a collection of 'saved' copies of SC sets, it is actually linking DIRECTLY to the pictures in the 'paid-for' archive at SC. THis is unacceptable, and ILLEGAL - he is stealing their bandwidth.

The rules of the forum http://forum.minxmovies.com/rules.html have now been ammended, to make it clear that these this sort of behaviour is not acceptable here:

2.5 Do not post information (tricks, cracks or passwords) that allows others to obtain images or media from membership areas of websites.

2.6 Do not post links to websites that use BANDWIDTH STEALING (DIRECT LINKING) to display their images or media from another website.
