    i would like to contest my infraction

    i received a infraction from "Oldsoldier2003", i feel a warning is sufficient. i beleave i am responsible for any terms of use for any software in my possession, it is not the forums place to enforce terms from software companies. there is no place in the eula that says anything about the use of the key for the software in question.
    i would have removed it myself had i been told it was not aloud.

    thank you for your time.

    Re: i would like to contest my infraction

    The jailing of your post and the issue of an infraction was appropriate.

    Your action is illegal and against the Forum code of conduct. I suggest you re read the the Forum rules here http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php?page=policy

    Please do not post product keys on this site again.

    why is it illegal, it's not covered in the products terms of use, it's not software, it's not programs.

    now that i know you can't do it, i won't. but a infraction, a warning i can understand.

    there is no law that covers the posting of a key, if there is point me to it.

    i guess that's that. i will no longer help anyone in these forums till i have a clean slate and all infractions are removed.

    i really am disappointed that the mod's don't even give the common courtesy of a warning for any unintentional slip up's. i guess it just doesn't pay to be polite in this day and age.
