Isn't there something a little strange about the fact that we feel the need to disclaim our statements in this manner? That's not a criticism of Pavan, merely an observation that there shouldn't be any reason to fear overzealous moderation, right?

First, I assumed that SgtMillhouse owned a legitimate copy of XP so this would be legal, but I have no way of knowing therefore it could potentially breaking the rules.

Second:
Just to be sure I asked a moderator on AIM about my post and provided my evidence and he said it was a legal post. I got flamed once on CD when I first joined for posting a loophole and I asked a mod why my post got deleted and didn't receive a clear response, so to prevent that from happening again I went to the rules and made sure as well as asked an official.

That is my reasoning for that little disclaimer.
