Warez Forums

So this is probably borderline against the rules... But I'm interested in some Warez Forums. Not from the content, as it virus-filled crap, but because their tech support area are so damn funny! PM links so as not to break rules. And don't discuss warez, just their hysterical "help" area.

My favorite request was help was someone who was using a virus-filled version of pirated windows. He wanted to know if his RAM had a virus because after several re-installs, he still had a ton of viruses. The best part were the 50 people asking for that virus-covered version of windows, lulz.

Something I've always wondered is the pronunciation of "Warez".... is it Warez as in "Wares" (plural "ware") like Software and Hardware, or is it warez as in "War-ez" (Juarez?)...

Read the very end.

Enough said, Stop using a custom OS, stick to the default.

Or are you trying to point out that him having a RAM virus is retarded? Because anyone who isn't also retarded already knew that. Your final sentence seems to suggest you knew this as well, which makes the linking even more unnecessary.

What the hell was the point? It's not like Mooga's eying up slipstreamed copies of Windows even as we speak. He's making fun of someone.

Also, it's not war-ez. It's 'warez.
