Like WILLYUMZ, sebbbi, sipe, and myself have said, We don't want people to post unofficial details from a prerelease build of Trials Evolution, let other people purchase the game and see what's in it when it has been released. The Redlynx Forum is not the place to talk about Warez or Copyright infringing material. This has been the case since BEFORE Evolution was announced, but now people say it's just about Redlynx clamping down because of Evo. That isn't the case.
Treads or Posts that link or talk about videos of Unofficial Releases of ANY game will be removed. There may have been some heavy handed Moderation over the weekend, but the way I understand it, a topic was deleted for having links to videos that people have been specifically asked not to post.
The Mods give up their free time to handle things. They do their best to follow the guidelines and precedents set in the Rules and posts made by Forum Admin. If you have a problem with them don't post a thread calling them out, or calling them names, that's considered flaming and is against the rules. Instead, send me a PM where you put down exactly why you think their moderation was lacking, or their methods unjust, and I will try to get back to you about it.
Thanks guys.
