This sort of shit has been going on in the warez community for decades. It's why I don't pirate software anymore - even Empress has a strong incentive to sell out.

I know they said the mods were deleting posts about whatever it was but do you have a link to the discussion or proof?

Bare in mind what OP posted was from 4 months ago, but one of the mods mentions it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PiratedGames/comments/14qvyi3/some_controversy_going_on_at_this_sub/

They acknowledge changes were made, so I would take that as confirmation, but that whole group/sub kind of cringey. Posts do get deleted by mods but users also make a lot of claims without any evidence. I get that most of those people don't have a technical background so its hard to find evidence, but that also maybe is a good reason to make a claim.

EDIT: When I wrote my original comment, I used "Apparently" and "Allegedly" synonymously. I understand if anyone wants to call me out on that, but doesn't seem right changing what I wrote (seems like that would be covering).

I'd like to line with the "posts are getting deleted randomly" party. I mean the only thing not being deleted at this point is the memes, the cringe worthy memes. no discussions (unless very basic) or guides are flourishing on that subreddit anymore. and besides why stay on reddit in the first place if it is the reason they must act like this?

The tip toeing around stuff definitely does get tiring but I think some people just flock there because there's a lot of people and Reddit still dominates search results

I mean why didn't the mods migrate the sub here? like dbzer0 did here.

There could be a few reasons beyond what I already mentioned. A lot of people thought the blackout on Reddit was a trend or unnecessary and that wasn't helped when Reddit forced a lot of subs to reopen.

I'm not sure though. I wonder if they have a post addressing it

Keyloggers? On an internet forum? What for?

For logging keys, usually

In 2023, 'cuck' is seemingly the greatest insult you can apply to a person.

Followed only by 'poopyhead'.

Outside of a kink context, its use is a pretty great indicator that the person using it is a hateful moron who thinks they're"winning" if someone is "triggered." Basically the online equivalent of a pair of truck nuts.

In that respect, I'm grateful for its prevalence as it saves me a lot of time/energy that would otherwise be spent dealing with assholes.

I'm out of the loop here, what's this about?

Empress is considered the best Denuvo cracker in the world. Mostly because she's the only one that is consistently successful.

There are two major trains of thought regarding her. The first: she's a batshit crazy narcissist who is more toxic than a Kardashian-Jenner family dinner where Kanye and Pete Davidson show up unannounced. The second: she's the goddess and the most wonderful woman on the planet and one day she'll recognize my loyalty and I will have a place in her New World Order.

She's also definitely Russian, and we, Russians, believe that it's a guy.

There's no women on the Internet.
