Also saying this for sometime now.
Maybe not a test but atleast a big message that there aren't any download here.

I think that the idea is kinda off the target... Why? Because no one ever takes the time to register on a forum that asks a lot of questions before registrering. I sure as hell wouldn't.
And if that would happen what would the mods do? Who would they ban? 
Behold his GLORY! Bow for the technical master!

the stickies aren't enough of a message? Just lock new comers into the FAQ / newbie welcome thread and only let them out when they've posted.

Exactly what has been suggested numerous times in the past by a lot of members including mods, but the admins NEVER answered, so don't bother with that. Apparently page impressions are more important to the admins than dealing with the requesting problem. The games section is pretty much unreadable and useless again, same as last year. A hint or disclaimer on the front page would help, but i tell you it will never happen.

We can not put a big flashing chunk of letters on the main page just because of that. Thats like McDonald's putting up a "We sell poisenous meat!" (phun intended) next to their sign. It would just look awfull and destroy the whole layout of our webpage.
Not to mention that people would certainly get pissed because it's obscuring the list-outs and making them unfunctional, or better yet, hard to look at. Most would just get annoyed at having that sign constantly in their face, i know i would. Even if we would somehow decide and would put it up, it's still not guaraanteed to stop all the idiots from asking. We already tried something like that with board registrations a while back. What do you think the outcome was? Thats right, it didnt help. So you see, just because we havent put anything up by now doesnt mean that we havent tried it before or thorougly thought about it.
And for the record, yes we did answer this same question numerous times already, privatley and publicly. People just tend to forget it.

Also I might add... I don't have any problems helping people copy cracks as such. And Ive stopped posting to requesters instead just using the report button (which i dont think has any attention paid to).
