We do not condone people stealing or defrauding cable companies and we will do our utmost to be a law abiding site and if that means closing the cable sections then that is what will happen.

We have not closed the sections because we think its illegal or we host anything illegal it is because we have always thought of our forums as educational and for that purpose only and because the site is so large that I personally do not know of every file or post that resides on our servers so we will be checking this before the sections come back (if they come back).

Digital World was created for the discussion of various technical topics and was not solely created for the discussion of cable and WAS NEVER CREATED for the use of illegal software materials including guides which I have no knowledge of.

Anyone also found to be using digital world for any illegal services or purposes will be removed without. notice.

Well it seems that the dvb section on Digital World (which is very much like cable on pc here) won't let anyone post! It's still open ATM to read posts but that's it.
