they would do it and they have in the past for real...... why would you risk getting in major trouble with someone like microsoft until you know it is official..... i say wait it out mighty and we will all be here by your side when you feel comfortable doing again.... everyone has to think of what mike could be thinking on this to and not what you think because you want to flash the rom that he has made..... think of others first and their well being guys especially with this being the holiday season... you got my support and anything i can do for you just ask brudda and consider it DONE.|

Re: MightyRom Website Down, Temp File Server

Not speaking on official word or anything, but takedown notices unfortunately have to addressed in a "act now, ask questions later" fashion.

I personally believe its a fake, but you always have to take precautions when dealing with these matters. If its fake, the person can be sued for impersonation and other legal BS.

Re: MightyRom Website Down, Temp File Server

Totally fake, WHOIS that domain name and it smells fishy.

Next thing you know they want you to send some money to a bank account in Nigeria.

Re: MightyRom Website Down, Temp File Server

Just don't screw with other people's stuff. It IS against the law for you to distribute something that someone has created and asked you not to distribute. Hence takedown notices... Even if the creation is not copyrighted/trademarked, it can still be proven to be his creation and it is the creator's right to dictate distribution. This applies to many things. Mike has distribution requirements on his creations and if they are not followed, that is infringement on his distribution requirements. He shouldn't have to go get his work copyrighted to stop idiots on this forum.

Just don't do it. If you do, you will most likely just get warned, and then banned if you continued.

That's kind of ironic, seeing as how you're arguing on a site that's pretty much dedicated to screwing with and re-hosting Microsoft's "stuff"

Wrong.

Especially wrong in this case, seeing how 99% of the stuff this "someone has created" was actually created by Microsoft

They might be able prove it's their creation, but they can't do anything about it, not legally. That's part of the whole reason copyrights and trademarks exist, so they CAN do something about it

Re: MightyRom Website Down, Temp File Server

you guys amaze me about this controlling who downloads what from where, who are u guys? at&t? we all know im just trying to help people who may have gotten TP2 for christmas or new tp2 replacements somewhere to download the best rom on the planet, i take no part in claiming this as my own work, i have yet to recieve a msg from mighty, he knows nothing about me sharing it, or if he does he doesnt wanna comment IDK. if he is truely just wanting the totals of downloads and such www.adrive.com keeps the tally and i can relay it to him after his site is back up. personally, i think he is probably cool enough to understand his community coming together to keep his stuff circulating. bite me. im reposting links.

Re: MightyRom Website Down, Temp File Server

Wow. In all this arguing that has gone on about whether it can re-hosted without permission or not legally, has anyone ever though of what would happen if Mighty was pissed off about this? He might....stop distributing his ROM at all...since people won't follow his wishes.

As far as this thread is concerned, the official stance is

"Mighty has no official mirrors or such and doesn't know of the existence of any of them"

See yall later, PM me with any questions as I don't plan of checking this thread...

That's part of what I said. We have had this problem on XDA with AC as well. He took all his work away twice (once 'cause of GPL issues and once because of idiots stealing his work).
