l2extreme.com shut down for piracy
Fri, 17 Nov 2006 at 07:37 AM
Word on the internet has it that www.l2extreme.com has been confiscated and shut down by the United States Federal Government on Friday as part of their crackdown on internet piracy.
The site, l2extreme, is a popular online gaming location for the lineage players. NCSoft currently allows individuals to download the Client Software for free to connect to their 'pay to play' MMORPG. Sites, such as l2extreme, have copies of the server code and have long allowed users to play on their unofficial lineage servers for "free"; inapparent direct conflict of interests with Lineage II Online/NCSoft.
How they obtained the server software on a regular schedule is unknown and the ramifications of this move are currently unknown to the general public and the futures of this site and their respective communities are as of yet unknown.
