ANNOUNCEMENT A quick note about illegal streaming channels/sites/links

[Ian]

The VPN thing with Paramount is an issue. A lot of people getting 406 errors.

Signing up for NFL+ for a month is definitely a good way to go. Use that every year for preseason, and it's been great.

Only $15. I hate to give them credit, but it’s damn good value for watching every preseason game. Feels like they would normally charge more.

Can we ask for 1 to be DM'ed? I am travelling this Sept for a couple weeks and will miss 1 game. Last time I asked for it via DM.

I pay for DAZN (Sunday ticket in Canada) which made me feel entitled to a free stream in Europe

We can't condone anything being posted on the main forum, and we also don't encourage DMs about it. However, with that in mind, as I told @borisman , both myself and moderators don't have access to DMs.

I would go further: 30 day ban for the first offense and a perm ban for the 2nd.

I would pin the thread at the top, so it's visible all the time, and then change it to the above (maybe 14 days for 1st offense).

 

[Huckleberry1]

I am so glad I am technologically incompetent.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

In all seriousness, the last thing Ian or any of us need is to be hassled about stupid things, just don't do it!

There will be some people who didn't see this thread initially, and I'm not going to penalize people for that. But doing it again would be an issue. So as long as people at least try and help me out on this, that's really all I'm asking.

the warning you posted in the op of this thread?

Pin the warning in the OP to the top of this forum. Hell every forum. And could even DM it to every user... you know, play the CYA game... Plausible deniability... No one can say they didn't get notice, and if there is a kerfluffle you can point out the steps you have taken to prevent the sharing of illicit streams on the site...

It would really help stop people doing stupid **** like posting things such as ↦ 2025 NFL Streams 5kHD ↤

[Thelonious]

Absolutely 100% fair. If anything, the sequence of penalties is too kind. There is no way, given your very generous efforts on behalf of this site, you should be subjected to this stress.

Here's my question: I sat down last night in front of the television, dialed up YouTube, and there it was, streaming live, with ads and everything. That has to be a legit, approved thing, right? I don't have any privileges on YouTube that any other person wouldn't get. So why didn't everybody just watch it there?

 

[DaBruinz]

I know people ask every game, every year about the streams. I'm going to be honest. They are very easy to find with a google search..

Don't post the links here.. That's all there is too it.

I would never do this but it amuses me that I could!

My wife uses similar language when she's mad at me. Albeit she uses another adjective other than "poopy."

I’d be glad to share several of the DMCA notices I’ve gotten if anyone’s curious. At a previous time in my life I didn’t give 2 shts about what I downloaded and mainly grabbed movies and a bit of software. Shrugged off the first few notices then one day woke up to having my internet more or less shut off via captive portal. Took a few calls to Spectrum to get it sorted along with having to say the right things to them. Never would’ve thought it was an old game downloaded that was the straw that broke the camels back. All that said, it’s just not worth it. This is one of the nicer if not nicest places I enjoy online these days so let’s not ruin it.

I don't even know. Wife cares about the streaming. I just clicked on the same YouTube icon where my regular podcasts and subcriptions are, and there it was.
