In short, we shows an attitude of "We don't give a shit" (as long as it is legal for us to stay that way) to any entity, legal or individual, especially those who sent several DMCA and try to take us down. Or other larger communities, such as hongfire, who actually picked on us several months ago before they were pulled down, claiming that there's too many people on their forum linking to us, and demand us to ban member on our site or delete the thread on our forum, which we ignored completely in the end.
AS was born not to be another epenis site by its creator unlike all other forum, we allows mentions of other sites, links under signature to one's blog/other sites/forum (as long as they don't contain malware, excessive ads, any fishing scamming/make quick money scheme or contents that prohibited on AS, such as western warez, western movies and real life porn) to protect our member and our network from getting into legal trouble with the U.S Corporation who pretty much bought all the U.S Government to create such mess.
Just try to explaining how it works around here ;) See you around then.
