What messages should be posted to alt.new.cracks?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please post only:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

01. On-topic binary attachments, i.e., cracks.
02. One filename and one file per subject header.
03. (Optional) begin the subject with "abc:" to allow filtering.
04. Prefix requests with REQ: only.
05. Brief discussion dealing specifically with cracking topics (see below).
06. Posting of a FAQ and similarly helpful posts at reasonable intervals.
All other files should be posted elsewhere but "pointer messages" telling
others where to look are welcome.

Please do not post:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~
A. Advertisements of any sort.
B. URLs to warez websites.
C. Crossposts to any groups other than alt.cracks (text only)
D. In any language other than English. Most of the crackers and posters can
speak more than one language but you cannot count on help in other tongues.
E. "What's the best?" questions.
F. "ME TOO" replies.
G. Un-compressed binaries, including cracks.
I. Warez signup list replies. There is no list.
J. Test messages. Please use alt.test and alt.binaries.test

All cracks should be for x86 CPUs.
Macintosh cracks are found in alt.binaries.mac.applications
PalmOS cracks are found in alt.binaries.warez.palmpilot
CRC checks prior to posting are advisable. CFA Test is recommended.
Please use 5000 lines or less per segment for multiple part messages.
Most cracks are small, if the file is larger than 100 kB, please check
it before posting to make certain that it is a crack.
Please use UUE instead of yEnc. Cracks are small and the savings of yEnc are
not worth the confusion of downloaders.
