[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 13222, member: 175057"] Two reasons why I found the Kevlar questions tedious Pixey, the first being that the information was invariably available in several other threads on the same page and the people couldn't be bothered to read the other posts, they just pursue their selfish goal with tunnel vision. The second was that a huge number of the questioners had no interest in the hobby whatsoever, would not contribute to the foum and in many cases required the information purely to upgrade cards which they would then sell to their mates at work or in the pub. This type of activity was rife with On/ITV Digital and only served to increase the pressure on sites like this from the authorities. The same thing would be likely to happen if a hack for Sky Digital ever materialised, there are over 5 million potential "hobbyists" to flood the boards. The seca II issue is of course valid, but my first point still applies to a degree. The difference is that European satellite viewing is not as common in the UK as Terrestrial Digital and the cards are less likely to be sold down the pub (although it does go on). There are a large number of people with equipment capable of receiving European satellite, but a larger percentage are doing it for the hobby, rather than purely free TV. [/QUOTE]
