    https://kickass.to/beamng-car-mods-39-latest-vehicle-mods-t9519866.html

    Somebody on this forum has downloaded car mods off of this website and just uploaded it to Kickass.to. :mad:

    I'm a KAT regular and I owned this game (since it's release) and when I saw this.. it pissed me off.

    EDIT: I asked the owner of Kickass.to if he could remove it.. Now we play the waiting game. :(

    I think we do but I could be wrong...I am unsure yet of who could do this turn against this forum and do such an evil thing!

    Novosel is the same guy that was making videos with links of reupload. I had a talk to him time ago and he put all the videos down. Perhaps that's some of the reupload he haven't took down (can't check the date of that torrent since kat is blocked in italy).

    Edit
    I managed to check that and the content. It was uploaded today.
    I have him on Steam, so he will hear from me for sure. He should be banned if there was a way to find his username on the forum.


    Edit didn't work :/


    As far there is only 1 seeder (him presumably), it's OK, but if this start spreading there won't be much to do to stop it.

    You should of played the nice card and asked for his BeamNG forum name because "you liked his videos" but mmmm...

    EDIT: Just saw that you commented on his profile and haven't talked to him yet (has been offline for 2 days now)

    Still puzzling who would do this...I think...we need to take a closer look at this I know KAT is blocked here in the UK so I cannot do much I think our American side of the Forum needs to get in on this...and help us out because KAT over there isnt blocked..

    Apparently the Torrent works, so shit.
    I'm not much upset, because I'm updating my mods anyway to much better version, and 95% of those are mods coming from 'those' sites.
    Move on.

    Edit-
    KAT says that user is online too, just as the guy on FB.

    Edit2-
    The user now deleted itself.

    Edit3-
    Torrent is kinda down. Only 1 seeder, so it will be hard to share that.

    Beat me to it. KpPDS5Q.png

    EDIT: I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that Novosel0405 created that account. :/

    EDIT 2: MrNovosel0405 is a pretty bad liar. Didn't have to search that far to see this: QtyS1NS.png
    Had to block quite a bit of personal info. The gist of it is there.

    That video doesn't exist. He posted that before I convinced him to take them down. None of them exist anymore.
    Anyway he says he doesn't remember the Login details of his accounts here, and that it doesn't have the same nick (that's why you can't find him by Novosel).

    He did remove most of the videos, but his YouTube still has a download for Drowsy's catapult on mediafire.

    Is this all the mods in one file? That's a pretty good idea, though..

    Anyway, who downloads torrents these days? It's probably the best way to get a trojan.

    A LOT of people do. I can say that if you don't download free-creditcards-money-bitches.torrent, with a few seeders, it usually isn't a virus. If you download them without thinking, and you don't do research on it, yeah, you will get some viruses.

    Also remember, torrenting is just a file sharing protocol (P2P), and it is just what you torrent is what's illegal.

    <IMO>People use torrenting for all this illegal pirating stuff as opposed to normal downloading because it relieves stress on a server. It also can potentially make these large files download faster. </IMO>

    Is there a way to find his IP so we can do a IP ban?

    Yes, there are options like that and I know how to moderate forums and I know how to ban people, there are options in the moderator controls to ban people via username, or via IP address ranges and IP bans are sometimes used to stop people and then there is the less used IP Range bans, but that is VERY rarely used because you could knock out other people, from the forums by accident...


    I hope that answers your question...

    I bet this fuck-face uses a secondary account that he hasn't ever posted once on.

    That would be likely but IF the admins tracked that down all they would have to do is an IP block and thats that account and ALL the others that person uses nuked!

    Yeah, I know. Torrents are a pretty good way to download stuff. I always use torrent whenever possible for files I know the source from (and that I can verify with hashes). Like LibreOffice and such.
    I was wondering about those file collections and such. Which are a pretty good idea, IMO - especially due to said benefits (less server load, faster download). But you never know what's in there.
