Do You Know Why We Remove Links To Ebooks & Ready Made Projects?

CrazyEngineers Forum has become one of the top resource for engineers and engineering students to find information about their daily needs. With our growing popularity, it's common for our forums to attract spammers and the non-engineers who seek ready made stuff. Lot of students come to us looking for ready-made projects. However, we make sure that we do not spoon feed anyone and do not provide them anything ready-made. We expect our members to work on projects/seminars on their own; because we want them to become better engineers.

#-Link-Snipped-#Every day someone posts links to ebook versions of popular books. We remove it as soon as we find it. Lot of members complain about it but we don't listen. What wrong is wrong. We don't want to be a medium through which piracy gets promoted. We don't want to be a medium that lets users find someone else's work for free, which otherwise, is available for some cost.

We trust our own conscience.
