However, the issue with Joymax is not posession of the files. In the United States, I could walk up to Joymax office in California, and tell them I have server files. They couldn't sue me or arrest me. I'm a free man. I didn't hack Joymax.
If I open a server for private use that does not allow "donations" or Silk to be purchased, then Joymax COULD file charges against me for using their copyrighted material. However, if I had the time and money for a lawyer, it would get thrown out of court since:
A.) I did not perform any illegal actions in obtaining the files.
B.) I did not use the files for a profit.
C.) Silkroad is technically a free game, so the revenue loss is a guess AT BEST.
No lawyer could prove that I was a result in lost profit from Joymax, UNLESS I SELL SILK. That's where private servers are going wrong. If you host a COMPLETELY free private server (free silk, etc) then you should be okay. If Joymax DOES sue you, then you must fight it in court. You also have to remember, private servers are most likely against the ToS set by Joymax. But if I do not accept the ToS, then they have nothing that will uphold in court.
There are a LOT of grey areas in American law, and some of it also depends on the judge. Most business cases such as this come down to statistics, copyrights, revenue loss and damages, etc.
Glad to see I am not the only one here with brain, you are absolutely right, also adding that if you do not use any image or reference to silkroad or SRO all the sue to goldsold.pl would be done. They just could sue for copyright stuff which you can easily avoid by making clear you are not a silkroad official server and so and for theft or trade of illegal content
Again, what's at stake is not the files. Joymax would get nothing from me if I had the files. But if I CHARGE people, then I will get sued.
This is why I want to get the server files. I live in the United States of America. I have rights as a citizen. Some other countries do not have the same rights. We have a judicial court system here that allows us a fair trial. I know my rights, and I know the law.
I already have a good job. I'm a manager. I don't need money from a game. I want to host a completely free SRO private server (free silk, free account) on our hosting hardware in Dallas. I used to use it for Counter-Strike, but nobody plays anymore, so I want to use it for SRO

No. I make very good money at my manager position for a US mobile provider. I have a house completely paid off, etc. Money is not an issue for me. I'm not a teenager.

That doesn't even make sense. How is it suicidal? I know my rights and I know the law. I could not be prosecuted for hosting a completely free game, if done right.
the true here is
they wont release them or give to someone cuz they will lose alot of money if they did
also if you just worry about jail.etc
give me the files and i will open it in egypt
iam not going to jail(joymax cant do any **** with me)
iam going make everyone dream
(iam sure you wont give me but atleast i tried)
