Hello,
I got confused about Rules #4 :
4. Do not give links to people asking for abandonware/warez
My English not very good you know... But how you can be sure if someone is member this forum asking about the games he was looking for ? Thanks for the explanations

If a game is freeware/shareware/demo, the game's README file or the game itself usually tells you.
Also abandonware/warez is relatively hard to find (i.e.: if you want abware/warez, you need to put the effort into searching for it).
Yes there are plenty of sites that do offer abware, however they are usually not found by accident, you normally have to TRY to find abware.
As well, most of the time, if a site offers abware, most or all of its downloads are abware, among normal gaming sites like DOSGAMES.COM abware is hard or impossible to find.

ah okay,
so what you mean is... it is possible if I share the abware d/l link at this forum with "completly" free and the abware was not still sold on the Internet. Is that right ?
Oh btw, if my topic is out of the line... Tell me please, I appreciate that. Thanks
