Lemme get this straight: You believe that by sending someone else the old files the EQEmu team will miraculously discover you've done so and thus ban your server from being usable??
What you do is your own choice, and all concequences are thus placed on your forehead - if you don't tell anyone they won't know - but the EQEmu community (especially the developers) will not in any way help or even endorse the action, as it's illegal. I can only think that you're arguing because you misunderstood what they actually mean by banning.
If you ask for any EQ files in IRC or on these forums, you will be banned from the forums, from IRC and probably from the main EQEmu login server - that does NOT mean you'll be stopped from running your own server, sending your friends these files or anything else of the sort. Therefore, stop arguing and stop trying to be a smartass with your numerous shells and bounced IRC connections.
