According to the rule, the exemption is: Asking for a certain game file due to technical issues.I have no qualms with the 1 week ban rule when people are obviously asking for a link to a game, but I personally think the ban above me shouldn't be a thing. The guy didn't ask for a game and still somehow got banned.

Personally, I have no issue with the requesting of a file to unlock the additional content. That is just my personal opinion though and not my reason for speaking up. My reason for speaking up is solely because that banned user didn't specifically ask for a game download or a link to a game download. I may be missing something here, but none of the rules state that what he did justified a ban.According to the rule, the exemption is: Asking for a certain game file due to technical issues.
He asked extra part of the game (the game can still be run without the passfile), and I don't think that he will use it for any technical issues.
In other words, do you think that asking DLC of a game is still OK?
I often get told that my good intentions often get twisted when being conveyed through text, so I'd like to point out that I am in no way attempting to cause any sort of trouble. I simply wanted to point out something I thought was wrong. Thank you for hearing my opinion though.Basically, as @TonySin said, the passfile isn't something you are trying to replace to fix an issue. It's certainly not a savefile either. But your opinion is noted.
I see the point.Personally, I have no issue with the requesting of a file to unlock the additional content. That is just my personal opinion though and not my reason for speaking up.

That is definitely true. His ban probably saved us from potentially being spammed with requests for said file.I see the point.
He didn't ask for the file directly.
However, if he said such thing, willing for a ONLY "Yes" or "No" answer with no following action, he just want to spam this thread then.
The file itself isn't DLC though. The file is way too small to contain anything other than a key to unlock the content that's already in the game when you get it. I do get where you're coming from though.The extra content is technically DLC and I suppose it's technically against the rules to ask for it. Sure, you might say that it was time-limited content for his patrons, but it should eventually be released when the full game is done and gets sold. And since Tozicode occasionally released the full game for free periodically, the DLC is technically the only paid-for content for this game.
You are right, it isn't a DLC. It should be an expansion pack. Using MHW:I as an example, it is already (partly) installed and MHW can still be run even you haven't bought the pack. Otherwise, the one with MHW:I equipment joining MHW user's room will crush the room, as he contains unknown equipment.The file itself isn't DLC though.

Now that I got that out, I have a question. Is there actually a 2018nov pass file? I supported the dev for quite a while and totally missed that one if there is such a thing.
Thanks for the info, Buddy. I'll probably support him again some time in the near future to get the one that I missed like an idiot.You are right, it isn't a DLC. It should be an expansion pack.

Yes. And there are totally 3 pass-files. They are in: Nov 2018 (ver. 0.11), Feb 2019 (ver. 0.14), and Apr 2019 (ver. 0.16).
As I see in dev's fantia, the pass-files are separated from the game to download.

Oh, I'm well aware of that. It was jokingly called "Disc Locked Content" because of that underhanded tactic.Still sticking to what I said about it being DLC. I bet a lot of you aren't familiar with how DLC was handled back in the day, were commercially released games had the data already on the disc, and the "DLC" was just a small unlock file that allowed you to access that part of the disc.
Yes, that was a thing. A dirty, underhanded thing devs did back in the day where they took content out of a game and made you pay for it later to unlock it, and they labeled it as DLC.
Shit, dropped my keys.
