Quite sure publishing the NDA is a break on the NDA itself for the person whom has given it to you

Huh? It's available to view to the public as the OP demonstrates by putting a public URL link to it.

[Blackwolf]

Yeah I don't quite get how or why posting the NDA would be a breach of the NDA? Care to explain that?

[Maniox]

It usually works that way, so I were surprised it was public

[Trafalgar]

He can't breach something he hasn't signed.

NDA's are pretty standard.....

I haven't bothered reading one in quite some time cause it's all the same...

"If we haven't specifically mentioned or posted about something officially, ie; unless the information is available BY US to the PUBLIC then you can't talk about it."

If you can't link to an official source... then it's off limits.

Not to mention the catch-22s that are always there.

rule of thumb:

If you can google search for it... its fine.

If you avoid anything that hasn't been officially announced/covered... you're safe.

Of course this also means not adding any details to anything official that's not specifically covered.

Basically... once you're in... the only place you can talk about the game is in the beta forums, and outside that, you can only talk about what's well known.

You can't even add your speculations anymore as your speculations are biased from internal knowledge.

I've been a member of a alpha & beta testing group that has been employed for numerous games and I've done a fair number of tests....

"Fight clubs" rules pretty much cover it.

First rule of beta is YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT BETA
Second rule of beta is YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT THE FLAMING BETA!!

Not necessarily...

If the results turned up in Google search are themselves NDA violations, then you'd only be perpetuating them.

Only official sources are legitimate.
