I was wondering in my page the word crack hack is included in the title, but I dont have like real hacks and cracks for software.
When I use crack and hacks i mean a hack improvement to a software, like you can get hacks for a phpbb board to have a quick reply suff like that.
I hope you guys know what I mean :)

Well, the TOS is quite clear:-

Site may not include:
Hacking/cracking content

If you think that your site is in compliance with the TOS it may be an idea to double check with Google, and get some confirmation from them that it is.

I looked at your site, via profile, looking for a phpbb board "hack" that would allow visitors to start photo galleries. Stop calling what you are offering 'hacks' or 'cracks'.

Call it add-on scripts or something. Are they really hacks and cracks or just tips and tricks? It looks like you are offering tips and tricks, not hacks and cracks. I could be mistaken though, I couldn't find what I wanted on your site right away, so didn't stay very long.

lol thanks for chekcing my site, well they are more tweaks, but the reason why i put hacks and cracks on my title is because people search for those keywords when they looking for addons to a program call paltalk :) they dont use tweaks, I just curius to know if having the keyword in a title is not aloud :)

I would stay away from the word "cracks", because that sounds worse (to my ear) than "hacks" and seems to have no relation whatsoever to what you're offering.

Besides, you run the risk that Google will simply accept that your site is about what you say it's about, and ban you.
