Do you see games of different versions being hosted?

While I tend to agree, the owners of this site are wise not to endorse illegal activities for obvious reasons. The fact of the matter is that this site doesn't even need to host full copies of any version of the game in order for people to find it on their own. This should be common knowledge.
As for the split in the community, I'm not very active on JJ2 obviously but the TSF-based community and the 1.23-based communities are almost already separate simply based on location and time zone. If we were ever to unify the two it would be with a newer upgrade such as 1.25. And even then I doubt that support for 1.23 and TSF and even 1.21 would cease. Cutting them off would just worsen any 'split' anyway. And as has been said, there are tools for someone on one version to play against someone on another.
