It's for downloading the officially released roms from the HTC site when they come out. If I remember, HTC's site requires you to enter your s/n just to see the entire list of downloads for a given phone. The reason for asking for each country is that the phones are released in each of these markets with a different set of serials, which (for language, legal, and carrier reasons) prevents customers from downloading a ROM that's not intended for their phone.

The reason for asking/posting on here and having a full list is that people can:
a) keep an eye out for new roms without relying on the owners from that particular country to check regularly
b) make it easy for owners of a phone with a different country's serial to get the new rom, which can then be flashed on if they have HardSPL. Some people do this because they want to have the latest features while still using official roms (not sure what they have against cooked roms, but each to their own.)

It's easier for someone in every country to download the rom and then upload it elseware without sharing their S/N

I agree. We've never had a problem before of HTC roms not been published on xda developers. I can't see a need for this.

I don't really want to get myself involved in a discussion on this, especially since I was just answering a question, not advocating...but...Really? Never seen problems?

I know that leaked roms have become very common lately, and I agree, there's no reason that the roms can't or shouldn't be placed somewhere else so that they are more readily and reliably available...but I know that I can find several threads that are filled with people asking/looking for serial numbers to use on HTC's site to download some official rom or another. If I recall, the Diamond had a lot of times where official roms were really slow to become available on here (to the order of days or possibly weeks).

I agree that public posting of serials is not the best solution even if the leaked roms somehow stopped appearing. But I don't see a good reason that a few of the more skilled and dedicated shouldn't have a collection of serials so they can easily check the site regularly.

I never saw the Diamond Problems (I'm not arguing that there could have been some) nor have I seen a massive number of SN requests. But that's just my personal experience - I can't be everywhere

Leaked ROMs never appear on HTC.com so that's a different kettle of fish.

OP,

Maybe it's a good idea not to post the complete personal Data of a persons Serial number.

Put in a Few XX's.

And also i would not ever recommend anyone to, and can understand if someone doesn't, just give up his serial number.

Let it be a lesson from the past that it is any members Call to Re upload a downloaded official Rom and post it to the Wiki.

It's a nice effort, but having peoples Serial numbers is a touchy subject that we need to talk about as the moderation team.
