this is the point that i start to have a philosophical problem with your approach. now...its your software and your company and you have every right to run it however you choose. but to me this comes across not much better than the pirates.Urs wrote:Fair enough, I can agree with that.chaosWyrM wrote: ah i think we misunderstood each other. yes i can see how you can prove it HAS worked...but if it doesnt work you cant prove anything. im certainly not saying that the cp never works...obviously it does...sometimes.
It works often enough for me to not be depressed when a crack comes out. I think working cracks hurt my state of mind more than my wallet. Non-working cracks however seem to be good enough to finance an employee. Or our advertisement. Or both.
you deliberately and with forethought, purposely seed bad versions to effectively blackmail people into a purchase. you could simply make it not work, in a more reasonable time frame, but you dont. you make it wait far longer than it needs to so that people incorporate it and losing it is worse than buying it.
you purposely benefit from piracy, and in fact encourage it so that you can.
if pirates shouldnt benefit from piracy...why should you?
