And that's the problem, right there. I have no time nor will to engage in all of this just to use software I have already paid for. Often these things happen at the most inconvenient times and take literally weeks to resolve due to slow support. The fact is that when I'm faced with that kind of problem, I would rather download a cracked version from net and be done with it than waste my time justifying why I need to activate software I have already paid for.tapper mike wrote:I can't speak for IKM
Many software companies operate in the same manner. If you present a reasonable case they can provide a reasonable solution. But you have to be the one who contacts them and conducts yourself in a reasonable fashion with them.
And just to be clear, I usually do try to resolve those matters in a proper way. But the limit where I find it too tedious and/or inconvenient is very quick to come. Often I'm just too busy to waste my time on such problem. The fact is that if a dev wants to use CP that puts software at the mercy of some external factors outside of the control of paying customer then it must always work 100% time 24/7/365. I have absolutely no tolerance for anything less.
