Asking the question over and over in different ways does not prove his guilt.

More than likely Jelsoft has been notified, then Jelsoft will notify his host. He will lose his account, find another and be back at it.

Him using the product which is outdated is not a problem for TWF.

Him spamming the boards with his link trying to affiliate traffic from TWF to shellchoice can be contained, but even that will be difficult if he chooses.

Obviously you dont need to get a bounty to notify Jelsoft.

It is like anything, there is right & wrong and using something illegally is wrong and you don't need to "get a bounty" to advise the company that someone is illegally using their product. Why should people be able to use something for nothing if others have to pay.

Yes, I'm taking precautions to make sure someone doesn't get away with piracy, meaning I'm taking the appropriate measures recommended by Jelsoft. At this point, there isn't much else left to say other than by SWD, if he wants to defend himself, if he has any argument.

Precautions?

mjames — Sat, 08 Sep 2001 02:37:25 +0000

No, I doubt it. vBulletin's policy is to contact them when you suspect piracy. I suspect piracy and therefore took the appropriate actions and precautions based on my assumptions. vBulletin will go from there and if he is a proper license holder, no action will be taken.

Keegan — Sat, 08 Sep 2001 02:32:24 +0000

mjames you are making accusations that you could be liable for.

You have no direct proof other than your assumptions. If he is a pety spammer let him be, cancel his account here and move on.

Threatening him with this based on your assumptions is dangerous.

That is irrelevant. Can you give me a reason you're using 1.1.4? The only reason I can think of is piracy. This is ILLEGAL and Jelsoft vBulletin could be taking legal action against you. 1.1.4 is UNATTAINABLE from the vB site, therefore I have good reason to believe you ripped off vB in stealing a license.
