I was tired. Nothing was aimed at you.

I guess the point I was trying to make is that all the copyright and liense agreements are useless against a theif that wants to steal your stuff, package it a little differently and sell it on the internet.

Physicaly catching him to serve a summons is near impossible.

GWx team as an example. Earlier in their beginnings their work was stolen and used in an add-on for SH3, sold on the internet and at all major stores.

Gamestop, BestBuy, Fryes elec. to name a few and are still to this day on the shelves of two.

To add salt to the wound they (the thiefs) had the approval of Ubisoft.

So in closeing the point I was trying to make is nobobys stuff is safe on the wide open internet. And that is saddening.

I also want to thank you for the tools you have gave so genoursly to us at SubSim.
