It would be too risky for him to purchase it legally because then he would have to give vBulletin his personal info. I think it's safe to say that he got it some other way, but it's not a legal copy.

Very nice post! I however would like to see the electoral college gone. Popluar vote should be the deciding factor in the elections!

For the rest here is my rant....

If you want to talk trade deficits then lets talk! How about we buy more ++++ from other countires than they buy from us. Viola! We have a trade deficit. You want to talk about spending deficit lets talk! Tax cuts issued before 9/11 when we had a surplus (that surplus was our money not the governments.. the goverment doesnt make money), 9/11, and 2 wars = our spending deficit.

There isnt any way you can avoid either unless you people overseas stop leaching off us or the middle east stops killing our citizens!

You know another thing, our deficit would be eased if you French, Germans, and Russians would not elect such ++++ty leaders who would stand by their allies and support them in getting rid of people like Sadaam, instead of WORKING WITH PEOPLE LIKE SADAAM!!!!

Thats my rant for the day!

I don't think it makes sense guessing if the license was bought or not...

true. but you're assuming that his "personal info" on file is legit and counterfeit foreign documents weren't used to create his "personal info."

Another vB sighting - seems the latest Osama video file which was posted on the web (made the news as usually he sends his tapes to television). They showed a screen shot of the web on MSNBC Nightly News and it was a vB page in arabic.

:ermm:

wow, terrorist usin vb

i wonder what hacks THEY got lmao

:ponders using a self-submitting form attack to mess with their heads:

lol, there site mustve been "the bomb" ROTFL

From what I hear the admin team is Bin Laden and the Jets....

lmao!!!!!

Interesting that you find such humor in this kind of thread....

Here's a few pictures I took at the Pentagon and WTC that might point out just how insensative your remarks are in the context of this thread.

So next time you feel like making jokes about "the bomb" in a thread about terrorists organizations, maybe you'll consider that some people just might be offended by your attempts at humor.

Maybe you could take it in a lighter fashion though ;)

So because they are terrorists you think they wouldn't buy vB3? Pffh... If they use a pirate version they draw attention to themselves - While a large act of terrorism will, yes, draw attention, up until they commit the act, they want to remain as inconspicuous as possible, to avoid possible attempts to foil their plans - Therefore it is not unlikely that they purchased vBulletin...

Aside from this - Why should Jelsoft refund anything or donate anything to the family? Should Microsoft give something to the family for allowing the terrorists to use a Microsoft Operating System? Should Dell or Packard Bell or whoever made their machine components give something to the family for allowing the terrorists to operate their computers?

Answer: No.

If I were a terrorist, just because I drive a Renault Clio, doesn't mean Renault are responsible for what I do with it - Nor does a terrorist using vB3 mean Jelsoft has any responsibility for what is done with it...

Satan

i think it is funny, how some of you think that the main terrorists are the ones running the site. lmao

like bin-laden and al-zarqawi just hop on their laptops in a cave and admin web forums... give me a break...

i doubt they even know the forums exist in some cases.. they have bigger things going on...

I was referring to this song with that quip...

(Click the title to hear the mp3)

Bin Laden and the Jets
(Parody of Bennie and the Jets by Elton John)

Hey, kids have you seen Osama?
We haven?t heard a thing
Since he telephoned his mama
We checked his favorite cave
He didn?t stick around
We?re gonna have to send some troops
To hunt the bastard down

Hey, Taliban clerics gonna make them sweat
They?re gonna need those towels
Bin Laden and the Jets
Radicals think that he is wonderful
Al-Quaida thinks he?s really keen
He?s gotta bunch of kooks
That he calls troops
You know he?s sponsored by a puppet regime
Bin Laden and the jets

Binnie, Binnie, Binnie, Bin Laden and the jets, jets, jets

Written by Bob Rivers

And yes, I think that song is funny.

You know what *I* am offended by? People that thinks that just because their country got slapped with a fraction of what goes on in other countries every single f**king day, this somehow means they are entitled to mass amounts of sympathy and to be treated with special care. When the age comes where the US have hundreds of suicide bombers killing everyone inside a mall every now and then, or you get a president that tortures and kills everyone who doesn't vote for him, THEN I will shut my trap and THEN I will feel sorry for you.


But Im not trying to start something here, so Im gonna get BOT.
I think I know of a few hacks that they have installed:
* Advanced Bombing System
* Society Integration Hack
* TerrorNetwork Management System
* Inline Assassination Tools
;)

One of my few pet peeves are folks who post something obviously calculated to be inflammatory, then offer up a disclaimer. It's lame - really lame.

lol bin laden on a laptop :rolleyes:

Kinda like saying, "Don't take this the wrong way, but...."

Nobody is asking for sympathy - our response speaks for itself. I was referring to respect, something those people have earned by how they lived and died. You certianly won't hear me cracking jokes about suicide bombers that makes jokes towards the victims of their terrorist acts.

Boo freakin hoo. Why dont those people then stand up and stop the people that do it? The palestinians revered a terrorist who stole all their money and gave it that fat cow in france. The iraqis never once stood en masse to saddam and the afghanis did the same to the taliban.

If this is the best that you have to offer of a 'good' understanding of the real world then you need to travel more often, I have and can tell you some tough truths. I am sorry but if you let the iraqi government build a AAA site on your roof, then your house gets bombed into rubble because it shot at an american jet then tough luck. If you allow your city (fallujah) to be run by terrorists then have everything you own blown into rubble for it, tough luck.

Those 3,000 people in the WTC didnt do a damn thing wrong to anyone except go to work. Those kids in the observatory didnt do anything to anyone. Children on busses blown up by twisted suicide bombers in Israel didnt do anything wrong.

If you dont have the balls as a society to stand up and fight for whats right then just deal with the suffering you get. You let it happen, it doesnt just happen to you.

Send a vBulletin rep over to check their computers to see if they are using a valid licence

ROFL

you really needed to bump that old thread, didn't you ?!

start new intelligent topics instead...

No need to bump old thread.
