each time someone find for the first time that we have a dark side of the net, we see that kind of thread of panic and stress.

you can not have a safe side of things without an unsafe side... it's like " hell VS paradise " ... and it's not always clear which side is the paradise. you see the nulled market as a bad thing, but remember that if we would not have these nullifiers, you would have an unsafe software with flaws and insecure authentication. these pirates help you having a really efficient forum.

for the release side of things, yeap, it's bad... i always suffered this situation until vbEnhancer.com, because i did not want to see my stuff released there and unsupported... now i do not care anymore... they want to play with my stuff, that's bad for them, nobody will help them if they crash their forum.

in the last 2 years, i was involved in some of these pirates sites (yes you can check on google), because i wanted to spy on who was doing it and who was really using it... i can tell you that 90% of these "members" have no idea of how to manage vBulletin at first. they have their small fan sites hidden, and they ask for basic questions about how to change the vBulletin title in the footer... pathetic... their future is simple: they switch to phpBB and the more addicts are paying their license in the next months. for the 10% that have knowledge of what they do, i can tell that they are doing it just because they are renegades... most of them have legit licenses, they just do it to be different. and some just hate to pay for products because these products do not worth 100 or 200$.... this is something not related to vb.org because this site is not providing paid solutions.
