2) The mod was version 2.1 when I released it, 5.0 was out by the time I reported it. It was a very old copy and should not have still been in use.
3) The person who released it replaced my copyright notice with their own and was charging to remove it, I was concerned that people were handing over money without good reason.
There are good reasons not to notify by default, but on occasion it would be appropriate.
