It just seems highly suspicious that this "feature" is added to the product but not to the product description. Were i not changing the phrases into understandable English terms (work which i wanted to help the dev with) I would simply not have noticed this near spamvertisements existence, thing that might be against the guidelines of vb.org modding, if not that just plain unethical. I must stress I appreciate the effort the developer has put into this plugin.

Had i to chose between giving $50 or advertising a service i never heard of and risking users privacy, i'd give the $50 in a hearthbeat.

So in this regard, Mrpaint. My point of view : it does not make sense to deceive and trick your client?le. How are you going to regain the trust of the people that when finding this out will likely disable the mod, and think twice before installing anything you coded.

Frankly whats next ? Backdoors in mods; fine as long as nobody finds out?
