I do not agree. This site is privileged to have a community that contributes to it, it's not the other way around. Without the members, vb.org is useless.

any copyright statement is just a statement... to apply it to your goods, you have to have an advocate representing you to the court... so you have to pay for this representation. Jelsoft is paying their own lawyer for their own script, but they will never pay for the scripts released here for one reason... we are not part of Jelsoft...

and this is correct.

Then why even bother having any copyright rules here if they can't be enforced when the hacks are taken from here in the first place? The author has no real protection from anything.

sorry but it's not ... copyright is a statement. a law is enforced by the government. if the copyright would be a law, we would have a council at the government which would protect all authors from theifs.. that is not the case... you have to represent yourself in any case, not the government.

i know you are talking about the laws that are supposed to protect the authors with copyrights, but they are written to make everything not-protected by the government... there is only a few countries where the authors are protected by the government, and they are places where piracy is so limited it's useless to enforce the laws... (Bengladesh is one of those)

Law or not, it doesn't help us as authors if someone puts the hacks on another site and we can't afford to go after them. Especially is they got the hacks from here where we are supposed to be protected.

There is also the issue of my copyrights not begin upheld in some country half-way around the world. I can't speak Russian so how the heck am I supposed to report it anyway?

Friendly advice: If you don't want your work on random servers on the internet do not publish it anywhere. Otherwise you have a 99.9% chance of begin disappointed and angry at your fellow man.
