Default How do you propose vb3 will be preventing circulation of there script without lisc.

I see vb2.2.6 for download at many sites, and most of these are anime content not only do they have vb, but other scripts.

I wonder how vb3 can be a special thing to us legal owners? I go and I see vb2.2.6 everywhere and no liscenses...pretty un special if youa sk me :dead:

Just want to know how you think vb3 will be made special hehe.

I think maybe some sort of callback system, and each script has a little code, unique one that is, and then the server will look for 2 copies, and then maybe send back a little modification that will shut it down, maybe tell them to chmod the fodler 777 lol...so you can do something hehe, dunno

what do you think?

There's no such thing as software that can't be pirated.

yea but the only way of doing it which is already done is to have a callback code in the php... and then some smart person can then go and edit it out... thats how warez started for vb unfortunately...

Hmmm...

How about a function that requires the callback code for it to work...

I can list atleast 3 sites off the top of my head that have vb for download...lol, this callback function would be a good addition to reduce circulation somehow.

It would take the license owner two minutes to run the function, get its output and place it instead of the call. Or just remove it, lol.

Good job! You've reported each of them by now, right? :ermm:

BULL*.

With so many cases, it takes time to achieve anything. And while priority goes to sites actually running vB illegally, I'm sure Jelsoft would like to know about sites that offer it for download.

At the very least, not reporting them doesn't reflect well on you. Unfortunately, your complacency makes you part of the problem.

If you don't want to report them, post the URLs here and I or someone else will gladly report them.

:banana: (Again, he just looks funny... )

:ninja: Ninja??? Looks like a demented applehead that's been in the sun too long. I likie!
