I was using the word genuine in context per say more than you perceived, you can't be genuine if you're "fake" is how I meant it.
So we were using the word genuine differently. My intention was users who buy a vbulletin license are genuine. Nothing more.

I'm not sure where I mentioned people using a nulled vbulletin product for testing reasons need to change.
If they can't find a method to access vbulletin for testing reasons and they resort to piracy, then that's on them. Sure it's not legal and sure they may feel shame. However, I think they'd feel more frustrated than shame.
As it highlights lack of testing opportunities available from vbulletin.
Judging people who use nulled vbulletin products negatively does not make them childish. Hence I don't really see the need for you to use that analogy/way of expressing what they're doing
Those who have/ are using nulled vbulletin product have to be more cautious than those who don't. Most likely from their webhost if nobody else.
I only find that to be slightly unethical, however I do find it understandable and I wouldn't judge them negatively for it. I find it illogical for anybody to ignore this matter as a non factor. Acknowledging it is the first step, whether or not anything should be done about it is a whole other matter. As simply doing nothing may be the best course of action for business.

This method isn't very ideal though because it requires constantly nagging the licence owner to download X mod. Also I don't think the licence owner would allow one of their limited email slots to be given to somebody they don't know too much and/or access to their FTP for the user to upload mods themselves.
Maybe my use of wording is poorly put. But I've repeated this point several times now
Or maybe I didn't quite understand what you meant in that paragraph. But I'm pretty sure my quote above has already addressed it.
