Strangely enough, I did a Google search on my hack's name a few days ago. There were about 3 questions relating to the hack, and 10+ unauthorized download links. I've only released that hack on this site, too. The license check is just wasted effort.

There is no way to avoid piracy and there never will be one. It's just a fact of life in this big old world we live in.
I have to say I agree with that statement. At the end of the day it all boils down to a persons morals. If he likes something he might have tried via illegal download first and then decides to buy it. Thats great!
I bet there are loads here who first tried vBulletin via P2P sharing. Then liked it and bought a licence.

Absolutely right. And the licence verification system, that gives access to support and hacks, helps to give up the dark side
I've only recently started coding and the fact that someone MUST own a vB licence before they can download the attachments I post - is great
I wouldn't be so sure about that.
On another board I go on, someone who is a member here made a post saying that they can get anyone any hack just as long as they post the one they want. People had posted & this person was uploading the hacks to Rapidshare. And this board I go on is far from a piracy one, but one of the mods saw the post, deleted it & banned that person.
There really is no way to prevent it. It's basically a put up or shut up kind of thing. Having to have a valid license to get hacks from here seems great & then you find out some of those same license holders can't be trusted. It makes me wonder how many people bought licenses solely to give out the hacks to non-license holders.
