I know for a fact that my vbstats hack is used in some warez forums. Its unfortunate, but there is nothing I can do to stop it. I don't however see the point of closing off the forum any more than it is. This is of course just a alternate opinion, I will support whatever decision is made by John and James, just wanted to point out the hacks forum is what ultimately made me decide to make mine VB.

With out a doubt.. Yes! I payed for mine and worked hard on it.. That shouldn't mean someone can come up here and get vb for free and make it as good as the best forum here. It would seem unfair.

These changes were less about stopping piracy (although that's always a goal) but more about stopping the support of piracy. It's one thing for someone to use a pirated board; it's another for that person to come to the support forums and use a Support Team member's time helping with a product they did not legitimately obtain, when the Support person could be spending time on people who actually paid for the product.

hmm, posts like the above make me consider voting 'Yes', though I'd usually vote for 'No'

I say yes to protecting the hacks.. BUT. Pirates allways seem to find a way to get what they want and i don't see anyone or anything ever stopping that.

Just my opinion.. sorry.
