Just a little off thread comment and that refers to users of pirated licenses.
We have been rather discrete about those users and address accordingly.
BUT
If a user has the gall to use this forum knowingly using a pirated license they won't be here for long.
RICH
Why? 1st you're selling a 2004 software for almost 200 dollars, to call it stupidly expensive would be an understatement, and there are people buying CNC's from websites like AliExpress that include the Mach3 software, obviously a pirated one.
There are countless people that i know that use pirated software not because they take pleasure in abusing the developer but simply because they cant afford it.
And if anybody would ask me if the should pay ~200 USD for a ancient piece of software id advise pirating it, if however that person uses the software to make money than i agree they should pay for it.
There are countless people that simply cant afford the software or are just interested in learning.
And i sincerely think they hurt nobody, if anything they might one day advertise the software to somebody that would be ready to buy it.
And again, for the 3rd and sure not the last time, charging almost $200 for a 2004 software, one wont be far from truth if he called you crooks.
