fortunately my english isnt good enough to translate "piece of pond life" correctly but then again something tells me that not understanding it is ok in this case. or are you flaming now?! Wink

It was not a compliment... in fact, you can interpret it as a flame.

and like crimson stated correctly: i dont play renegade. i even dont own any serial so serial-banning me from xwis should be quite hard anyways Razz

Your life must truly suck if you spend so much time trying to destroy a game you don't even play. Yes, that was a flame too.

This does not answer why you are not banned from this forum.

When have I ever implied that I SUPPORT his software product???? Are you on crack? I don't support his software or his motives for creating it in the SLIGHTEST degree and it's ludicrous that you'd ever think that.

I'd have an easier time addressing this paragraph if I know what the hell you were talking about, since I didn't say you support his software product.

What is the point of a ban if it doesn't keep the person from doing the thing you're trying to stop them from doing?!??!?!?!?!

I repeat: it would send a clear message that you oppose it.

Say I ran a pub. Someone used my pub as a venue to deal drugs, and I barred them for it. Would that stop them dealing drugs? In all likelihood, no. It'd make it pretty damn clear that this pub of mine officially opposes dealing drugs on the premises, wouldn't it?

If someone brings the drugs onto your premises, then you have every right to ban them. If they however are acting as a good citizen and don't bring the drugs onto your premises, I don't think that the fact that they deal drugs elsewhere would be a good reason to remove them from the premises: they haven't broken any rules. And in fact, if they're being kind, courteous, helpful towards others, and STILL not breaking rules, I think it would make you look like a dick rather than them.

CW.cc is different. It's not just supporting the CW.cc forums, it's also supporting the games played under CW.cc, so has every right to ban someone from both the games and the forums. But if someone starts cheating in a game that does *NOT* have the CW.cc banner (let's say for example, some random Renegade server, or some other random game), I don't think you should ban them if they're still kind, courteous, and helpful towards others in Renegade and on your forums.

Why he chooses to write hacks for software related to a game that he doesn't even play is beyond me. But the fact that he's kind to the people that use it, helpful to the people that have trouble with it, and probably more intelligent about it than most of us here, makes me agree with the idea of not banning him.
