If you want to think it, fine.  No need to attack.
And if you think there is a need, back it up with a reasoned arguement.

I paid for my WB program and i get no problems.. Why don't you just contact a mod or admin and tell them about you're situation BE FOR shooting off at the mouth. These guys are not "Crooks" as you put it, but they have to make a living too so this site can continue to grow.. Dude, seriously CONTACT them and tell them whats going on, because I'm having no problem with my windows blind thing and it's working just fine for me keep up the good work guys, keep up being what this guy is calling you "crooks" lol j/k

Also! the one being a crook is you, using pirated software and such. And bing a...Dumb butt... So we don't care if you don't buy things from here, because we make sure to give the customer what they order... oh god I'm sounding like i work here lol, but anyway. The only one stealing is you dude..

I have read this discussion and may tell you that I'm very sad now...

I agree with Brad that a lot of russian people use illegal software. But this problem exists not only in Russia. For example one of the bigest site with hacked software you can find in Germany (the first illegal copy of DesktopX 3.1 Enterprise appeared exactly in this place)...

I'm not from Russia. I live in Ukraine by the way. I have bought Wincustomize Subscription and a lot of Stardock products. I don't do nothing unlawful here and don't use illegal software. As well as I hate pirates not less than all of you. Is there any reasons to ban my IP?

I can see that sometimes bad or just mad people appear here and bring trash on this site.    let's ostracise them away! But I don't understand why my IP may be banned because of these asses.

I agree with you Vad & do not want to see someone I respect & has contributed so much banned as a result of others actions...

But considering that Brad has not done this is just maybe a way of venting?... That is how I took it...

Yeah... May tell you that I'm not a hacker. However I know a several ways to get US or Canadian IP-address and use it to come here (this service costs ~ $50 single). So the total IP banning can't solve the problem with some idiots...

I think that it will be wholly enough if all of us who love this place will show to such people how we despise them and offer to go away quickly... (I know that this is Family site so I don't use more power words).

Im sure as easily as they can exclude an entire country they can also include IP's too.

When a problem gets so bad its hurting the business and community.. sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Vad, don't even consider for a moment that you would ever be in disfavor here. Congratulations on Journeyman status! Ukraine must be a special place, from what I have heard and seen. The wonder and power of the internet is often misused and can easily create a ____-storm. Just don't forget to "duck" your head when it passes by!

vStyler: I think you missed Vad_M's point, which is that the real bad guys can readily circumvent any IP-banning that WC would apply to an entire country; therefore, doing such a blanket ban would only hurt legitimate users like Vad_M, who could (if he chose) use an expensive workaround. However, I agree with MySecret--I don't think Frogboy was actually serious about banning all Russian IP addresses: (see the winky smile)
I've been thinking of banning all of Russia from the site.

Well, Warreni, I know the entity he is at least partially reffering to.. they had all of Stardock's, Lightstar's, Vad's and MY pay themes posted and are desperately trying to get the word out to everyone here at WC that they do so.. spamming the boards for hours on end etc etc..

Maybe he was kidding, maybe he wasnt. It is a harsh measure I agree but who knows.. all I know is it is a problem and hopefully there is a solution.

The glitches happened to me as well when I was logged it. It must have been a glitch in the system. Bad timing I guest for the other guy.
