Forced Registration to Stardock

Monday, September 23, 2002 by ophir | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

What the f* is this "server too busy"
fake? The intension "do not check wether this might be worth paying, just pay" is obvious anyway.

Besides, though using purchased Stardock
software, it also sucks being treated like people who prefer not to spread personal data everywhere.

Well, not very user friendly >

You're right. You know, it's all part of Stardock secret plan to take over the World. Don't forget that they also send viruses to all their competitors. I've even heard that they even started nogociations with the communist governement of China after the CIA turned them down.
Be afraid, be very afraid.

Oh boy... here we go again!

Registration here is required to participate.

If you are stardock customer you had to register the software, register here with the same email address.

If you are worried about personal info, hide your email address, only the staff will know what it is.

If you are still worried use a disposable email address like Yahoo.

There mere fact you are connected to the net implies you are sending info to the outside world, if you are that worried, just unplug yourself!

Bandwidth is reserved for customers during peak times, as a customer I'm sure you will understand.

Thanks for your opinion.

You know, after a while all the posts like this start looking like the same person... Like there is some slack-jawed, cave-fish-pale automaton, just downloading software and flaming... downloading and flaming...

maybe that's where tech support people go when they die; to a little, dark room in hell to be 'flame zombies', harassing their living peers...

The original poster apparently thinks user friendly = free.

Tell me. Do you consider Windows XP to be user friendly? If so, was it free? If so, can you tell me how to get this free copy of Windows XP, without violating any laws.

That's the part that killed me. Because he gets "server busy" error, he thinks Stardock does it on purpose to force people to buy the WC subscrition.
Man!

Oh, and I forgot to tell you. It's Stardock that killed Kennedy!
