giving away a subscription to wincustomize.com
Tuesday, October 28, 2003 by mfaccone | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I am wanting to give my subscription of wincustomize.com to someone here who can't afford it.
I am using the honesty program here so please don't ask if you make more than 20,000.00 US Dollars a year, or if you live at home with your parents that make more than 20,000.00 US Dollars a year, or your parents are giving you an allowance and sending you to college.
If you fall somewhere below that catagory and really want the subscription which is good for almost 2 years... give or take a month I think.... and Jafo returns my email without sarcasm and/or locking the thread, then let me know here. We will decide who will receive it if it is possible. If, due to pride or whatever, you wish to remain completely anonymous then you can email me at [email protected] or you could email Jafo here.

It's unfortunate that all of this is a result of Wincustomize.com's protection of a commercial work by Lane KarKruff http://www.blueskyheart.com/ [as is only proper].
Quite absurd, really.
And, no, the thread won't be locked unless it, too deteriorates into more personal attack.

As far as the subject of this thread.. if we could get back to that... JAFO.. is it possible for a subscription to be transfered?
One question... requiring one answer

Contact [email protected] [T-Man]
He will be able to answer that.
There's your one answer to your one question.

| So don't try to make it look like I was trying to pass some commercial work as my own or something. |
Nowhere was/is that the case.

The product here wasn't faulty... and I would rather not be refunded, even if that were possible which I doubt.
But, as a paid subscriber, I would also think that instead of wincustomize just revoking my access to this site as they suggest that they would allow the paid subscription to continue with someone else as owner.

Thank you! If you would have given that information out sooner...
instead of redundant responses.
Oh well... waiting for a real decision on this.

Redundant responses are a product of obscure communication.
You are 'paid to be an a$$hole' [your words], but I am not paid to be at your beck and call.
Had you bothered to look in the 'About' section at left you would see this.....

Now...the bit you are interested in is the last entry, as it's alphabetical, and 'T' comes after 'J'....and the salient phrase is 'Account Information'....

That email wasn't necessarily sent to you.

Most people here polled that way on music.
Part of the double standards I see all over the place these days.
I should be able to give a subscription as a gift... especially when I have none of the applications that come with this subscription loaded on my computer

I answered #4....as no other option was suitable.
Double standards may exist in the minds/morals of some site members, but definitely NOT in this site's administration.

| And if you had read my first post in this thread... I asked an administrator if I could do this... email sent yesterday... no response. That email wasn't necessarily sent to you. |
I received it, though...but as per my previous email, I told you I'd expended sufficient of my unpaid time dealing with you one-on-one and was, as I put it in that email ' sufficient communication has transpired to resolve this, and am loathe to expend any further time. There's 720,000 other site members to consider.'
Now I'm stuck here ensuring truth does not become the first casualty, as always.

And if they both want the subscription can it be a caged match and who has the best Camera, because we definitly want pic's of it

It is still paid for and he would no longer have download privileges under buying said product.
The new person would have it.
Same account, new owner
Old owner has nothing (No copies no anything)
Technically the only thing I see here as a problem is that does he delete all said software on his computer before giving away the account.
Since he is talking about w years I assume this is the WinCustomize browser app.
For me, I wouldn't want to smurf away my stuff because of a smurfin thread.
What the smurf is that about?

No *longer* have download privledges. He downloaded the apps, he gives his subscription to someone else, and now they will have the right to do the same without paying. How is that different than giving an unauthorized copy to someone?
You can't assume he'll just delete the software from his system.
