First of all, you're a f@cking retard and I hope that eric s. removes you for this.   cs retail comes with a cd-key. Here is the only thing, if you have the regular HL with mod CS then everytime there is an update you will need to download both the retail and mod updates. I would just buy the regular hl so that you have the same and can share updates to save bandwidth. It sucks to have to download 4X80mb updates(i always get the full) even on cable because most of the sites are swamped.   Let me get back to my rant. YES, we are saying that you have to pay a whopping 20-30$ for another copy of HL. Even if it wasn't required I would want another key just so my stats would not get messed up. You know that if your brother gets banned or you, that you are both banned. More and more admins are sharing banned lists too. Just because you bought the cd doesn't make it legal to install it and play at the same time with your nephew. It doesn't matter if your nephew is family either. This is a huge myth that many people think that it is alright to install software on a family members computer and it is legal. This is not the case. I suggest if you "don't like our attidues" or don't agree that you take it up with someone from sales at sierra. I think they will set you straight.      -----Original Message----- From: Dan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 24, 2001 1:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: won id sharing.. What so your saying,  just for me and my nephew to play halflife we should buy another copy?    and you say im a software pirate because i took my READ  " BOUGHT " halflife copy that i got when IT FIRST CAME OUT ALL THOSE YEARS AGO  and installed it on my nephews pc which is literally 30 centre metres from my pc on my desk, then i proceeded to use MY BOUGHT CD KEY to allow me and him to play ONLINE..   i dont see any problem with what we WERE doing..  its my cd key.. i payed for it.. and why shouldnt i be able to share it with my own blood and kin? i totally disagree with your attitudes towards this, but one thing you have got right.. im going to have to go and buy another copy of halflife just so he can continue playing with me  ..  sigh.     QUESTION:  does the stand alone retail counter strike come with a cd key?  it must do surely i know its a silly question, im just checking..     Dan ----- Original Message ----- From: Ryan McCullough To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 24, 2001 7:29 PM Subject: RE: won id sharing.. So you don't like the fact that you haveto spend $29.99 for another cdkey? or did they also turn back on the one IP at a time thing as well? If its the first, buy another key. If its the second, I guess we are all SOL. -----Original Message----- From: Dan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 24, 2001 11:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: won id sharing.. looks like valve has re implemented banning (no sharing) of cd keys.. damnit i hate it when you do this..  me and my nephew have both our pc's connected to my cable modem connection so we can both play, and now look what happens.  they re enable this (excuse my language)  B*LL SH*T!!!   this is seriously annoying...   regards Dan   +  A seriously pi**ed off nephew
