If you want to promote legal software in your country, step #1 is to take down your cracked server. Where have I heard that before?
There is NO LEGITIMATE JUSTIFICATION for running a server that facilitates the use of pirated software. I would like you to read that line above. Now, read it again. Continue reading it over and over until you accept its meaning. Piracy is a fact of life everywhere in the world. The decision to break the law is yours alone. You cannot promote lawful use of software while promoting piracy at the same time. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nevermore Sent: Tuesday, October 28, 2008 9:28 AM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] help !!!
