I was busted

[Grtrat1]

Yep, someone turned me into VB.. I got a call from my hosting co and they told me to remove the files.. Vb was going to fine them, and they were going to fine me $100.00..

So Im done with VB, till I can afford a license for 4 sites..

Happens to people all the time. You need to find new hosting.

wow, I just try to keep my site to myself. Hopefully that would help.

Jelsoft is well know to be rude on piracy, best you can do is to have a legal license then you are safe

that should be actually placed in Fun Stuff ;x

Quit bitchy, get offshore hosting.

 

[Galeras]

Even offshore hosting might get you down because of that... depends on the country and company. Best thing is to replace all the "vbulletin" phrases.
Scene crackz nfo always say "If a program is worth using, it's worth buying", so why not freeware? Just an idea...

True, but most of them allow nulled boards.

 

[Galeras]

They may allow, untill get an email form Jelsoft... it's always riscky, using a pirate software on someonelse's computer.

Most of the hosts in China doesn't give a shit about Jelsoft.
