I have my own things to say that I missed.
A - I am totally against hacking, consider a flame there. (If anyone gives me the hacking/cracking, technically programmers are hackers speech, I don't give a damn)
B - Higgins only brought it up, the idea that he wasn't 100% sure, no way about it, you're gonna get people that won't trust you or your work if you just suddenly pop out of nowhere. I tend to question people on how they aqquirred legit copies of Max, although it is likely they paid for the student version.
C - Dude Badmonour, you do need to sort yourself out, I mean no body has yet been offensive, but contructive, even if a plagerism issue did come up...How on earth you'd be offended as deeply as your reaction shows makes you a ticking time bomb, that quality kind of draws attention to you, and taking things so seriously can make you a target for people to provoke that (not here though)
D - Not a threat, but a warning? You mean you are bodyguarded by hackers who watch what you do and you have no control over? I highly doubt it, therefore the hacking 'warning' is a threat in my book.
E - If I find I get hacked after this, I will complain to forum moderators/admin and allow them to take legal actions, or provide me with info to do so myself, my sister is a chatroom admin, she knows where to take the info to get an ISP ban for you.
