Title: Help stop the spreading
Post by: pHaTTy on 24 November, 2003, 08:01:33
hi there,,

Ok i have recently caught activity of sharing ptokax 0.330 now its piszzing me off, i believe it to be very disrepectful to ptax, so i wud like to ask for you to help me to stop the spreading of the debug versions :)

bye adding a rule against asking for it, and sharing it

personally i have had about 13 ppl come ask me and my ops for it, i banned 11 of them ither 2 thought it was released due to many ppl getting it without being a beta tester, since i added the rule no one really asks me no more, and maybe integrate it as an anti file for illegalist or sumit 0.330dbg :)

hope some ppl comply and help me out stop the spreading thx

heh, the only way anyone would get it from me would be to hack my computer and take it forcefully.

I test it on a Secret hub and did not publish my hub, so only fakers and mldonkey client can find me, so no one ask me LOL.

All beta testers to Ptokax 0.330 should be aware and already know that this should not be shared until the public release is ready anyway.

I know there is alot of members like myself who can't wait till the public release, but some beta testers are actually breaking some rules by giving a copy to friends or other members from different communities.

I have not found this to be shared in any other hubs i have visited so i am happy that it's very hard to get.

So like myself i say lets just sit tight and wait till all beta testing has been completed.

Heres a little warning to some Beta Testers. You are a Beta Tester to Ptokax 0.330 so don't stuff it up by sharing it with close family and friends. You will eventually be caught and loose your reputation and maybe be banned on this forum...

Calm down every one, is easy to keep ptokax beta releases under control, it was done before and can be doing again, in what way?, i'm not going to explain it here, but when i pick ptacek online i will talk a little will him about reactivate the old beta releases protection, is easy to do it again and no, i'm not talking about the all known builds hosted in many places under differents names, i'm talking about some special releases that only were run in 2 or 3 hubs.

i second that phatty
you are not overreacting
with aMutex sudden departure
and taking everything with him
i wonder if he is the one that was spreading the
beta releases from the begining....just a thought.

but screw those nontrustworthy pricks
ptacez put his trust in those few beta testers to not
release the betas...screw em. 8)

just a quick idea, maby useless, but pcaztek can hardcode the urls of all beta testing hub's in the beta's.
select your own url from the list and your running, that way for non beta testers it's useless 2 have.
