Meksilon Posted December 23, 2001 Share Posted December 23, 2001 Hi guys, I received MANY complaints about including copy protection patches on my website, many claimed I didn't own games. for a little fun I programmed a splash page that would randomly ask you for a dial-a-pirate number, but then reprogramed it to be a solution generator and made another for the mix'n'mojo code wheel - for MI2 (both took some time concidering I had to copy all the numbers on the code wheels and then verify them). But I saw two people asking about MI2's copy protection so here it is: My website hosts full patches to remove copyprotection from MI1 and MI2.

Fender Posted January 5, 2002 Share Posted January 5, 2002 You shouldn't give away stuff like that..... Get it off your site! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metallus Posted January 5, 2002 Share Posted January 5, 2002 Agreed. Copy protection issues should be taken up with LucasArts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meksilon Posted January 6, 2002 Author Share Posted January 6, 2002 And here are the complaints... And YES I will put up the patches when I put up another website. =mek= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meksilon Posted January 13, 2002 Author Share Posted January 13, 2002 Originally posted by fender and I will edit the site adress out of every post I can...... as will other mods hopefully. Oh geez, I once asked LucasArts if they had a problem with me distrubuting copy protection, I sent the request to techsupp@lucasarts.com (thier olny PUBLIC email). They fowarded it for me to legal@lucasarts.com (I think that's what it was), and five or so days later they said they have no problem whatsoever. Since I had also asked them about The Scumm Bar distrubting MI1's .mp3 files they explained since the sound track was released digitally with the game they had no problem, although it was illgeal and they could stop them, what I'm doing is NOT illegal. I had asked some other stuff I do not need to repeat here, mainly about the copyright on save games, on this, on that, et cetera. =mek= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fender Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 This message will be nice for whoever banned him! Oh praise you, oh praise you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kjølen Posted January 15, 2002 Share Posted January 15, 2002 So THIS is why he got banned, heh, I thought he was banned for the racist and religion scorning thing. It was my idea to ban him for that. He needed to be removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natty Posted January 15, 2002 Share Posted January 15, 2002 Yeah- he was banned for the religious comments and stuff. Although people weren't happy with him for this either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fender Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 who banned him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natty Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 I asked Metallus to ban him- mainly due to the fact I had finally had enough of his comments about religion and everything. The final straw came when he said he had spoken to God himself and amoung other things in that post (can't remember which one) Metallus agreed and banned him. I don't mind people having an opinion on religion, but when people try to force their beliefs onto other people (such as what Mek was doing) and then saying everyone is gonna go to hell blah blah blah blah. The thing that got me was the comment that catholics believe the pope is higher than God or some crap he was going on about- I asked my mother about it (she's religious, but not obsessive) and she said it's a load of crap. Anyways, he's banned now, maybe banning him was a lil harsh, and if everyone agrees it was, well I'm sure Metallus can unban him- I just thought if he was banned it would teach him a lesson.

Kjølen Posted January 17, 2002 Share Posted January 17, 2002 ...no...not harsh at all. It is the least you could do. We will let God do the judging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fender Posted January 27, 2002 Share Posted January 27, 2002 how come your back? And you still had better not put the copy protection up.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemon Head Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 Yes there have been issues in the past which you and i and everyone are violently opposed to - but mek has been allowed back into the forums with a second chance, it's only fair to try and give him that chance and not take every pot shot you see fit. He knows he's skating on thin ice and, i think, will be more careful with his words as a result, but if you want to help matters, please don't aggrevate.
