********* using false copyright?

[Sophion-Black]

********* using false copyright? could this be true?

A search on a hunch about the infamous *********, Teamkill and Cheat, on the U.S. Copyright Office comes up a negitive on all key words such as:

1) *********-Community
2) Teamkill and Cheat
3) Supercheat

This discovery may put any ********* applications at risk of "mutalation" for source codes to be put on other applications to counter the effects of their "unforgivable cheating". If you wish to search yourself and check my discovery, please do to see if im crazy. the website i used was the US Copyright Office. If you too find the claim "false" then this may open the door to a whole new level of fighting cheats. donno what it will be but i hope this discovery helps out in some way ***

NOTE TO ADMINS: I know I was posted in the Cheat and cheat prevention thread but the more i think about it, it kind of needs to be its own thread for the news to get out

Erm, I don't quite see what your saying.. At all..

Can you say it in idiots terms, please

it means we won't be put under any lawsuit if we dissasemble the aplications they make and use the coding from the application to disable any cheating methods.

i hope its a big script like:
<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">_cheat = this select 0[/QUOTE]
so people can fix the the global variable (_cheat) so its messes up. im not really sure how this may help the fight against cheaters but all i know is that we can use the coding in other applications and distribute them without any headaches.

nice CODE only if it would be that simple

to depbo their cheataddons breaks not one law, believe me. just their own ridiculous ones&#33; and btw, they can try to bring us to law...i&#39;m on the rack. they say they code cheats for educational purposes (lol), so we do the same by depbo&#39;ing their addons...

You do not need to register copyrights for them to be valid.

No copyright holder can prevent you from picking apart their copyrighted works though, as long as you don&#39;t distribute them.
Reverse engineering is perfectly legal.

I can&#39;t really see cheaters suing for us stopping them. I mean afterall, that would blow their cover.

for an application such as Supercheat, yes. if there is another studio that uses the same coding and stuff and pass it off on their own... they would whine and comlain that the application was theirs because they "claimed" they had copyright. but through a US cort of law they would only piss off the judge because they have no recodord of it ever exsisting and with any protection at that.

About redistributing... I&#39;ts safe to say that we can easily reverse engineer thier apps and use the coding in annother application (but to reverse the effect) without any headaches.

I just hope something would put them in "Checkmate"

Why can&#39;t we just kill them?

[russin]

it would be cool if they disapeared forever *** ***

oh no they got hacked again *** *** ***
