I have a question. What if we want to make most of it on our own, but have some of the scripts you provide too? Do we have 100% ownership of the stuff on the site?

>.> I need legal stuff here.

If you add additional scripts that do not require ANY of the files from MySobaVPG, then you may claim these as your own. However, you may NOT remove the copyright notice from the bottom of ANY pages unless they do not rely on MySobaVPG. You may not attempt to sell MySobaVPG, upgrades requiring parts of MySobaVPG, or modified MySobaVPG scripts.

Hope that helped. Please note that you'll receive the full legal information upon purchase.

Yes, and you may purchase upgrades directly from us- There are plenty available, in all categories ranging from scripts to art! We'll even code you something custom!

I have to admit, this did sound too good to be true. After looking at the site, many "quotes" from kronik scripts are shown, how wonderful. Next off, we cannot re-sell the scripts... Well, that is going to be merely impossible to stop, unless you invest into tracking software, and a licensing protocol. If someone is buying rights to use/own the scripts, they have the right, that if they cannot afford to run the site (if it gets popular) that they could sell it.

The only way I would invest into something like this, is if it had a full-fletched installation script, a templating system, an API, database and user classes, a large function library, security implementation, complete and detailed user and site logging, clean and tidy scripts making things easy to customize and the right to NOT show any copyright information regarding the creator, hence, it is PAID software!!

I am not bashing you, not trying to make you feel "down", I am just giving you some pointers, so you could actually make some money. You aren't going to make any money selling software, that you could just go somewhere else and get similar, more-completed software for free! So complete a full-fletched installation system, a CMS with WYSIWYG protocols, and a PHP Customization API, which will in the long run, make things better. Invest some money.

the way I see it is that people who are buying this script aren't getting that much for it considering that you're selling a virtualpetsite script which doesn't have enough features if you look at the order page.

I must say good luck with this, take ephene's advise to make it a much more proffesional.

I've done my homework, thanks. The scripts don't have a trace of Kronic. If Jordan thinks they do, he can feel free to choose a court date, otherwise stay out of it.

It is none of your business, either way.

Why would I take you to court you idiot?

I'm not the one thats complaining, I just feel sorry for whoever that purchases your crappy script when they could just download kronik of me for free lmao.

And it is our business as you are targetting it to our community, especially when haywire is a admin here:), and all of these users belong to this community. If you don't like our critismic then your welcome to go sell your kronik scripts somewhere else and try to earn a good intake.

Now show us the snippet of code:) I'm still waiting buddy.

I lol'd at the idea of anyone trying to build a business based off of that trashy codebase.

I suppose some things never die, but having that as my little bit of immortality is just kind of...sad.

Also, Haywire, before you try to tell someone what the terms of the GPL are, please read the license. It expressely *allows* modification and redistribution (even for-profit redistribution) of sourcecode. The FSF has a very nice (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html) FAQ on the subject of the GPL.

Why do you ignor the guy when he has just proven the rubbish you lot have been going on about GLP for months is wrong, and you can actually sell them.



I just found out that a company has a copy of a GPL'ed program, and it costs money to get it. Aren't they violating the GPL by not making it available on the Internet?
No. The GPL does not require anyone to use the Internet for distribution. It also does not require anyone in particular to redistribute the program. And (outside of one special case), even if someone does decide to redistribute the program sometimes, the GPL doesn't say he has to distribute a copy to you in particular, or any other person in particular.

What the GPL requires is that he must have the freedom to distribute a copy to you if he wishes to. Once the copyright holder does distribute a copy program to someone, that someone can then redistribute the program to you, or to anyone else, as he sees fit.

Because I'd like him to state it on his website that he hasn't built these scripts himself, which he claims to have done.

I'd also like users to know that they can just download this for free:), without paying for any of it.

Ok, fine.

I claim under penalty of purgury 100% ownership of the MySoba scripts, that NO PART of these scripts are under ANY Public License (GNU or otherwise), and ALL copyrights belong to ME.

If anyone really thinks they are kronic, then I'd be glad to see you in court.

I know these are not kronik. I've seen the code compared to the kronik code, and it's WAY different. The site might be relatively basic, but it's about 10x as secure than kronik. I believe they offer free/paid upgrades, so when the site adds new features (ie. battledome) then you automatically get them. Which I'm sure he's working on new scripts anyway. Considering it's only $11, that's a pretty good deal.
