Fusen pwned the cheaters
Kudos to Fusen for owning netcoders.be .
Too bad it looks like he only dl'ed the databases and not the code of the cheats themselves, might have given a boost to IAC .

My favorite parts of this drama are the personal threats against Fusen. These clowns make tens of thousands of dollars by violating numerous software licenses, yet they threaten to sue a guy for peeking through a hole in their forum.
Pure comedy gold.

All you have to do to piss them off even more is report the cheat creators to their local IRS / tax office. Wanna bet they made all that money without "declaring" it ?ouroboro wrote:My favorite parts of this drama are the personal threats against Fusen.

In case they're european (I guess Pansemuckl is german), they're only violating one software license (ET's).ouroboro wrote:My favorite parts of this drama are the personal threats against Fusen.

Software licenses are usually not valid in Europe. At least if you bought the product/software on a data medium (e.g. a CD), because the purchase contract already allows you to use the product.
If there's no data medium (e.g. you downloaded the software), these software licenses are legally binding. However, local law > software license: a software license can't prohibit you to do things, local law allows you to do.
But software is protected by copyright (WIPO Copyright Treaty).
I guess you can't code a cheat without reverse engineering. And this is e.g. in Germany (based on a european directive) only allowed when:
1. the producer allows you to,
2. you want to fix a bug/flaw,
3. you want to create interoperability (same as in DMCA).
So, if they find a good reason why they are creating interoperability, then their actions are absolutely legal (in Germany/Europe).
If it actually gets to the point that he needs a defense, I'll do a backflip.Nellie- wrote:It's what fusen's basing his defence on =)))

Note that I have an ever-expanding waistline, due to an incurable love for high-calorie microbrews, making a backflip nearly impossible.

defense ?
They say they have lawyers, for what ?
why the hell would they have lawyers, they aren't an incorporated company, or even a llc, just mouthy little no-lifes who think they are above negative reactions. They got owned by their own stupidity. If they were half as good of coders as they profess to be, they could write an unbeatable anti-cheat that could immediately get them more income than 20 or 30 $125 hacks and set them up in business proper. They claim to hate punkbuster, why not write a better anti-cheat and take over pb's business. It's all very laughable, the posts on their forum are a good indication of the intelligence level of the whole bunch (approx 13yrs old)
[edit] It seems they took all the threats down from their site, good thing some of us documented them

admitting an attack on a website isn't good business, Fusen didn't attack the site, he just figured out an admin password (the "Super Hacker" used the same password for all his accounts) I'd say he was fairly safe from any prosecution or chargesNeix
