SDJ new policy

[S_B]

I hadn't read all the post on this thread. I just know that there is no sense in arguing over something for this many pages. The point was made on the first page of the thread. I paid for any issues I received of the SDJ as well as the copy of your book. I agree if people can't make money they won't go through the trouble of trying to put out content. On the flip side people have the right to get what they pay for. I was simply trying to put the thread to bed. At the end of the day if you don't have someone with real experience in these dogs to help guide you all the books in the world won't save you. Reading and comprehending are two different things.

dpitbull,

With over 2,000 members subscribed to this site I hardly think 70 comments is to many pages of arguing, as you call it. Especially if there are members who didn't get it on page #1 and who will likely not get it if the debate made it to page #100.

And just in case you are unaware, the moderators are the only ones who make the decision to close a thread.

I think Jack has brought up many good points as to why changes are necessary to be not only successful in your plight, but to protect the work you have painstakingly put together.

Yes, you get what you pay for, and if you are spending your hard earned dollar to the SDJ, and several knuckleheads are bootlegging it for 1/3 of the cost that should bother you as well.

You would think any normal rational person would get that?

We all have opinions you're entitled to yours as well as I am entitled to mine. I feel stating the same thing over and over is a waste of time. Even Jack said that he was done trying to reach Eneas.

And just in case you are unaware, the moderators are the only ones who make the decision to close a thread.

I don't mean close a thread literally. Obviously I am not a moderator so I can't close a thread. I was reiterating to Eneas he had made his point.

I agree he has made his point about piracy. I clearly stated that

I agree with this as well. I definitely don't want to pay for something that is being given out for free.

You would think any normal rational person would get that?

Again I don't see where I have argued against the points Jack or anyone else has made. So to state again I don't disagree with anyone on this threads ideas. So not sure I see the reasoning behind dissecting my post. You make it seem as if I had argued against Jack's responses to Eneas. I have not I made it abundantly clear I agree that piracy is wrong. I also made it clear that I think that the sdj has the right to change it's policies at any time.

No, there's no misunderstanding: you've very clearly announced that you're one of the lowlifes that would pay a thief less, and rob a creator of his just profit for all his work in making the creation to begin with ... because you'd buy the bootleg for cheap, and reward a thief for a right-click of a mouse, rather than pay the full price to the man who's rightfully-owed his profit for his real time + efforts.

Where did I announce this? If you don't mind post a quote where I said anything about buying a counterfeit copy of anything.
