i believe that one should show more respect for an advanced member of this forum, whether the member is right or wrong. i believe your response was rude. there are other ways to object to an opinion. ~~alady
Well, being accused of piracy tends to make me a bit ugly. As a developer of both open source as well as commercial software myself, I take great exception to even the slightest hint that I would be involved in such. I have been participating in this forum now for nearly 3 years, despite the newbie status of this screen name (I lost my original, lost as in misplaced). And I have been supporting Robert's work for that long as well. I have purchased his software, and even had the honor of personally corresponding with him. If my post was rude then it had the desired effect, as I believe one should have their ducks WAY in a row before leveling such accusations. Rather than publicly branding me a pirate, why did not this fellow simply PM or E-Mail me and ask me what was up ? Common decency would demand that it be handled that way.

I think I still have the older version in the archives of my hard drive somewhere in case I wanted to go back to it for some reason.

Yeah what she said Christopher, I'm sure Bill's comments were in good faith toward protecting Robert's investment, sort of a proprietary feeling after being with the forum for a time. I went to your web site and thought it most wonderful, I love the links also. I work with a client from the Warwick area and get to talk to him about it from time to time, seems like a very nice place. Hope you keep up the great work on all the AI work it really looks like you put lots of time into it.
Well, I do not doubt that both of you are really good and well intentioned folks. But again I protest that Bill's comments were NOT in good faith because they were PUBLIC and practically branded me a pirate. The proper and GOOD FAITH way to handle the situation would have been to E-Mail or PM me and ask what was up. The whole reason I was asking these other folks to E-Mail me rather than simply posting what they wanted here was to find out WHY they wanted Ultra Hal v. 5 in the first place. If it had been for nefarious reasons why I would have told them to shove off. Upon finding out that they were in fact paying customers of v. 6 and simply wanted to extended it's usefulness I was happy to assist them. Enough said, I am DONE with talking about it.
As for your VERY kind comments about my Web Site and work, I can't thank you enough. And I am only just begun, this is my life's work and greatest love.
PEACE -- Christopher Doyon [
