No, quite a few OCNZ members have their business advertised in their sigs. He was banned for posting in the BSE without having posted 100 posts (senior member).

Post links to the threads you guys are bumping :D

299917 2004-12-06 09:39:00 Well, I didn't load the software so I wouldn't really know.

The key is an FVTQC, so if you recognize that key it's probably not legit.

I bought about 15 of them, all identical several months ago and have sold all but two. I would *imagine* that it's legit, because it came from a company but yeah. Maybe corporate (legal or otherwise)?

I guess the only way to find out is to try installing it on another PC and see if it asks to activate or not... Which unfortunately I can't be bothered doing.

Having said that - there is no sticker of XP Pro on the side....

Anyway, trying to sell the thing wasn't the point of the thread :p. If you're really interested e-mail / IM me.

Cheers George

299921 2004-12-06 09:54:00 Do you think I would have been banned if I had have tried with 99 posts?

299924 2004-12-06 09:58:00 Thanks noone. I always feel welcome here :) george12 (7)
299925 2004-12-06 10:05:00 Another point of interest:

POST COUNT DOESN'T MATTER

Lets see - I have just over 5 times ninja's post count. Does that make my opinions 5 times more valid? And me 5 times l33ter? I think not!

Now in direct contrast there is Chill. With over 8,000 posts, is his opinion worth 10 times mine? Does he have 10 times the right to sell something? I think not (well... nearly :D). Of course, he is much more experienced and a mod, etc etc but the point remains....

What if someone had been lurking for a month, and knew the rules well... Oh no, he hasn't had 100 posts!!
