What is your problem? You don�t know me, and I don't know you. You are saying shit about me on the net, saying that I am a thief and you don't even know what you are talking about, and that pisses me off. I also noticed that you reposted something about the problem I had with someone else several weeks ago. Is that just so that you can try to show that I am a bad person? What is your deal? I am sorry if I offended you. You are wrong in saying that my copies are pirated, yes they are pirated if the buyer decides to keep them.. If someone buys my computer then they can do with it as they please, I am selling this computer as "USED" It was my personal computer, so I am selling it right off my desk. When I sell a computer that I am getting for a client, if it is used, I wipe the HD. I feel your attack is unwarranted. I think that your are heading towards a good point, but please don't take it out on me. I think you owe me an apology.
