Does anyone else appreciate the irony of a guy that sells mod chips complaining of his content being stolen?

I'm taking cover behind a wall....now.

As you know shallowgamer, there are legitimate uses of modchips. Id much rather travel with backups than originals.

But notice I refuse to sell chips for anything remotely current that might in any way hurt income for current developers. I also don't distribute actual copyrighted content.
Nice try though ;)

Also, notice, I'm not pitching a royal fit -- I just like to throw these things out to the crowd to see if we can annoy him if nothing else.

I tried post a comment on one of the posts, but it wouldn't take.

I'm guessing he's pulling straight from an RSS feed, so it's all automated. The practice is actually quite common. It's just annoying really. It not like he's stealing traffic or anything (although he is using my bandwidth on the images)

Especially when you're putting games out for the general public to play at Cons.
Don't exactly want someone walking off with a real copy of Guardian Heroes or Radiant Silvergun.

On the bright side I'm getting a number of backlinks and commission links in the process, but I still wish these spammers/thieves would drop dead.


Methinks you posting this might give him the biggest bump in page views.

Less concerned about it at cons, my security system seems to work well.

Well, no offense, but if I really wanted to, I could beat your security system.
I might not get the case, but I could steal a disc that was in the console if I played it right.

Not the new one. Unless youve got a screwdriver in your pocket at all times and have a great distraction planned.

I forgot to tell yall about that, alittle trickery and woodwork on my part recently just incase.
