Question about GPL and VIP

GPL:
I update the code whenever I feel necessary. No one that hasn't donated before should get any information from any resource. I don't care the current version can work or not. I don't except any user experience from universal users and I don't except any bug report for idiot and selfish user either. Anyone should not release thier code or update to public since they don't deserve to get it. They have to pay either money or mind to get so. If there is any post related about updated code or structure or offset in project's public forum, it has to be removed to privite one.

VIP:
Thank for you donation. I will keep you updated and workable code if you keep donation.

That's what information I get in this forum, am I getting wrong ?

The April 8 source is freely available. Feel free to fix it.

Jesus god damn christ.

You're a fucking idiot.

GPL = Open source code. If you want the current source code, you can have it. If you want FUTURE SOURCE CODE, you cant fucking get it, because it doesnt fucking exist yet. THATS what you should be getting from the fucking forum.

What people post on the VIP forum is NOT the GPL'd source code. It is modifications. Modifications have absolutely fucking NOTHING to do with it.

If you cant get that through your fucking head then go the fuck away. GPL does not mean it has to be updated immediately, and we're not hiding any source code from you. As I've said, there IS NO updated source yet.

Fucking christ.

If I sound pissed its because I am, and I've had to explain this every fucking day since the patch. The source code to MQ2 is NOT VIP ONLY and IS FREE. You can find the latest source code on the download page, and old ones from http://www.macroquest2.com/downloads/zips.php -- however, there is no source code release working with the latest patch. Not even in VIP.

VIP is granted for people that show gratitute for work that has been done already as well as work that will be done in the future. It is considered a prestige to be a part of it ..it's not a free 'pass' for an upgrade to everything that comes along afterwards.

See my posting on the end of this thread: http://www.macroquest2.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=11106
..for more of my thoughts on this subject.

Since this thread serves no purpose other than to piss off people, I'm locking it. These boards are for constructive discussion and for people to ask questions about MQ type issues. Wasting bandwidth on shit like this is lame. If you want to ASK what VIP means and what it entails, you should have done so.

It is not against any rules or anything for discussion threads to be limited. I could start an Amadeus' Board somewhere and make people pay to read it if I wanted. However, anything 'released' as a package of source ..will be made available to everyone. (Unless it's plugins only)
