Sams3D - You said: "I don't think Guitta was accusing anyone of theft, just notifying them that they may have an illegal copy." Gebe specifically stated: "This means that you have an illegal copy of Vue." She may not be accusing the person that THEY stole it but that it was definitely an illegal copy nonetheless. This is not as you say "Only resonable deduction." It would be reasonable deduction only after everything else has been ruled out and there are apparently several other explanations - as MightyPete suggested above there may be other factors at work. My point is, no one should accuse someone of having an illegal copy (stolen or not) without first exhausting ALL possibilities. Gebe, did you ask him which version of Poser he/she is upgraded to? Exhaust ALL possibilities BEFORE condemning. perhaps he/she was given an older update? Who knows? But ask FIRST! You are the forum moderator and I have seen that you are generally much more even-handed. My reason for my diatribe is that I have been accused of using warez - I DO NOT appreciate it when I purchase software and go into a forum asking questions and are then accused of using an illegal copy because someone jumps to conclusions. I doubt it that anyone would like that. Choosing WHEN to say something and HOW it is said is VERY important.
