   Once again, Mr pirate, it is NOT the responsibility of the
copyright holder to go trolling for possible violations. It is the
responsibility of users to behave themselves. That is what you are
unwilling to do, that is why you lie like a politician in trying to
make your blatantly WRONG position seem right. 

   This "largest" Apple II newsgroup has managed to piss off a number
of legitimate developers and companies PRECISELY because of the piracy
and the idiocy of losers like you and Turkey. And yet you point to
their "presense" as if they must put up with lying SOBs like
you. Sorry, you jerks cannot expect developers and publishers to WANT
to be here out of their own free will and put up with such creeps as
you, rubywanker.

   There was no official announcement of wolfy here by anyone who
could speak officially, thanks to idiots like you, and your presence
is what is what's preventing MORE software from being made available
on the internet-- assholes like you do not deserve any of the hard
work of others, no matter how hard you try to steal all the time. It
is your presence that is offensive to developers, and so developers
are giving you and those who refuse to vote with either their feet or
with their public words against such thieves as you no new creating
back. Go away, thief, and do not disgrade us with your presence
anymore.

   Once again, you sidestep the issue: Appleworks in *all* versions
was commercial, and thus ANY copying without the express written
permission is illegal. It is the *LACK* of any actions to ensure
legality before anything was made downloadable that continually
demonstrate how you are hypocrites: claiming to be against piracy and
doing it all the more. Cut the crap, cut the excuses, you're a liar
that's too afraid to admit wrongdoing. Stop lying to yourself and stop
lying to us: you're promoting piracy, lying about it, and a cause for
people to want to leave this area.

   Get the hell out of the presence of those who obey copyright law,
and shut the hell up with your lies.
