   Appleworks is STILL being sold new by Scantron Quality Computers
(v5.x) and other distributors for previous versions. The above is an
invitation to pirate, to steal, to rip off, and break the law without
warning the person that they're about to do so.

   If anyone was on the fence on this issue, Rubywanker has just
proven once again that he is a software pirate, one who supports
piracy and stealing from programmers. Couple this with his multi-week
hatefest of all the hard work given away for free in Wolfenstein GS
1.0 (tip: the bug's *still* in ROM and *still* Apple's fault, no
matter what his longwinded bullposts said), and you see that Jeff
Hurlburt (rubywanker's real name) hates the presence of Apple II
developers, ones who can and will call him on lies like this.

   Rubywanker has made his living off the theft of ideas and software
of others. If you want anything new, why should you tolerate his
behavior along these lines, and his mere presence? Continually remind
him that his slimeball behavior is tainting all of his words and that
he should go back under the rock and never post again, or change his
ways. 

   You cannot make peace with a mugger and a thief who is unwilling to
change his ways.
