Subj : Re:Cherokee's Photon Script To : All From : SupGx Date : Sun Jan 05 2003 09:59 pm Wow, I sit in amazement reading these posts. To me something like this is unacceptable for a public script author to do without documentation. Even with documentation it's pretty lame. For people to say that they have no problems with this puzzles me. I take pride in writing good scripts the work for anyone, and if I ever lower myself to filtering myself out of an offensive script, that'll be the day that I'm done scripting. If I personally found out that I was using a script that was crippled in this manner, I would never use and encrypted script from that author again. I find this a cowardly act and Cherokee should be ashamed. I have removed the script from www.twtavern.com per Cherokee's request.
