FOF License Question
Alright...so I just had to reformat my computer. Last time I did this with FOF, I saved the receipt.txt file so I had a copy of my license key and all that, and used that to reinstall the game (I know you are supposed to unlicense and all that, but I found that out after the fact) Anyways, when I reformatted this time, I forgot to save that file. So right now, I have no copy of my old license. I wasn't the one that originally purchased the game, a buddy from another league did and we went into together and each got a license. Is there any way that I can get a copy of my license back or am I pretty much SOL (unless I buy another license)?

I ain't touching this one. But you need to be a man and buy the game yourself!!!!!!!!!
|
Holy hole in a donut, Batman, it's a cheapass!

Okay, I think I understand so far... Quote:
Here's the part I don't quite understand. What makes you think there is any such thing as your license? Sounds to me like you paid your friend a few bucks so you could pirate off his license. I don't think you own anything. Just buy the game. |

So, a license that allows us the convenience of playing on 2 of our own computers has been interpreted as a license for 2 people to install on their own computers? It is this kind of crap that will get licenses restricted to 1 PC, which is a very bad idea. The price is well worth the years of enjoyment you can get out of the game. Just buy 1 for yourself.

Suspended for a month. This is a little different, since he wasn't actually asking for a license, but this is a clear violation of the agreement.

As if the FastFL had any eyes left to be blackened...

Caught somebody cheat at FastFL.

It may be worth joining the FFL just for the UIC factor...

I'm trying to conceive of how this might be true. Hmmm... uh, nope.... Oh, maybe....uhhh.... nope... Nope, sorry... just can't do it. |
I unknowingly made a deal with the devil once. That dude is a total prick.

Hmmm. The proper response would have been, "I'm sorry I was trying to screw Jim out of some money and will buy a full license now."
|
you guys are brutal.
|
Oh my goodness, I can't believe what happened to that league in a matter of months. I feel bad for WrongWay and the gang, who simply wanted to play a complete season.

I really don't think so... Quote:
This sums it up -- the games I like lend themselves to electronic distruibution. I like that medium, but frequently want to install more than one place, just for my personal use. Currently e-licensers let me do so. More evidence of crap like this, and it increases the likelihood that people like me will eventually have to either settle for one installation, or else purchase multiple licenses. |

I didn't say he was right, or everybody was wrong. I just thought that there were some brutal comments and chastising. |
dola:
What about the other guy that gave him the license? Is he a member here? |
Quote:
The Good news is I think there is no way I can possibly be blamed for this one. :) |
Wow. Just wow.
|
i remember the old days. the excuses were pretty lame. pretty blatant. i give the guy credit for creating his excuse.

FOF License Question II
FOF License Question II
So, what do you, or anyone else, do if you spot someone selling their "Spare" license like on ebay or somewhere else? Would this be illegal? I have seen the old Disc's on ebay, but never a digital license. |

Report it to Solecismic so they can contact Ebay and get the auction pulled? |
And, it's definitely in violation of your license agreement to sell your "spare" license.

i would have to assume that you can sell a digital download game with all licenses on ebay. however, there isn't a way to stop people emailing each other and working a deal out. i haven't seen any fof games on ebay for some time. |
You can't make this crap up. LOL
|
I think the worst was some clown who, back in the days when I was mailing everything out, claimed he didn't receive his copy. This was before I had delivery confirmation on every sale, so I had no choice but to send him another.
A few months later, the original was on eBay. The guy was stupid enough to include a picture of his receipt with his name on it. So in the next patch, I disabled his registration code. |
