Didn't say it's fair. Just understandable. If you use something for more than 25 years and are too greedy to give a couple bucks then that's worse than being unfair IMO.
- hellotomyrars 4y agoWhen I buy something I should get what I paid for. It isn’t greedy, it is a square deal. If you choose to remove what I paid for or at least put a passive aggressive requirement for me to email you after posting your sob story in order to continue to get what I paid for, that isn’t a a square deal. Look it isn’t that much money, and I’m sure the developer could use more, but the right thing to do is to grandfather those people in, instead of now guilt tripping them into paying more. You can post the appeal and explain the same way without suspending current lifetime licenses. It’ll do a lot more for goodwill than going the other way for it.
- dj_mc_merlin 4y agoIt's 25 years. That's enough time for him to have a child and have him take over the mIRC business. It's a solo dev working on a piece of software since 1995, cut him some slack, jeez.. You're right about the expectations placed on trade. I just expect a different set of requirements from large corporations and small devs.
