Yeah I think the email and wait part seems like more work for the dev ultimately and counterproductive to the point it looks passive aggressive. But I respect that he has opted to honor the life time licenses regardless rather than the jiggery of making a new version to “fake” honor the original commitment and get more licensing. Im frankly stunned so many people think the latter is more honorable than the former. For me I just use ircII.

> I think the email and wait part seems like more work for the dev ultimately and counterproductive to the point it looks passive aggressive. My first thought on that was that it was to add a delay to getting a new code and feed into the instant gratification to just paying up (if able and value paying again) and getting a new code there and then. Making a user email is "effort", low effort but still effort, which could disway some people asking for new codes. I also repect that they opt'ed to honor the license then opting to release "mIRC2" on new terms, I like you just felt that there are better ways to handle the process then the "email me and wait" option, which could lead them to recieve nasty emails during the process where an automated system could remove that (because while a user might be pissed off, its quickly resolved).
