Looking For F.E.A.R. Version 1.4, No CD Patch. ;)

[IAMCANADA]

Hi Luciel,


Thank you very much for your response Luciel,
I really appreciate it.

I feel that by using the image rather then just
using a No CD Patch, I am making purposeful
changes to my computer just to circumvent
the protection of the program instead of just
using a No CD Patch.

Hard to explain, however if you bought the
Legally store bought F.E.A.R. CD's. It is your
right to protect those CD's, by making a
backup copy, however if there is no way to
make a backup copy because of the copyright
protection, a No CD Patch is the only way without
going way out of your way to circumvent the law.

If I am just using a No CD Patch with legal CD's,
all I am doing at that point is protecting my CD
set of Disks, and I do not feel I am circumventing
the law in any way, I have no intention of breaking
the law.

I would like to say thank you very much to the three
Moderators (cdkiller, Joe Forster/STA, & Luciel) who
have responded to my post, since this is my first time
posting here, I am very impressed with how I have
been treated so far.

They have treated me with courtesy, patience,
and respect, I am very grateful to all of you for
the way I have been treated so far, thank you
all very much again for this treatment, it is
greatly appreciated.


Take Care,

IAMCANADA

If you were located in the country to your south, it's the nocd's that would be legally dubious since I'm pretty sure that they clash with the DMCA. Compared to that, there's not really a legal argument against making an image for your own use, or making a straight burned copy (clone or not), once again as long as it's for your own use. So if you're worried about the legality, images are a better bet (as long as you own the original ofcourse)

Haha took some time for people to figure out the bot thing...

Funny nonetheless and I guess we could have some long conversations here with that bot..

[Joe Forster/STA]

Huh, what?! Is it you, kosmiq, running a bot?! I'm totally confused... He's definitely answering the questions and, perhaps, it's only the usual not very polite or sometimes downright rude style of this forum that makes such polite posts so surprising...
