While some customers and forum users coming from a history of being involved in piracy (either directly or indirectly) is not ideal, we do respect it when people put that behind them and start making a positive contribution here. Clearly we would take a dim view of continued involvement with piracy.
But the contribution here is often positive be that through helping with support, distributing their own add-ons or finding and reporting bugs.
That's a much more significant and welcome contribution than someone coming out of nowhere and trying to pile on a user who has somewhat demonstrated they're moving forward from their past involvement.
It's a shame some of the posters in this thread ended up lowering themselves to petty name calling. Nonetheless, I think this thread has long outgrown its usefulness.
