Yeah, clearly the developers of AMX Mod X have an idea of ethics unlike yourself.

And not everyone has such access, only ME, its developer, for various and obvious reasons.
And by default, people wasn't supposed to know that, this was hidden for obvious reasons too.
Only programmers who knows well about decompilation could that (and by attempt to looking for such stuff).
No luck for me, someone I hate did and took pleasure to expose that publicly.
It is horrible, and you already abused it. The only reason it's hidden is because you know even fewer people would use amxmod if they found out about it. You think you're the only one that has access, but as with all other backdoors there is always a risk of others using those backdoors, as if just you having it is not a big of a risk as it is.

So a such behavior which is, "thinking the other way", offends/shakes your minds hard! I know, I know, but just to be clear, this won't change for your satisfaction.
Now you're just trying to diverge attention from the real issue. You have a backdoor that gives you total control over a server, this isn't thinking outside the box or trying something different, that's just being a control freak. Why even bother publicly releasing it at this point, just run it in your own servers and be done with it. Either that or you need to rethink your approach and understand why what you're saying makes no sense at all.

There actually are. Not that it is legal (piracy is probably illegal everywhere), but in some countries such laws are not enforced. People are free to use pirated software, and nobody is taking action against that.
I live in such country, and I am not proud of it either. Even though I can use pirated software freely, I always try not to.

P.S. Sorry for going off-topic.

Just because it's not enforced doesn't make it legal as you have implied.

I've never said it is, I am aware it is illegal.

StevenKal what exactly do you think makes your AMX worth anyways?
Because you say "I support non steam"? AMXX can be used on non-steam very easily anyways.

You put this stuff in your mod, those commands, and you come here saying "I will continue doing this" instead of maybe (even if you're totally discredited now) trying to apologize and trying to maybe make up for it... idk maybe by stating you will remove those, or even better, opening up the code?

What kind of credibility you think you have as a dev now? Well, next to none is the correct answer.

Second, you "dev" that under closed source. What kind of value has this? Your final product will surely be less optimized than the AMXX counterpart. This wouldn't be the case if you had theoric software experience that would outmatch what AM devs have (not stating they are the best out there either, but they do have some), but I doubt you have. I would think you are pretty subpar as a programmer, more an amateur than a professional.

By opening your source at least you could make your product a bit better, as you would get outside support from people more experienced than you. It's not really hard to figure AMX will be outperformed by AMXX : more heads working on it, more expertise, open source model, etc.
Your product has no value against AMXX, it's a pale copy of it.

Had you done a new kind of system that provides, I don't know, maybe python-based scripting, that would make it stand against AMXX, and there could be advantages to such a system. But what you are doing is a mere copy. You're wasting your time on this anyways. The only logical conclusion to this is probably that you dev AMX only to have this kind of special control you granted yourself in those bins, and you probably copy a ton of shit from AMXX as well.

It's pretty shameful to see someone with this much coding knowledge lack any sense of morals.
I'm not familiar with AMX at all, but I had to read this entire thread and I second the movement to tell Steven to GTFO.

What kind of half-baked idiot would think doing this would be a good idea? That gigantic first post he did where he laid out his demands, admitted that he would use the backdoor to fuck with people's servers if those people disrespected him, and basically came off sounding fucking retarded (pardon my language) was just pathetic and a waste of my reading time.

Get lost Steven, ya cheeky twat.
