Hey there, i'm just wondering, can amxx plugins be decompiled? If someone have just .amxx plugin? If i made a plugin and someone wanted to decompile is posible this? I saw many things like decompilers or tricks to get over plugin requests. What do you think?

It's perfectly possible, but the code you'll get won't be a working .sma file. You can still see the entire code and if you're a scripter, you can easily figure it out and even make it work.

The question here is - why do you need this?

No i don't need something like this, i'm asking if i made a plugin and someone can steal my work,,, you know.. is not okay... so.. is no way to make it private overall?

If you made a plugin, you are required to share the .sma file of that plugin.

Sure it is. Never give the plugin to anyone.
But if you decide to share/sell your plugin then you must provide the SMA file. Distributing only the AMXX file is against the license. And since you must provide both amxx and sma it doesn't matter if plugins can be decompiled or not because why would you decompile when you have the source, right?
Selling the SMA file at a higher price than the AMXX file is also not allowed.
