Biggest threat to the SOW series

[352nd Persecutor]

I voted in that poll. I'm an honest citizen. I own FOUR copies of IL2, from the very first version to the latest 1946 DVD. And I have always used a no-CD crack. On every game and every piece of software I own. And I've got a lot of software (including both Titan Quest and Immortal Throne).

I resent the implication of software houses that purchasers of their software are "dishonest" and must be "disciplined" by copy protection schemes. I'll go out of my way to defeat every one of them on software I've purchased, as a matter of principle, self-defense, and independence. I've felt that way from the first copy of dBase I ever bought to the present time, and that opinion is not likely to change.

I don't fly Lock-On, although I own a copy of it. Secure-ROM will never be on my system (it's MY system and I get to make the rules!). Likewise several shooters I have purchased that I will not play.

So be it.

Bring on SOW. I'll purchase and fly it too, and I'll search out and find a No-CD crack and use it. Unless it is protected by Secure-ROM or a clone. If so, it's "bye-bye", regardless of how much fun it might be.
