Post by: Denial on March 25, 2004, 10:50 PM
Wow what kind of  idiot left a link open or something on your page at this page i found http://www.valhallalegends.com/default2.asp found cvs or whatever the fuck its called link which had the source to all your project & bnls SOURCE CODE FUCK YA NO MORE war3 bots on BNLS i have the bnls source code now I said Fuck You guys im releasing this to the public SO anyway someone wanna help me get a war3 bot running on non-bnls?

Post by: MyndFyre on March 25, 2004, 11:29 PM
uh huh.

[edit]
Observation 1: Release it to the public and Skywing can invoke copyright protection.

Observation 2: Your obtaining of source code wouldn't prevent clients from connecting to BNLS.

Oberservation 3: Whoop-dee-doo.

Post by: Eric on March 26, 2004, 12:33 AM
Things I immediately saw wrong with that screenshot:

1. "My Computer" appears in the status window of Internet Explorer in your screenshot. Usally when you naviagte through web directories the status bar will change...
2. The color scheme of file listings in your screenshot don't match the one's used by [vL].
3. skywing != Skywing
4. All uploads took place exactly 8 months ago, were intially added, and were revision v1.1. What about updates?
5. Why would the downloads of these files be located in the public folder? Or better yet, why would they even be listed online?

Would have made a decent April Fool's joke if you would have waited a few more days...

i find it funny how everything is 1.1 revision and 8 months old......
didn't yoni also help in the efforts in some of the scource code and files? so owouldn't yoni's name be in there somewhere? thats what i'm curious about.

it's probably a typical annoyance denial likes to pull off to try to look big.

I'm sure Yoni help, but that doesn't mean he has to commit it to CVS.  It looks like Skywing just committed whatever code for BNLSthey had at the time and didn't bother with it further; a sign that they don't use CVS(?).  This is of course assuming what Denial has posted is in fact real.

A few other things:

Not all .cpp files have accompanying .h files.

BotNet has nothing to do with BNLS, so why there would be BotNet.h and BotNet.cpp is beyond me.

The design of the window makes it look like he dragged an HTML file into the Explorer window, which is why My Computer still is listed in the status bar.  The Address Bar gives it away.

Ooh and I like this:

Yeah, fishy seems to be out to get attention and picking a fight. Ignore him. If having a dir listing of a vL cvs repository sitting on his hard drive makes him feel cool, good for him.

I've accounted for pretty much all of the web accesses to the repository, and I highly doubt that we'll see anything more than a file list leaked.

That doesn't make any sense Feanor. Denial hasn't been banned from the forum from what I can see. Also, "fishy" is posting on the BattleCenter forums. If it was Denial, why wouldn't he just be using his own name?

Ouch, I can't wait to see replies to that.

First, it's not illegal.  Making a bot is not illegal.  Yes, it violates their EULA, but that doesn't make it illegal.

Secondly, as soon as somebody writes software it's copyrighted unless they state otherwise.  Stealing software = copyright violation.

I welcome somebody else who knows more about this to reply, though :)

Exactly.  And I would contend that for each copy of the software you buy, you are buying a separate, distinct agreement.  My clan funded my purchase of a second CD key, so we could leave a bot on 24/7.  If I am violating the terms of use on that key,  then they have the right to deny me service, as I am in fact violating their terms of service agreement.  BUT -- they can't deny service to my other key(s), and I can just as well go out and buy a new key.

That is correct, iago.  Any work is copyrighted immediately upon the writing -- it doesn't even have to be published.  You can register your copyright with the US Copyright Office, but if you can prove that you wrote something, and someone else stole it from you, your case depends on how well you can prove that it is yours.
Title: Re:I OWNED VL
Post by: Maddox on March 28, 2004, 03:37 PM
The thing is, the reversed Warcraft 3 code is copyrighted by Blizzard so any attempt to use it on BNLS is infact, copyright infringement.

The point I was making is that you can't reverse another company's code, call it your own, and copyright it.

Post by: Telos on March 28, 2004, 04:16 PM
Actually there is considerable leeway granted people with respect to reverse engineering.  In this case they arent making a competing product so reversing the logon in order to emulate it is perfectly legal.

The reversed code is still copyrighted by the original creater, so I doubt Skywing could say that the war3 logon part of the BNLS code is (C) him and therefore anyone using it is infringing upon his copyright.

I was asking Denial, not you  :P

But even so, would you feel safe if everyone in the world knew your social security number, your bank account and the associated PIN number, your date of birth, and your parents' full names? Just those together could screw you for life if put in the wrong hands.

Use your SSN to do things in your name. If people ask for your date of birth or your mother's surname as confirmation that you're who you are, then they've got it. Also, with your bank account information(s), people could withdraw a fair amount of your money (if not all).

Of course, you could go to the police with all this, but it's still a BIG hassle if it happens. My mom had this happen to her a few years ago when her purse was stolen, and we're still feeling the affects of it.

Well, assuming everyone in the world could get access to yours, you could get access to someone else's, and steal things from them.

Money doesn't HAVE to be left in the bank, so if everyone knew your bank code you could just withdraw it and close the account.

As for the parents and date of birth, the easiest way to prevent that is to make a good password that you memorize, or when it asks for your mother's maiden name put one of your more common passwords or something.

The thing is, the reversed Warcraft 3 code is copyrighted by Blizzard so any attempt to use it on BNLS is infact, copyright infringement.

The point I was making is that you can't reverse another company's code, call it your own, and copyright it.

You have it backwards, Maddox.  Reverse-engineering, involving examining how a product works and implementing it yourself, is legal.  Using the original source from Blizzard would be illegal, because it would be copyrighted.

If worse comes to worse you could say a little green leprechaun told you, then plead insanity, or intoxication... I wonder how well that would work?
