I haven't back peddled once. I'm simply not involved with Icefire or CJOverkill. I still believe that Iceire did nothing illegal. Maybe his business ethics are a bit different from yours or mine, but I'm not one to tell him how to go about it. If we were still working together, I'd be backing him up in the same manner that I am right now. You might not like what he did or how he did it, but the fact of the matter is...he did nothing ILLEGAL.

When it comes to coding, modifcation is illegal unless the license allows for it. Re-writing is perfectly legal regardless of what the license says. Just because someone saw your script, found some bugs then wrote a new script with the same features plus some improvements doesn't make what he did illegal. There is nothing in your script or anyones traffic trading script that they can patent which means you can't sue him for using the same ideas or features.
Does it suck, ya for the most part. Because now someone has a better script then yours, which is never good for business. But it's been mentioned a dozen times before, start listening to your users, and make steady improvements, eventually the best program will win out. It is a business and regardless of whether you like what happened, the code is different enough that you are going to lose, so work on your script and forget about them.
Side note: I think traffic trading scripts are garbage and just fuck around the user, but I guess that is neither here nor there.

I was his partner at one point on some different projects. This is and was his baby. We both checked on our respective ends to see if he was infringing upon Choker and his TTT. In 3 seperate instances, Lawyers told us that CJOverkill did not. Choker says he won't waste money on a lawyer, probably because they'd tell him the same thing.
Choker can't do anything to Icefire, because he knows if he does, it will probably come back to haunt him. So instead he chooses to attack me. He has no basis for this attack other than that I supported Icefire and posted links to CJOverkill whenever trade scripts were brought up. He's just a sore loser...the kid on the playground that no one wanted to play with. This is evident in the way he acts out. With me. With Sleazy. With many others. When he doesn't get his way he attacks and calls people names. This didn't work in grade school and it won't work here.
Sharky hasn't told me to change my tune or act any other way. I'm still the same Candyflip who's been posting here just about every day for the past year. And...I'll continue to be. I know that it has brought in some business so far.
It would be best Choker if you accepted the whole story as Icefire and I have laid it out for you. Everything you've claimed up to this part has been proven to be wrong:
You say I'm a coder...WRONG.
You say that I stole your code...WRONG.
You say that I distributed it...WRONG.
You say that I'm still using it...WRONG.
All I did was egg you on because I think you're an asshole. It's fun watching you grasp for straws, because that's really all you've got left to stand on in this matter. This is GFY...that's a big part of the fun here.
Stick to your traffic. It's what you do best.
