RE: Microsoft requests 'Cloning' Plus! scripts to be removed
This is just a lot of c**p , or course they won't solve anything by doing this because not only the won't stop scripts to be downloaded (they just prohibited plus to host them) but they won't stop people from doing what they want, even less if all they want can be done by copy-pasting...
Either way this makes even less sense when you come to think that ANYONE who actually downloads and install a messenger script and learns how to use it ("/anything") has some degree of expertise (common users just don't to that on their own) and so it won't present a problem that the scrip is no longer here.
And even if they were to be common users I got 9,200 matches for "cex clone" on google (yes, with quotes), which means they will have to send those 9,200 emails and try and get an action, or even a response from any of those sites.
I haven't given any maintenance to my script lately and I wasn't making any money out of it, but it makes me mad that MS takes such an stupid decision based on.... well whatever they were actually based on, and sensurating the work of others, I'm a big MS fan, but when they do stuff like this it makes me wonder...
