DEMO MCz Blargh joined my game and right up front asked me for my code. He didn't even care about who I was. Anyway, I think it was disgusting. Has anyone else dealt with this?

I doubt there are many people out there on computers with internet connections who simply have to have the full version of pop-pop, but won't be able to eat because of a $25 registration fee. A lot of people are greedy, and willing to make a few extra bucks, even if it means screwing someone else over. If they are happy with that, good for them, but there are others who choose to adhere to some basic moral guidlines. Me, I'm just happy I can afford the 25 bucks, because otherwise I'd be in jail now for sneaking into Ambrosia's offices at night in a ninja costume and searching for a registration code.

That dude bugged me about my code too.
Apparently, his IP is 209.209.18.52......

As if someone who legitamately got their code would choose to give it away to some random beggar. (Rodney Dangerfield) No class I tell ya! (/Rodney Dangerfield)
Had two or three players asking for one over the last couple of days... can't remember who, one even quit immediately when I typed in 'No'... Wouldn't it be nice to have a false reg code that blocks the game?

I do really think it is a cool gesture to be going after software pirates, but it has been made clear to me that we can't be flaming people on the web boards. I do agree, that these people are wrong. You know they are idiots when the are asking me, a moderator, and avid shareware supporter for a code. Still, we do have to be civil, and that is why I am locking this thread. Thankyou for your concern.
