Hurry and grab Nexuiz while supplies last!

[Mr.Carlyle]

Your "buy-it-now" purchase price reflects the cost of the CD-R, the software itself, and our time and effort in collecting, compiling, recording, labeling, and testing the software.

If I meet this guy I will beat him up and break his arms so he never can do such things again.

And now lets have silence so ai can tell us all how he really feels...

This software is released as OPEN SOURCE software, under the GPL license. Under the terms of the GPL (GNU Public License), I am a FULLY Licensed Distributor of this software, and as such have the right to sell this software, either on Ebay or elsewhere, and I CAN PROVE IT.

Let's all ask him to prove it. Show us the license.

Actually, he has every right to sell the game. Whether or not it's very ethical, well that's another story

He's still lying though for saying that it costs another amount.

Someone buy this, and then complain that it is NOT 100% photoshop compatible to get your money back

GIMP is good (well, its GUI is horrible, but otherwise it is good), but it can't be hard to make a PSD file in Photoshop that GIMP won't understand.

It's not that he's selling it that bothers me. He could sell open source stuff all he wants. But saying that images are (his) copyright, and that the software cost THAT's what's bothering me. I mean, if someone wanted to have open source on CD or whatever and was lazy enough to burn it themselves, please go ahead and buy it.

Also, being a licensed reseller of GPL software, is there really such a thing? Cause he's saying his a licensed reseller of "this software" (meaning Nexuiz), and I just wonder if anyone on Alientrap has given him a license to redistribute it (and get paid).
And far as "Fully licensed distributor" of open source software goes, one doesn't really need a license to redistribute it (if I've understood the GPL license right), you just do.

I don't like his style. But selling open source software is ok as long as don't sell the software, only the CD's, time etc.

Yes, EVERYONE is a licensed reseller of GPL software

Nexuiz is originally $40? as if ! now that's a damned lie everyone misses here

Yup, that's what I though (or more likely knew), so saying it in a way that he's "special" makes me wanna choke him.

I read that too, but the post was so badly made it made me wonder if he actually meant Quake 4 or Nexuiz. In my mind he was going for Quake 4 (thus making me think "Why the hell would you even bring that up? What has that to do with Nexuiz?") so I didn't mention anything about that here.
But yet again, he could have meant Nexuiz or Quake 4, the post is too bad to be understood clearly. But I am a literal person and literally it is Quake 4 he meant.

Bottom line, I bet he is some kind of a psychologist or shrink, playing with the words and the minds of people. But I don't fall for that stuff, I'm immune, I see right through him and what he tries to do.
