mohannad_7 is flying high
Default an apology...

now i know that i downloaded a scamed version. and only a hobo said : "its only 18.00 $ ". i know that this is not very expensive but the reason is that we here in lebanon don't have mail and so i cannot use a credit card " don't ask people here about what a credit card means """"they don't really ever seen such things"""". and so its like a dream to get mail here and there is mail but just in beirut " the capital of lebanon". so you people outside lebanon : live happily and leave me in this ignurent dump that people call lebanon...

Mohannad, I can't even start to comprehend what it is like for you in lebanon. Sometimes we in the western world take so many things for granted. Good luck to you and keep posting

I really hope you dont buy this stuff after what he posted in that other thread? If you're that poor you wouldnt be online at all or have access to a computer. I dont by this sob story not after you insisted on telling people to dl that corrupt version of pro. Sorry, I am not that gullible. and if you were from another country then why didnt you say so or explain yourself? Im not buying this one bit. if you have a credit card in your country it has nothing to do with mail, you buy it online. No paperwork is exchanged.

Mohannad ... Please check your personal messages.

Spinx ... Mohannad is from Lebanon. It has always said so on his posts.

I have no idea what it is like to live in Lebanon and neither I think do you. It is never in the news, except I did see a bomb went off there yesterday, I get the feeling that this was not an isolated incident. I fear that Mohannad lives under the conditions that the word has seen so much of in New Orleands for the last few weeks ... but his country has been like for years, and with NO help from anywhere.

I think we need to open our eyes. Yes Mohannad did something wrong ... going on about getting his free copy of Limewire and you and I have been giving him a hard time about it. I'm not sure that in his world it's at the top of his list of priorities. I seem to recall that he has an "internet shop" .. perhaps it's an internet cafe or computer shop so I guess he has access to a few old computers, and that is his contact with the world.

So yes I do buy this stuff ... and we know so little about his part of the word becaue it is so hard to get comunications out of there. Mohannad is doing his best to, however, and the fact that he might not do it very coherently or tactfully does not detract me from my opinion that his heart is in the right place.

Nutcracker's post was right in every respect.

Its called 'Social Engineering' online. Sorry Hobo, I still dont believe his excuses for one minute. There's always the free basic versions. You dont have to go out of your way to download a fake/hacked version of Pro then swear up and down that it works and try to get others to download it as well, when he said he supposedly reformatted his machine five times and got a viruses then still insisted the version he had was ok.

He didnt state where he was from in his posts and you can put anything down in the location in your profile.

then how is he online with internet access no less and downloading off his fake version of Limewire? It cant be too much of a dump if he's able to do all that.

Believe what you want bro, but I'm still not convinced after arguing with me in his previous thread, almost insisting that Pro was free.

outtie.

how?
How do you pay for your internet connection? You must have mail if you're paing a monthly charge for an ISP, right? If you can afford to pay for internet access and are getting monthly bills for it then you can buy Pro the same way. If you get monthly bills, then you get mail.

can we like drop the entire thing? i really dont care if someone goes out and downloads a hacked/spammed pro version of any program. they lose in the end.. so eh? let those kind of people go. if they insist to do it. i just dont want people around here advertising it. solong as its not advertized around here, i really dont care. just keep your "pro" versions to yourself. if you really want the pro version, download the source, and tweak it, its really alot easier than google-digging. (but, if your smart enough to know how google works, you can find lots of limewire pro acc's BUT I AINT TELLIN HOW!)
