Hi Daniel, I didn't say they talked about it on mailing lists, per say, it is just a well known fact that these cracked games get passed around by word of mouth and through private channels. Not to mention the information isn't that hard to come by if you know the right listers to ask. The Draconis games and my games have been designed to run on any machine provided you have a valid license so it is not a big surprise people are passing around valid keys as cracks. However, should I discover one of my keys being passed around I would know who gave out the key and could sue that person for piracy. Other games like the games built upon the GMA engine have been cracked through a vonerability in the GMA registration system. It isn't public knolege as far as I know, but I have tried the crack on my own licensed games to see if it worked and it cracked them every time. So I know it works, and it is sad people spend there entire life looking for security vonerabilities instead of working to pay for the games instead.
