Saw this on HF
Under the GNU License that came with RSBot v1.9 & RSBot v2.0, and being used as a base for v4.0; its only right to keep it open-sourced.
4.0 being closed source was a violation of the original license, and as you look through the source, you will see it still uses parts of previous revisions not owned or developed by any of the current head staff at powerbot. The GNU stating that even if the source is modified or not, (v4 being a modified v2, is still covered by the GNU license), that anyone can redistribute as they please.
The GNU also states that users must have the same rights as the person who released (as in, Timer/Paris took v2 which was open source and covered by the GNU, therefore every powerbot member must also have the same rights and usage with v4 if released; meaning source and rights to also modify). There also is no licensing or copyright with the client.
Paris obviously refused to obey the GNU, failed to properly copyright it, and is now pissed.
You shouldve made the client from scratch, then you couldve copyrighted it properly.
I did warn you powerbot - dont fuck with me.
