i joined this group because i was sure i was safe to try things that i cant afford to buy
There are a lot of things you can try before you buy. If you use the search function this board have you can find the unencrypted version of this resource. Feel free to use it to see its functionalities.
there is a lot of ways to secure your staff from lechers
We are open to suggestions. Alternative would be source guardian.
Now our point of view: this script ate more than $1000 in disabled licenses in less than 4 months. You cannot find it anywhere as everyone is afraid to share it just because of that. Almost all "latest versions" you can find on the www are fakes or they won't support updates as their licenses will be disabled the moment they share it.
Some of staff members have a copy of the code right before encryption.
Feel free to use any decoding service and take a look into the code. If you can find any backdoor/malware we agree to pay for the decoding services. There are only 248 files encoded in the whole script so it's cheaper to buy a legit license.
TL;DR - unless you decode the files yourself only way to get the untouched code is to buy it from developer. Which we suggest to everyone after thorough testing and if they decide it's what they want.
If we are forced to give the untouched code we will stop sharing this resource but we will keep supporting updates for the members that already have it and didn't finish their testing.
I hope this answered your concerns.
