Guest r3d c0m3t Posted September 24, 2007 I've read a couple during my n00b days, but now they're all practically the same, save for a few variations or additions to here and there. In a nutshell it's all "Do this, do that. Don't do this, don't do that." I could be a bit hasty, but once you've read one, it does seem like you've read them all. Heh. This doesn't stop me from skimming over any of the new EULAs for whatever new program I'm installing, though. I'm not that naive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparkyftw Posted September 24, 2007 i have never looked. I trust companies... plus if something changes with a new program.. thats what add/remove programs is for. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
General Septem Posted September 24, 2007 I've never read them. Something about seeing a big block of text makes me forget how to read. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thasp Posted September 24, 2007 Never ever. EULAs, like warranties, rules, pinatas, and copyright law - were made to be broken. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suedenim Posted September 24, 2007 In the UK the EULA is useless - especially if you've bought a shrink wrapped game from a shop as you can't read the contract - "EULA" - until you've paid and opened the thing. This is bad (legally) and refunds etc., can't be denied unless the shop staff want to test your knowledge of our consumer laws. Not sure how this works on the North American continent but I'm happy to be enlightened about this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest r3d c0m3t Posted September 24, 2007 Most of the EULA's I've come across are basically telling you to safeguard yourself from what's "illegal", because spending money is always better than getting that same thing for free, right? Heh. Sarcasm. I think it's about time I stopped skimming over them because I've grown tired of read gigantic "TEXT" shown in like, 32 point font or some .. I'm not blind, y'know. PS - I'm not to blame for certain "sites" that allow me to get what I want without much hassle, I won't reveal any names, but I'm pretty certain a lot of us here already know of several.

boywander Posted September 25, 2007 No. Not likely to go against it whether for commercial or open source/freeware, though the latter are generally actually interesting and brief enough to read through. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
