it is not only the fact that he HAS a banlist, but also that our big 'uber-noisemaking' friend Mike Hambly is on it

it's the one of the few big names i can find on that list, together with Shigeru Tanaka...

and he WILL upload things repainted by the 'deLuca' guy...

You can contact Ferdy here:

ferdy@fsplanet.com

I can't comment constructively on the state of proceedings at present. Too many ifs and buts dependant on replies I'm still waiting for.

Put some pressure on it, the previous thread already is down to page 8 of the FS2002 forum so no-one pays atention to it.

The only way to stop it at this moment is to get yourself on his banlist. The way how to do it is quoted in their 'privacy statement'

When i'm gonna make addons they are going to be released only when this pest is removed.

Ferdy has no influence on the first class thing, that's done by Mondadori.
And FSTipster tried this already (and some others) without ANY success.

The only thing you can consider now (and I admit it's a loss for the community) is to drop ALL support for that pirated addon, and let it be removed from the other (and your own) sites until FSTipsters legal action has any succes.

You forgot Dan's and my name on that list. We fought against him with out BH's and IL-76's. We have also gone into legal proceedings. I just think he's a scum bag and a disgrace to the flightsim community. I had this little (not really little lol) chat with Ferdy over MSN (forgot his MSN email because he blocked me). BUT I saved a transcript of the entire conversation. You get a real look into his mind on this. If anyone wants it please go here http://www.tlukdesign.co.uk/erik/ferdyconv.htm ; As you can see on it he goes back a few times, and I hit him on alot of stuff, lol you gotta read the ENTIRE thing.

- he evades the discussion.
- he dumbly quotes a random freeware EULA
- he doesn't (want to) know that there are more forms of freeware than only the GNU license
- he says: 'a program is freeware when you have access to the source' but how can you have access to the source of an addon while the main program has NO access to it's source AT ALL, meaning that the maker of the addon has spend loads of time to get his FDE right by following the guessowrk of others

The only goal for Ferdy is to piss off any addon developer who does not adhere to the GNU freeware license... while the license agreement of his site DOESN'T PROVIDE ANY OF THE FREDOMS THE GNU LICENSE PROVIDES

Blade,
I just read that conversation you had with dipshi...er that guy and he should come to the USA and run for a political office. I had to get Toilet paper to wipe off my monitor from all the bullcrap this guy was saying.
Well, what comes around goes around.

according to this you're not the only one complaining. according to my crappy french AVSIM has blocked his IP for downloading.

but ATM his site (both the access by dns and by ip) seems to be down (15:53 Amsterdam Time).... cheered too early, only a damn DNS hiccup
