I'm wondering about the project's position on supporting cracked clients, no authentication, and means to by-pass the IP owner's means to collect a few bucks.

Now that MS owns Mojang and Minecraft, I suspect that they will start a clean-up of all the illegal and illicit stuff. I should think that we might want to close this hole.

Well.. vanilla also supports cracked-clients, so I don't think it will be a problem.

There was an issue on GitHub from earlier this year about that.

Hmm. I don't think this applies anymore. Does the client still support a non-auth mode? Also, I think the popularity of cracked clients has only just started. More people are playing (mainly in Eastern Europe) with cracked clients and haven't given Notch or MS their $.

I think we should consider this. Seriously.

Yes, the client still supports offline mode AFAIK.

Quote:Ganz überraschend kamen die Aussagen von Persson allerdings nicht, ist er doch selbst Mitglied der Piratenpartei. Über mangelnden Erfolg braucht sich der Entwickler derzeit auch beileibe nicht zu beklagen, Minecraft hat - obwohl noch in der Beta-Phase - bereits fast 5 Millionen registrierte SpielerInnen, wovon rund 30 Prozent dafür gezahlt haben.

Quote:Quite surprisingly, the statements by Persson, however, did not come, he is himself a member of the Pirate Party. About lack of success, the developer needs currently and certainly not complaining, Minecraft has - although still in the beta phase - already almost 5 million registered players, of which about 30 percent have paid for it.

So the cracked client is from Notch, what MS is doing i don't know.

Sry for my bad englisch
