With all due respect to NukeEvangelist, who does a great reporting job on phpnuke sites, the Nukekorea.net site that he promotes is very misleading and corruptive. It states that if you subscribe for $ that you will have access to privileged downloads for six months, so people subscribe, giving the Nukekorea.net money but they do not get anything in return!
Nukekorea.net use to be a good site and had some great phpnuke development, but now it seems to be a scam to collect money without giving anything in return.
If you are like me, I was taking NukeEvangelist's advice, but he has made a mistake by promoting a site that is stealing money from people. If Nukekorea.net was to be honest, they would have taken down the site awhile ago.

I imagine that NukeEvangelist is not aware that people are being ripped off. I think this is more between you and the owner of the website rather than NukeEvangelist. A private forum with the website's owner would be a better place to handle your grievance.
Personally, I think that selling someone else's work without permission is dirty business. There are alot of websites that sell my own applications (or sell the ability to download my applications) with no compensation or credit to me. Lovely. Cashing in on someone else's blood, sweat, and tears is just plain rotten. As rotten as the GPL license that allows people to do that and get away with it.
Your first mistake was paying some schmuck for something he got for free.

The point of this post was to make NukeEvangelist and anyone else who frequents this site to be aware of what Nukekorea is doing. They are getting an average of 5 new people joining a day they need to be warned before they make a mistake. This is the place to make this post!

When ever we add anything to a website, whether it be code or pictures or graphics, etc. we risk the chance of being wripped off. You either take the risk or you take the precautions to guard against or you don't share it, you have a choice.
It is very hard to know it something you are downloading, purchasing or whatever is stolen from someone else.
This post was to educate people before they make a mistake. The place to do that is to the public that you are trying to protect NOT in a private forum so that others get wripped off as well!

Did you try to settle your differences with the website's owner before you began slandering it in public?
No, this is not the place to handle your dispute. All we can see is your side of the story.

If it's for PHP-Nuke, it's GPL. You paid to download something that's free. What was your first clue that you were being ripped off?

DUH!! I am NOT airing my dispute!! I am meerly warning others of a crooked site. I never paid them a dime ... just trying to keep others from doing so. There are many posts on Nukekorea's website airing their views, and they claim they wrote to Nukekorea and never received a response.
Did you ever write to him for ripping off your codes??? You sound like you are taking out your frustrations out on others instead of going to the source!
