Programmers: Ever have someone ask you for help with your software and... - GoFuckYourself.com

They were never supposed to have it in the first place?

How do people have the audacity to ask you for updates and help with software you coded, that they didn't pay for and were never supposed to have? Isn't that like calling Microsoft and asking for tech support for a cracked copy of Windows? hahaha

Anyone else come across pathetic losers like this?

Nope, but if you're selling software you wrote, please let me know

used to happen all the time to me. if it's a server app, code in a rm -rf as well as something to clean out their mysql and send them this special version. those are also fun to release to all the warez kiddies.

This allways happen. We do custom software, people will pay a fixed price, then say no when a support contract is offered, year later will get a call from them saying some thing is not working because they upgraded some thing etc etc.....its nuts and in adult world its worse.

If we ask money at that point (becuase we have to go back to the old code, it will be a developer by now etc etc) then they get upset.

Adult is one industry that dose not understand the basic bussiness model of software enginering. If I had a doller for every time i heard "My guy can do this in 1 day" i will be a rich guy
