Hey people,
My site just got busted for using vBulletin (It was the GSYN Nulled).
I have no idea how my host found out, I barely have any members...
And my site is dead...
This is all they said in the e-mail:
It doesn't say vBulletin contacted them, so I think it's just a tip off to the hoster via their forums...
I'm indulging them and removing my forums, and I'm thinking of switching from them anyway.
The moral of the story is, don't pay for vBulletin!
In the UNLIKELY event that you get caught, you get sent a nice letter

I wonder if using GYSN KeyGen version would make it harder to find out?Hello,
