Hi Guys,
I am the founder of OxyUltimate and sawing that people are using the pack without purchasing the product. You people are killing the developer's hard work. I also knew that same people are joined my group and silently taking the advantage.
But my eye opened on all the things. I tracking those people who providing the pack and violating the terms. This is my friendly reminder. Otherwise I shall terminate their account without any notice. So keep this in your mind.
Best

You shouldn't have such a negative view of piracy. Often it's a supply problem, not a buyer problem. You might want to ask yourself if you are charging too much for your plugin.
If you viewed pirates as potential customers instead of thieves, you could increase your customer base. Many people try before they buy, the number of people who steal and use things for free forever is incredibly low.
You could have a message with a server check "Hi there! I noticed your using a cracked version of the plugin. I can't do anything to stop you from running a nulled copy, but I'd really appreciate it if you could buy the plugin and support the development of OxyUltimate so that it can be the best Oxygen addon on the market".
Don't demonize users on this forum. You're leaving easy conversions on the table by trying to punish people. Turn pirates into customers, you win more people over with honey than vinegar.
Also, you should probably read some piracy studies. It increases sales, not decreases them. In a way, you should be happier the more popular your plugin gets on this forum. Being vindictive and punishing people who null your plugin is really not going to solve the problem. And it isn't even a problem. You can only benefit the more people use your plugin.
Going with the supply problem issue, you may actually want to offer a discount to pirates. A 15% off coupon if someone is using a nulled copy could encourage a conversion to a sale. Going the route you plan to go based on your original comment is just leaving a lot of money on the table.
You have a huge marketing opportunity to interact with people on this forum to encourage sales. Asking for feature requests and participating will get you much farther than threats. Try to make this a positive, not a negative.
