It is my profound displeasure to have to announce that the blight on the TI programming community know as Hays Games has once again poked its head out of the ugly mess of their swamp of stolen code. As Frydsoft put it here, "Hays Games Co. is the echelon of everything that is bad about the Ti-Community. they lie, they cheat, they steal. they do it all. they like to make enormous claims about their software when they know that it is crap. They also have a thing for bashing top programmers in the Ti community, such as Bill Nagel, Joe Wingbermuehle, and countless others, and spread Propaganda all over the place accusing them of everything they do, and more. But their biggest thing that they are known for, is their code stealing. These people take Code stealing to an unbelievable level. They steal code from websites, and will steal entire programs, label it as their own, and then proceed to proclaim how great their program is vs the same programs they stole from." This group has repeatedly been shut down by ticalc.org, Geocities, and many other hosting and archiving sites, only to reappear in another annoying form. Please see for youself - gee, that "Doorways" logo looks awfully familiar - here: http://www.geocities.com/haysgames/. Also please sign the petition to help get rid of them here: http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/nohays. If we can get 100 signatures, they say they will disappear. Please help with this community project.
