Anonymity is usually a good thing.
Yes, SEQ is a violation of the EULA for EQ. My interest in this board is more that the technology(packet sniffing) and game (PCEQ/EQOA) are related. Anonymity is good if you have something to hide, but that isn't the case here. We're not doing anything abusive or malicious, and we're being very open about what we are doing.

Moreover though, I'd never use your program. For one, it's closed source, so I have no idea what you're up to, and two, you *charge* for it, which is another reason I'm *sure* Sony will take issue with you at some point, because, again, they liability is too big.

You might have some luck selling it on ebay though, right alongside the "ShowEQ Box" sellers. :)
It sounds like you're very set in your opinion orenwolf, but I'll try to bring up some noteworthy points:
