Unfortunately, this will be my last update to the SourceMod version of KAC.

I will no longer be using SourceMod.

This hypocritical bullshit over GPL license has gotten out of hand. Asherkin himself released closed sourced binaries when he is required by GPL to release source code. And this has been going on for months.

Just to note. KAC is not dead. I will just find another avenue to release it in though.

I would recommend all would-be developers to avoid SourceMod, you'll save yourself a ton of trouble.

Where? I'll happily correct the situation, not that I'm aware one exists.
I will no longer be using SourceMod.
If you know (or a willing to learn) C++, MM:S is a safe platform for server plugins that doesn't have the GPL requirement.
Despite everything that's happened, I have no problems with helping out if you're interested.
The only reason I never offered when you posted your 'looking for developers' announcement ages ago is the time commitment, I code only in my free time.

I was told by other that you do it sometimes. Regardless, I didn't check it out for myself as I was banned from AM forums anyway.

Right now I think I'll avoid AlliedModders work like the plague. Everything about AM just screams "stay away" at this point. First that big problem over me asking for donations. Then this all happens within 30 minutes of me releasing a hotfix.

I'll make a full plan on what I'll do later. But at this point in time I wish to rest and relax. This issue is frustrating to hell because some people just annoy me to death since they wish to jack my code.

Also, I never violated GPL license. You might wish to review what the license states.

As long as there's a way to get the source then it's fine ( in this case, simply asking would've sufficed) .. This whole debacle over a mere half hour of non-disclosure is ludicrous.

So instead you chose to just slander me?
Please, since you seem to have worked out you can logout and view the board since you quoted databomb, could you try to find where so I can resolve the situation asap. Or at least tell me who told you so that I can resolve it with them, I don't want someone going around saying that.
Also, I never violated GPL license. You might wish to review what the license states.
Both dvander and Fyren have quoted the GPLv3 when questioned about license issues with plugins, which is you were clearly in breach of, as Fyren pointed out on the bug report.
http://svn.alliedmods.net/viewvc.cgi/tr ... =sourcemod
Also, what databomb said about only having to provide it when asked, you need to include an offer for the code at least, not just ignore it.

I've just been told, and confirmed myself, that you've removed the Google Code repository.
Can you please tell me where I can access the current code for the binary you are distributing at http://www.kigenac.com/KACSM/1.2/kigen-ac-pub.smx
