| | Registration Information for RAIDER| | RAIDER Copyright (c) Patrick Ryan 1988,1989,1990,1991,1992| | ALL RIGHTS RESERVED| | | INTRODUCTION ============ First of all, Thank you very much for even considering registering Raider. Second of all, Raider has a new Owner, Patrick Ryan of Catts Development Co. All old versions and all New versions of Raider are the Strict Product & Ownership of Patrick Ryan & Catts Development Co. So you have just gotten a copy of RAIDER, and like it very much (Well, enough to shell out some money :-) ). You plan on using it for a long time, and since the UNREGISTERED VERSION doesn't bother you or your users you don't plan on registering. But wait, look what you are missing : Benefits for registered users: o Registered users receive the latest version of RAIDER on either 5.25 (360K) or on 3.5 (720K) inch disk (Or you could opt for a quick registration, and D/L the registration file from Halifax Wildcat!) if their version is not up to date. o Your BBS is entered into a list of boards running Raider. (RAIDBBS.TXT) o You are given my voice number for full support for any problems with RAIDER. o You don't have to worry about a user becoming irate about your blatant abuse of the SHAREWARE system, and thus ruining the credibility of your board. o You will not run the risk of being discovered in breach of agreement with Federal Copyright. A serious offense, to say the least. o You will be able to have access to more commands in Raider, as some of them won't work on Un-Registered versions. o You are given access to FREE Upgrades of Raider via any BBS that carries a copy of Raider, as the registration file that you will be given will work with any version of Raider. o You can set your own time limit for the game, not be restricted by 10 min. NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* NOTE* The perfered way for you to get your registration info is to call Halifax Wildcat! one week after you send out the request to me and download your registration file. This way you get a registered copy as quickly as possible. Besides, the mail systems can be hard on disks, and I can't afford to send it through registered mail (not without jacking up the cost to you). Since Raider is designed to use a serial number, the file to D/L is only about 1k long. If you don't want to do this for various reasons, you can skip this paragraph. If you wish to get your copy from Halifax Wildcat!, mark off the area called BBS Reg on the form. The file will be contained in the Halifax Wildcat! file section (Area ) called Raider Stuff. You will know which file is yours from the file description. It will be password protected through the BBS with your phone number in the format of xxx-xxx-xxxx. Just enter your VOICE phone number (The one you put on the following form) as the password, and you will be able to D/L it. A quick message to me or the sysop telling us that you received the file would be welcome, so we can delete it as soon as possible. I will keep an eye on who is getting their files, and will call if you don't D/L your copy in two weeks (to see what the problem is). Halifax Wildcat (902) 465-4618. 38.4 Courier HST, running Wildcat! Pro. WHAT IS SHAREWARE? ================== SHAREWARE is 'Try before you buy' software. This allows you the freedom to examine the software at your leisure before you decide to buy. Since there is no way to enforce this, SHAREWARE is often abused. I hope you can understand how much time and effort programmers spend on these things. Your support really keeps us going. We wouldn't be asking for money if we were rich. :-) Please support SHAREWARE. Please send $20.00 in cheque or money order (MO perfered,it doesn't bounce) to: Raider Registration c/o Patrick Ryan Po. Box 68 CFB Shearwater Shearwater NS Canada BOJ-3A0 Make the cheque out to Patrick Ryan, NOT Raider Registration. (The $20.00 can be in either US or CND dollars. I prefer your own currency. I am not responsible for any money sent through the mail, nor for safe passage of the Raider package.) Please fill out the following form, and send it along with the payment. --> ---- PLEASE PRINT CLEARLY ---- <-- Your FULL Name: ____________________________________________________________ Your BBS Name: _____________________________________________________________ Your BBS Number: (_____)____________ BBS Software : _______________________ Hours of your BBS : ___________________________ Max Baud Speed : ___________ Details / Features of your BBS : ___________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ Disk Type (Check one): 3.5 inch _____ 5.25 inch _____ BBS Reg _____ (720K) (360K) (Not Disk) (See Above) Mailing Address: _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ Home Phone Number (_____)_____________ Current Version of Raider __________ Comments, Suggestions: _____________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ I hereby agree to not give out my registration number to anyone, and will do all I can to keep it secret. I realize that allowing others access to the number can only lead to pirating of the Raider software which will hurt the development of the Raider program. I realize that problems can arise with the transport of the Raider program, and with the transport of the payment through the mail system, and that items do get lost or damaged, and I agree that the Author of this program (Patrick Ryan) is not responsible in any way, shape, or form for the loss or damage of the Raider registration package or the registration payment, although the aforementioned author will do everything possible to ensure a safe transport. __________________________________ (Sign your name here) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (This gets my butt out of hot water if anything happens)
