I've had a licensed version of UBB for exactly 1 year. My access to the updates has expired.
Question #1:
Does anyone know if InfoPop considers it unethical to buy a new UBB for another address and by virtue of having access to the upgrade files, upgrade my old one at the same time?
I'd like to own another copy of UBB that I will be able to install on another site and really modify the day-lights out of it. My old UBB is version 6.02. Since my access to the upgrades recently expired, I have a choice, either buy a new one and gain access to the updates or buy access to the updates for my older version ONLY. It doesn't make sense that InfoPop would require that I buy access to the update for one UBB if I own another that includes one years access. Comments?
Question 2:
gaming.dimhorizon.com
dimhorizon.com (Already has UBB installed)
If I purchase another UBB...I'd like to experiment with it on gaming.dimhorizon.com
Then later, move it to an entirely different address. (Either netrush.net/com or earthrush.net/com)
Does anyone know if this is considered illegal? With all the discussion of licensed versions, I certainly don't want to do the wrong thing. I really learn alot from UBB Dev Network and would like to continue to do so.
Question #4
Here's the big one...
My original UBB resides at
Dim Horizon If I install a new licensed version of UBB on
http://gaming.dimhorizon.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi would that affect/damage/wipe the original dim horizon members?
(Right now I don't think so...but I need someone to confirm for me.)
I'm trying to have an experimental version of the UBB without damaging the original one on the same server. Ya know...a UBB that I can repeatedly re-install if I mess it up. Gotta learn sometime.
Thanks in advance for any help/advice.
Sorry it's so long-winded....

Tigger
