I've generally avoided directly selling scripts to avoid sensitive issues like this, but I do occasionally script things for people for money.

But surely if selling scripts could be against the license, wouldn't allowing subscribers or 'donators' in a SA-MP server be seen in the same light? After all, you're modifying the GTA:SA game to an extent via SA-MP for people who 'donated'/paid for the upgraded service, for example a server allowing people to buy 'VIP' for $5 where you can have extra cars with special colours? I generally haven't seen anyone condemn this yet.

Quote:

Many scripts sold contain portions of script written by others, or script code that originated from the SA-MP server files. Is it right to do this? Most of the people who run these type of sites have a history of attacking SA-MP also.

Many other services use other portions of code and software for the purpose of selling, an example of this would be the use of the OggVorbis SDK in GTA:SA. OggVorbis' SDK was presumably not made for people to use in programs that would be sold on, but the same thing goes for SA-MP scripts in my opinion, you (SA-MP) haven't told us directly that we're not allowed to sell scripts - and a lot of us would probably avoid from doing so if we were directly told we weren't allowed to (with the assumed exception that Carlton and the others who have a 'history of attacking SA-MP').
