ESO Launcher
So I tried to release a program I made that vastly improves ESO graphics on ESOUI like a week ago but it was denied because they wanted to see the source among other reasons, but I don't like people I don't know having my source for free. ;p
So I bought a domain and put it up for download for anyone who's interested: **Link Removed** Before anyone starts screaming "OH NOES VIRUS!", if you don't want to use it, then don't.. it's as simple as that. Don't start spitting out lies and slander before you even use it. Here are some before and after screenshots of it in action, which are also on the website: Before After Before After |
We asked to see your source because we care about what our users download.
In the rules that you agreed to when you uploaded your file, it says this: Quote:

Again, we care about our users and what they get from our site (even what is linked on the forums). This is a safe place. Now, your after shots look very nice. But, if you wish to host your application here, or link to it on the forums, you must play by our rules. :) /edit: I have chosen to post this all publicly, so that all may know our rules and guidelines and remember that we will always look out for them. |
Just to be clear, the reason I can't let you see the source for ESOLauncher.exe is because it includes a Helper dll which contains classes / functions that I use on other projects, one of which is a game server I run.
I don't know you, or anyone who runs your site so forgive me for keeping it secure. ;p I agree with your decisions, though... and will refrain from posting anything about ESO Launcher on your site anymore and will stick to other communities. |

Can't you just remove the "classes / functions that you use on other projects" and upload a clean version for us that dosen't contain things for I guess a "Privat ESO Server"? Woud that be to0 hard to filter out? |

But yea, I could... It's just that I'd rather not go through the extra trouble. |
The file:
1. Was obfuscated intentionally so that it effectively cannot be read, 2. Had suspicious API calls, and 3. Was detected by several antiviral heuristic engines as suspicious To be perfectly honest, I wouldn't expect anyone to trust a file like this. Would you not release the source code even under an NDA of some sort? Closed source does not work well in a trustless world. |

Here are some of our bona fides, all of which are publicly found and verifiable by anyone and everyone who cares to look:

As Seerah said above, we clearly state that if you want to release an executable on our sites, you may be asked to provide the source code so we can verify that it is safe. We also clearly state that we will remove that source code before releasing the files for download if so requested, to protect your copyright. Please note, however, that in addition to those statements is one stating that if we have reason to believe that you are deliberately uploading malicious files, we will not only deny it and ban you from the site, we will also report you to the proper authorities. |
