Honors
gollark: I always enjoy receiving these friendly emails.
gollark: <@!160279332454006795> Please harbinge appropriately.
gollark: Your users probably fall into the groups of: would never pirate even if given the option (I doubt there are many of these given the context); will pirate it if it's easy enough (you may be able to stop these people, but they could also just track down a "cracked" build); never going to buy it legitimately (probably many).
gollark: 🐝
gollark: Just offer hosted cloud™ geometry dash instances which you are FORCED to use.
