Shadow the Hedgehog is a bi-

Ok, but seriously. I have an announcement to make, and it makes me feel embarrassed.

I've pirated the game.

I did pirate the game. I'm pretty disappointed at myself. Now, don't get me wrong, I will buy the game, sooner or later.

Let me tell you the benefits on having the paid version of SimplePlanes.
1. It doesn't make you guilty, because you're sure, that you actually bought the game.
2. You're safe from any hackers trying to break into your accounts. Dunno why I list this, but there's probably a chance of it happening.
3. Your saved creations would not get deleted when updating the game. Creations would get deleted if the game is updated and pirated, due to the system not recognizing there was already a data in your phone. Or something like that.

Let me tell you a story about my experience.
I once had a glorious creation of mine I built on 1.10. It was an ADFX-02. I had a teaser for it in my YouTube channel. I was so confident to post it, I've made a cool teaser and stuff, and when I was ready to post it (this was when I had no experience on SimplePlanes.com, the ADFX-02 was built before my Su-35BM.), it bugged out. I didn't know if I had made the account at that time, but the pirated version I had just couldn't post it to the web. That, or I'm just dumb.

As a result, I deleted the game, and downloaded another pirated version. But the thing is, I haven't moved the .xml file to a file outside the simpleplanes file (I didn't know unlisted post was a thing back then, and also the reason above, so yeah) so I lost it in the process of installing another one.

So all of that work, days of hard work and going through tedious amount of processing, only to lose it at the last moment. I couldn't help but feel sorry for myself. As a coping mechanism, I built the Su-35BM. And it wasn't as good as my ADFX-02, but it works.

So what can we take from this? Simple. Don't pirate the game. Like I said, I'll buy the game soon. I encourage you pirates to actually buy the treasure.
