And without the help of my friends- Andreh, Oureveryday, Zeon, Kiri, Moj, Verix, and a certain guy :3, I would have not been able to do even 1% of this work today... let alone to think even near that 1%, Thank you so much for helping me, and becoming the first to make a detailed information of my hardworks and tests and information I gained from you and other sources, as this method has never been used or anything like this has been made; tho I will say things similar, some even advanced some even low level than this methods, have BEEN made, and was used by many big people and companies, I did not discover something new from scratch, I just combined, stripped to basic core, restructed, it remoddeled it and redesigned it to become a weapon of mass destruction or a weapon of mass knowledge, both can be done via this method, and I am happy I was able to make this method, but due to personal reasons I cannot work on it for a long time.

Exposing section

This is really IMPORTANT- I have come across a lot of people, and discord server, which are too greedy-but dumb-and rude... I will call out on all of them 1. Contrary discord server and it's staff 2. CrackWatch discord server and it's staff 3. Denuvo Vortex discord server and a countable people in staff (very less) 4. PUB discord server and a countable people in staff (very less)

The most common thing in these I found was, they will go to any heights to prove themselves correct, and are greedy asf

Lets go over with it serially- 1. Contrary This place earns like a HELL lot of money more than the game accounts they own, and the games they own, and their library of games has old games too, so you know sale is good for them, on an average estimate and manual calculations done by me they have earned more over than 3 times for each game and that also the best and pricey edition, so you know thats a hell lot, and kind off same for each game, of course they have it as donnation, and an attractive "life time" trap, some friends making donations and shits, and also let me tell you after calculating their income.. at that time(few months ago) if they would have saved for next game best edition and shared money in staff and saved a little for future, then also they money left can feed 20 fucking kids for a day. Now let's talk about language tone, they are crude, rude and abusive, they act cool but inside hate everyone, thinking piracy is a competition and business. Now the cool part, they will do anything to copy off and credit their hardworking staff ( which are arrogant beecuase they active other people... and thinking that they have all the information, stealing people's work, no full credits, fake mockery credits, bad language to fend off the allegations, and put all the info across various ai, and then encrypt every file and call it the best and it is closed source tools lol, their Janus, also steals depot keys and depots etc shit, their downloader logs ppl name and ips ), they are proud of what they do and try to copy every people and tell them the best.... and the best part they are janus themselves, these nincompoops, try to hate on hypervisor when rumours were high and couldnt make their own one, eveen with multiple people and multiple people using ai.... and even now they cannot and if theyy did they will obfuscate it ofc and put randomshits so its unsafe, and then hey put up a detailed video on their youtube related to hypervisor.... which is full of small and major errors lmao. And the main youtube video's titles are cracked, free, etc to bait views on youtube. And yes they support using steam tools, even build their own steam tools, or wrappeers of steam tools, and so many shits so yeah...

Crackwatch is a wanna be server with also paid activations only iirc and is partnered with contrary scums.
Denuvo vortex is good, but focuses mainly on donos and hevaily on it and it kinda plots against ADS and spreads rumours so... yeah that was a long time ago, but even if theyy changed... character is hard to change guys...
Pub these guys went againt ADS, called ADS so many shit made pdfs exposing ADS, bad works.... good thing? no lol they were just targeting and framing, ADS over the time has not only improved, but is almsot fully open source.. and as for cirno.dll they do tell you some info on it, and pub also copied a way to make same working as cirno.dll after saying no, normal gbe method is best.... i mean bro stick to one path...and they put up alot of fake claims and accusations upon ADS, which are hillarious mor than serious... I mean use brain for speaking atleast.. dont just vomit random shit...but this server's work is good, even ifwe skip thir fake tries to sabotage other servers, the main thing is the emphasis son free pub and premium pub as diff server.... again money comes in play damn...how much money do you want.

Speaking about ADS Anti Denuvo Sanctuary, I know and I agree the sttaffing is not te best but could have been a lot better... inspite of this, they run a big server, a lot of games, and acounts, and a lot of things to manage... and no scams, and all pure work and help... to people who are dumb as hell, they do ask for donations too... but i will say that god will punish me for saying "they ask", they never ask lol, they just have a bot if anyone wants to donate then sure, the best part no matter which staff u support or server, they make sure multiple times that its not imp and will even deny or force you to NOT pay, as much as they can, now before anyone says then why do they have dono page and in tickets theay say abt old dono and new dono even if its cheap as 1$ minimum? well the thing is they have a vast library of games, and a lot of accounts-aka tickets for a reason.... even those bad servers above and any other server.... they do spend money they get almost half or more for games, otherwise if its a scam server or a goood server like ADS, will stop... and free games for a lot of people from these server will be gone... and I persoanlly have issues with some of th staffs of ADS, bot overall I have friends, like best friends there.... and they ar very good people...and they do not do anything bad.... I have verified it and confirmd it A MANY TIMES, in different ways... so if you blame ADS you are retatrded to be honest
