    I never register my games, because for a long time the only pc in my house with an internet connection was my mum's, and if I went anywhere near that with a game, carnage did ensue. Now I finally have an internet connection on my own pc, the university network I am connected to does not actually allow me to connect to any sort of server, including games, and most stupidly, virus scanner updates. It seems I am to languish forever in a non-registered games world.

    I've never really seen the point in registering games (unless maybe you play online, which I never do).

    I usually do register my software since it isn't really all that much trouble to do so but there is almost never any real benefit from registering.

    Even when they give you game hints or cheats as a reward for registering they are always just the same ones that you would find doing a thirty second search on the internet.

    I usually intend to but then never get around to it.

    I used to register them in the beginning when I was young and naive, but since they didn't even send me any junk mail for my efforts, I just gave up on it. Obviously Slovenia is too far away for anyone to give a damn.
