If anybody has a spare Spore key,may i please have it ?I've been interested in this ,but i cannot buy things online.
People tend not to tolerant begging around these parts. There's numerous giveaway threads and a recent one apparently gave away a Spore key, I would say those are your best bet. I'd like to not have to close this thread because it seems this is a problem a couple people have had before and I would prefer the support is here for them if they need it.

I was not begging,i merely asked if the person in question still had said spare key.Don't have to react like this.

I'm more upset by the limited-number-of-installs DRM, the you-can't-deauthorize-a-dead-system element to it, and the inability to just download it off the intertron to reinstall (given that I have my cd key and game dvd, but do not feel like replacing my dvd drive, and even had a backup of the game folder which would run but which the updates did not work on).

I think these are CD keys, not for Origin. EA appear to be working on adding games released before Origin's existance, but Spore does not appear to be one of those games at the moment. Information
