Hi.
I study at Politechnika Śląska in Gliwice, and my mail is @student.polsl.pl. It would be great if you would like to add this domain.
Thank you.

Making this completely free is an invitation for any d-bag or his dumbass kid brother (or anyone that can get their hands on a .edu, which can't be that hard if you know people) to come and sully Octane - especially the forums... I can just see it now...
Not long ago I was thinking about suggesting that you to set up a kiddie pool of sorts, in the event that you should start selling Octane on Steam etc.... Now I really, really think you should do this. Working pros need to be able post crap in forums and not get lost in a sea of "what are UV maps?"..."hows come my polys ain't showin?"...

Since the beginning, anyone with an email could post on the public forums and ask questions about the demo version, and we've managed that OK.
Either way the issue you are concerned about is moot. Students have their own section of the forums, in addition to the public ones. The student forums are also separate from the licensed customers section, which can only be accessed if you have purchased a commercial license.
This doesn't mean commercial licensed customers can't help out and contribute to the student forums, as they currently do on the public forums.
