[citation][nom]demonhorde665[/nom]honestly readign comments regarding pirating makes me sick.seems teh vast majority of users here at tom's . thinks that stealling shit is ok . glad none of your folks are my neighbors. what's so disgusting is the way you get so offensive in your remarks towards companies that are only trying to protect thier product. accoring to soem of teh logic i have seen here , most of you pirate defenders think there should be laws against law enforcers arresting poeple for breaking laws. meh ,why do i bother you degenerates are so inclined to believe thjat the world so how owes you every thing , i doubt any thign i have to say will make you see things in a more reasonable light. Just don';tgocrying to me when some other a-hole robs you.[/citation]
people who are against or for are both retarded in my opinion. but if i had to be grouped in with one side i would rather be on the for it side than against it. why?
people against it all have the same argument that everyone else has, its illegal and you should be punished. however, people against it act like you punched a pregnant lady in the gut so hard the infant soots out and gets killed, and than you take the thing by its umbilical cord and proceed to beat the woman to death with it.
i mean this in all seriousness, the hell do you care? a movie studio will tell you that every person who pirates a move or sees it online for free would have bought it or payed to see it if they didn't see it online. that just plain isn't true.
the same thing with games. if a pirate pirates it they most likely would have never payed for it to begin with. and do not tell me otherwise, because the i pirate than i buy is so rare that its not worth mentioning.
in almost all cases, you cant play online with a pirate game too. you dont get all the functionality.
and here is a CLEAR DIFFERENCE
pirating =/= stealing
because pirating does not take away profit, stealing does. and at best pirating takes away potential profit.
now here is the funny thing, laws keep trying to be passed that makes pirating a worse crime than murder. as in a 1 mill fine and minimum 20 year federal prison sentence.
ill end my little rant here.
