| It's only wrong if you pirate something that is still in production. |

i think it's ok to torrent games you lost or if you want to play it on another computer but the drm restricts you
after all you should be able to play it on any computer if you bought the game

| If you bought it already, then I don't really care, considering you still technically payed for the game. |

| If he's going to get the game, and then pirates it, and then never pays for it, I think that's wrong because it's stealing. |

| Does he buy the game in the end, or plays the game without paying for it? |

even if he never pays for it, how do you know he was going to buy it in the first place?

Well, I wouldn't know.
Look, I'm getting confused. If he pirates a game, not thinking he'll pay for it, and ends up liking it and pays for it, I'm fine with that. If someone just gets it as a trial to see if he'll like the game, and he doesn't like the game, and never touches the pirated version again, I'm fine with that also. But someone who gets the game, whether he likes it or not, and plays the pirated version without ever paying for it, that is something I disapprove of. |

i pirate, but the companies don't give me a way to buy the games
On the other hand, I'm left-handed. |

there are far worse things on the internet to worry about than piracy

| Okay, enough japing with you. But what is your stance on used games? Surely the same as yours on piracy, correct? |

@flawless
fun fact: pirating has gone down
fun fact: sales aren't going up
PIRATING ISN'T THE MAIN PROBLEM. PUBLISHERS JUST LIKE TO PUT EVERY BLAME ON THEM, JUST TO REINFORCE THEIR AGENDA OF DRM. |

My stance on piracy is:
1. put one foot on a pirated game
2. put other foot on another pirated game
3. duct tape the foot to said games
4. run around hitting people |
