Officially putting a "Dis Gun Be Gud" watch for you drama lovers out there.

I like how people are going "Oh man there's gonna be a Poketard flood soon!" when they don't realize that the flood came within. The Poketards are already here.

But imagine the flood of outsiders asking about 3DS flashcards and how to pirate their Pokeymans. Especially if the 3DS does get fully hacked or gets a flashcard in the meantime.

There is a joke about halfway between you had to be there and the thread being too good to be true

You don't get it. When other people steal, that's bad. When I take something without paying for it, it's a justifiable act of protest against the fat cats in the industry. Obviously.

 

[Veho]

When I pirate, it's because I don't feel like paying.

To be fair, it's duplicating more so than stealing - the original copy is "still there", it just multiplies.

It's still wrong, but just sayan.

Oh, I absolutely agree that it's not quite "stealing" in the traditional sense - piracy is definitely a murky, greyish area. Nothing is more annoying, though, than when people try to whitewash it.

Indeed. When I do something that's obviously wrong, the least I can do is acknowledge that what I'm doing is wrong rather than look for excuses to feel better about myself. I know for a fact that I wouldn't buy all the games I pirated - that's a given. I wouldn't have as many consoles if I couldn't pirate on them either. That said, I'm not entitled to own those games, so I'm aware of the illegitimacy of the act of piracy. Some people aren't, and it's pretty sad.

Because I can't, in good conscience, believe any of this. Coupled with the ego stroking and pity partying, I think it's worthy of a spot.

Come the f*ck on, how immature can you get? When I do something wrong, I should at least be freaking aware it's wrong.

EDIT: OWAIT, already on the list apparently. Well, more tags to add then.

I'd also like to note that a small abortion discussion worked its way into the piracy thread.
