Pirating?

[BMatt]

My dad is worried that downloading real Nintendo DS games, like Rocket Slime or Pokemon, is pirating. I'm pretty sure it is, but my brother wants me to check.

 

[sweenish]

you're obtaining software you didn't pay for

what do you think?

 

[jphriendly]

Yes...it is. Plain and simple.

 

[Calafas]

Yes it is.

 

[Sstew]

Hah. Yes it is, It's illegal, if you dont want potential consequences don't do it. Plus those games are good, help out the developers.

 

[dice]

Don't do it, the FBI will come after you.


Trust me I'm a supervisor

Dice's avatar is a good representation of what will happen when the FBI do come

Rofl. Exactly, along with destroying evidence.

 

[BMatt]

Thanks all! *now to remove the evidence*

Man, your dad is worried about piracy?

I'm a pirate because of my dad. I wouldn't even know what a damn ROM is without him.

 

[Sstew]

Im the same way, my dad is more worried about it then me. I stumbled into piracy on my own.

It's illegal. The FBI will shut down your whole fucking family. DO NOT DO IT!

First legitimate "lol" I've had on Temp in awhile.

Tell your brother that the swat team broke into my house and lit up all of my pets.

wow good thing you found out fast enough. yes piracy is completely illegal and a horrible horrible thing to do to the people that worked so hard to make games. If the FBI do come to your house because of piracy, you can rest assured that you will not only be in trouble that you dearly wish you weren't involved in you will also probably be fined a great deal of money. It's just not worth it, piracy is horrible and the risks behind it are so great and unbearable it's almost as if you are a criminal when you constantly break the law that many times to download things illegally. I mean come one, even Dice, one of our staff members here came in this thread and told you how bad it was. I mean yes, some people obviously over exagerated when they are like "lol the SWAT Team came to my house" but you understand the point that there is grave and horrible consequences if government officials do indeed become aware of the fact that people are routinely breaking the law in your household. No the SWAT team will not come to your house but if the FBI does I can guarantee you that you will be crying about why you did it in the first place. It will be pretty bad, trust me. Do your parents know how bad it is? I am guessing not obviously, show them this thread if you are really going to keep breaking the law even after one of the staff members here told you how bad it was. Are you really still going to keep it up? I mean honestly, are you?

Pirates raped my mother!

 

[layzieyez]

If by mother you mean the gaming industry, then yes, they did rape your mother.

 

[Reaper]

D-d-don't do it. Th-they told me not to tell you about the horrible things they did to pirates but..

 

[ENDscape]

Yes dont be a pirate, not good. we here at gbatemp dont pirate, hence the rules about no illegal roms.

Just support and buy games for me i mean the developers so they make more games.
