OMG!, too bad about tour stuff, this is definetely a NOT funny matter.
The weird thing is everytime you post, you seem more and more like a super hero / triple xXx type of guy.
In any case, everything turns out OK. Take care dude.

In other news, you missed veho's sudden transformation into a one-winged bat!

Shame to hear about it. 1000 DVDs... that must be years of collection you won't be seeing again.

Maybe I should get going in backing everything to a portable HDD and then locking that up in a safe.

Wonder what kind of lawyer you'll get? Ask for a Mr P Wright. HE CAN SAVE THE DAY

For those wondering, no if the FBI raids your house under said search warrant (e.g. Virus writing) then they can seize everything but they cannot charge you extraneous evidence (e.g. seizing pirated games) because it was not declared in the warrant. It would be considered contraband and then they can a.) hold it indefinetly, b.) destroy it c.) find a way to use to prove their causation in the warrant (big gamble). Since you have not been barred from internet use then it can not be 1.) file sharing 2.) Music, Game, or Video pirating, 3.) Hacking or 4.) Virus writing or 5.) Pornography (illicit). Any of those get you banned for a long time. So, how you came about losing all your gear is quite intriguing. Please let us know as soon as the moratorium is lifted (which should be after the formal charge).

dude that makes me wanna stop my DVD collection and my Ps2 collections and my rom collections, things like that really scare me you know :\

Go get an external HD, and store all your Pirate shit on there. That way, if the feds come, you can hide the HD.

That sucks WeaponXxX.. I hope everything turns out alright. I'd be really pissed if someone just kicked down my door and started taking my belongings.

BTW, wanna tell the story? Was it like 2 men in black suits just showing up to your door one day?Â

If you don't want to, that's completely fine.

I don't know. Whenever I hear feds raiding a house. I always imagine like, a swat team busting out the windows and throwing in smoke grenades and then blowing off my roof and and then coming in from a helicopter above coming down on ropes.

Was it like that episode of Seinfeld when Jerry has a dream that the FBI found out he had illegal cable?

Wow. That sucks. Hope the FBI never does that to me. I do enough crap around here but I do alot of legit stuff too. Most of my "pirating" is for personal reasons and not given out to others. I avoid the P2P file sharing networks since they tend to roam there and I have specific points where I get my stuff at. I'm pretty cautious about where I get stuff.

So....Like Nov 4th the Feds raided my house and took everything ... good news is I hired an army of lawyers to back me which means I got most my hardware back ... bad news being I'm broke ... and somewhat sad news is they took my movie and TV collection spanning about 1000 DVDs... anyway I am not gonna talk about why the feds raided me ... mainly cause they don't want me to .... which kind of kills the whole idea of freedom of speech ... looks like I missed Contra 4 and MK on the DS... what else have I missed in the past 30 days?
Are you with Trashman or why did you got raided?
