You do know that he can't read whatever you write Milky? You're spending time and energy shouting at a brick wall.

He sometimes reads what we post. He responded to something I said in another topic, albeit indirectly so.

Yes, though, only if unblocked members quote your posts. Thus, he can read this quoted post, but not your original one.

As much as I want to put on my trollface and just quote Milky's post, I'm going to ask another question:

Is this topic actually allowed? >> I imagine it would be one of those sketchy "first rule of pirating, don't talk about pirating"...in relation to the boards, dealios.

Your half right. Sharing pirate links, discussing where to get roms, that kind of stuff is against the rules. Also piracy tends to be flame biat which is why I made it clear in the op that there is to be no judging or moralizing.

Anyhoo, I have never pirated until I used some emulators to play some NES, SNES, SS and GC games.

Allowed it is indeed. Sabre's right in his intepretation of the rules.

Never pirate anything anymore, I used to use limewire when I was younger but then discovered the quality was utter crap when listened to from anything other than a tinny cellphone speaker, plus it gave me a virus. My dad has a friend that used to obtain pirate DVDs from a work colleague, but I never watch them anymore as once again, the quality is utter crap and it's much better seeing them in a theatre with friends than huddled round a fuzzy screen with poor sound.

The only time I agree is if you're downloading something that Isnt available in your country, for example without emulation I would have never got to play Super Mario RPG and a ton of other great SNES games. There's streaming TV shows that haven't aired in the UK yet as well, but it's not like I'm burning it to a disc and flogging it out the back of my car :P

Yes but very rarely anymore. Anymore if I want to download a movie, I request if from netflix as a DVD, and rip it using DVD Decrypter, and keep it on an External HDD. With Anime, if they don't have it on Netflix, I will pirate it, Because $20-$30 a Season for a long running anime, that is too damn pricey for something I am prolly only gonna watch once. I do the same for expensive software. I try to avoid the big stuff that "The Man" is watching, like any recent movie release or Music, don't feel like going to court, or having to pay thousands in damages.

No because that is against Federal Law, and is a huge crime. I do not try to lie, and that would be lying to my Country. It wouldn't feel right either. I don't try to be "shady" and don't plan to be either. Sorry.

I'm gonna disagree bout the niche of niche thing, I love bullet hell games, but I'm neither a Japan Fan or an Importer, I just love games.

Anyways, Pirating... I guess yeah I do. It's like this, if there's a tv series I wanna watch but it's on at ridiculous hours or the episodes aren't in order, I will pirate it so they are in order/at a resonable time. Also if there's a movie or something and I want an audio sample I will pirate it for that. Games I love too much to pirate, I want all the money to go to the people who make them so they can make me better games.

Everyone's got a little pirate in them...doesn't sounds right, but yeah, I've pirated. But I will say this: When it comes to music I will pirate but I will often buy what I download later. If it is a band I respect I will pretty much always buy their music, though.

I download music, But that's about it.

I pay for all my games on Steam. I generally only watch movies in the Theater or on Netflix.

I guess you could say I pirate photos, But I think that's a given to pretty much any Internet User. I'm not breaking ToS by using photos in a business setting without credit to the Original Owner. But that's always up for debate.

Woooot,list:

Music, almost never, really, I listen to remixes or techno, techno coming from whatever my sister gives me, so in theory, nop, unless she pirates it.

Movies, I downloaded "The last samurai" once, but that's it, I have streamed like....3 or 4 movies on the internet, so I guess that counts too.

Anime, quiiiite a lot actually, most of the stuff I watch never releases around our corner of the globe until for a couple of years, anyways.

Manga, mangafox has rules and stuff, so that's not pirating!, they put stuff that hasn't been released here and remove things that get released.

Roms, a ton, nuff said.

Games, some stuff I buy, some stuff I "get", but not as much as before for sure, steam has excellent prices and great sales, so yeah, I certainly buy stuff.

I'd rather be honest than appear all "I'm a holy knight, I haven't done anything :D".

Honesty, the best policy, ever. I will probably move my rate of buying games to 95% once I get out of college, but I will certainly keep getting some roms and Anime out of the internet.

I think I have only Pirated the series of smaller Anime, but I do plan on buying the DVD's, HONEST!!!!!~~

Also, Yes, I do Pirate. I enjoy being a scurvy dog and sailing the seven seas singing the classical pirate song!

[And yes, I do realize this joke was already made. xP]
