Child -blam!-. If pirating really did hurt the CP industry, why aren't we encouraging it?

Why is it different for video games?

Child pr0nz is illegal... there's not much of an industry for it. Unless you're talking about the Underground Super Scummy Black Market (USSBM).

OT: Because it does. Think about it. Each movie that is paid for goes to balancing out the budget that they just burned through to create that movie.

It's only after all the bills are paid for when the actors make their residual payouts on it.

It's illegal to download CP because it creates a demand. But apparently pirating video games hurts sales.

Don't you see the dissonance?

There's nothing wrong with CP as long as they're consenting adults.

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

YARR! Let me swab your poopdeck!

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

I thought this was going to be another "pirating is stealing" thread. Not sure whether to be glad that it isn't, or to leave because of the comparison.

If I ever get AIDS, I'm going to sleep with another AIDS person so my AIDS cancel each other out, or I'm going to make the AIDS I already have worse.

You obviously didn't read your last post. But, we'll be getting off topic, so feel free to PM me any complaints/comments/concerns.

Have a nice day. =)

Pirating is perfectly fine, why can we listen to youtube anytime and anywhere yet if we download the song its wrong??

Besides here in the UK the laws don't make sense, I can record a movie from TV and yet if I downloaded that film it's illegal.

Or for ROM's it's illegal to download games yet if you own it you can download it without penalty. But yet if you walk into a shop and show proof you owned the game you cannot walk out with a new 1 for free.

It's stupid and until it's fixed i'll continue to pirate.
