Seriously, stop being so stupid. If you have a head on your shoulders, and a brain in there somewhere, you would realize that that isnt theft, and that your logic is completely skewed and dumb.

To all those who don't have paypal / credit card: Did you call or email the developers (one of the two) and ask if there was another way to pay? Money order, etc? Saying you had no other way just shows laziness and short sightedness. I don't know who doesn't have at least one friend / parent who wouldn't be willing to pay for it if you gave them $20 cash.

Stop justifying it. If you don't have the money, you don't deserve the game just like you don't deserve a new bike (or maybe that gets stolen too) or even a meal at McDonald's. Earn some money and either find someone to order it for you or write the developers. I am sure they will be more than willing to work with you if someone showed some interest to purchase the game.

(oh, and the game is worth it)

Why hello there troll. How is your TROLLING going today?

Look, your argument is completely invalid, and stupid. Stop defending piracy, troll.

Your stealing something INSIDE the game as you play it. Its not real, its not reality, it doesnt affect Rockstar at all if you steal the car. However if you STEAL the GAME it DOES affect them.

......This is retarded, honestly. The car inside GTA4 doesn't cost money, it's free.

World of Goo is not free, it costs money. But if you take it without paying for it, you're stealing. Oh oh oh, I'm soooooo sorry, you're "pirating." Ahem...what was it that pirates are infamous for exactly? -_o

I don't know if some people in this thread are as ignorant as they seem to be, or if they're just trying to justify their wrongdoing, or just trolling for giggles. In any case, I've spoken my peace.

I made an interesting post on past 11 where I called out the anti-pirates on certain "posting habits".

I claimed they usually respond in two ways: ignore well written posts that refute their flawed arguments or simply reiterate the flawed arguments.

Since they didn't have any such arguments ready to combat my post and didn't/couldn't think of ones they choose to ignore my post completely thus proving me right on my claim.

This post might stir them up a bit though.

Look guys, at this point you could just as well go back to your already written posts and then copy and paste them into new ones. It won't make any difference, you'd just waste a lot less time.
