Give your honest opinion how you feel about developers losing sales because people aren't buying their game or that its just plain 'ol cancer.

I think it's silly that it's still considered pirating if you own the game but can't find it or you want to try it on the computer.

Do not:
    Do not talk about pirating software
    Do not give links to software pirating sites
    Do not give instructions on how to pirate software
    Do not talk about how you just pirated software
    Do not give links/talk about/show off private or cracked mmo servers - this is piracy
    Do not use "clever" innuendo to talk about any of these things
uhhh

That poll is more than a little biased. The soulless among us require an option that lets them decide how much they hate developers.

He wasn't exactly talking about it, he was asking what people thought of it.

Well, I suppose this topic could still fall under that rule since it does speak of it and the only way to contribute is to break that rule.

Anyway, I've only ever pirated once before, and it was an outdated version of Minecraft before I bought it.

You should probably lock this, its very borderline with the rules and it'd be really easy to get banned for this

Never pirate indie games. It's insulting and they need that money just to make ends meat.

They deserve that money for producing a game that people want to buy.

I believe that applies more to someone making or thread or post saying "Hey guys, I put this free copy of Battlefield 3 on Mediafire! *insertlinkhere*".
