About this user
You walk into a store, you see a game that you want to play, but you don't have the money. You pick the game up, and walk out of the store, and nothing happens. You get away. You've beat the system. Congratulations. You've got a new game. You tell your friends how easy it is to do this, they all go to the store, they steal the game, nothing happens. You all have the game for free. Congratulations.
The next big release happens. You go to the store, and there's a security guard there. You take the game, and you look for a way out. You exit through the back door. You got the latest release for free. Congratulations. You once again tell your friends, one gets caught by the security guard. He gets two years probation and a major fine. However, everyone else has their copy. Congratulations.
The next big release happens. You go to the store to find the security guard is accompanied with a locked back door and security towers. You see a guy taking the disks out of the case and putting them in his pockets. You take the example, and walk out of the store, with your copy. You have the latest release, free of charge. Congratulations. You tell your friends about it, another one is caught. He's sentenced to a month in prison for petty theft. However, the rest of your friends get the latest release, free of charge. Congratulations.
The next big release happens. You go to the store...to see a sign on the door, accompanied with boarded up windows. The sign reads "Foreclosed". After nearly a year of making nearly no profit on video games, you've closed down your favorite game store, and two friends with criminal records. Congratulations.
This is what you're doing when you pirate games, not to a store, but to an industry. You're slowly making your favorite developers move towards consoles. You're destroying your own platform due to your greed and lust. Congratulations.
THIS IS ALSO THE CASE WHEN IT COMES TO ANIME, I'M SICK AND TIRED OF EVERYONE BITCHING THAT THE ANIMES ON ADULT SWIM SUCK AND TO WATCH ANIMES ONLINE INSTEAD, EITHER SUCK IT UP AND WATCH ANIME ON TV OR PULL OUT SOME MONEY AND BUY THE REAL DVDS RELEASED BY THE ANIME COMPANIES THEMSELVES. WATCHING/DOWNLOADING IT ONLINE OR BUYING PIRATED DVDS IS WHAT IS DESTROYING THE ANIME INDUSTRY.
