This side of Greg scares me, haha. I'm so used to seeing him being a goof. Why are people fighting this? I mean, if there are no profits in America going back to Japan from buying anime, then it's going to be a lot more difficult to keep releasing animes, right? Then our favorite VAs are out of a job because they have no more dubbing to do. I'm guilty as charged in a few cases, though, but still...Greg's totally right.

Get off your high horse fucking thief.

Yeah I agree with Greg all the way epsically with Naruto, I remember that I used to download all the episodes of naruto but now I don't anymore. I feel so sorry for studio Perriot they make the anime and don't recieve a lot of money for their sales which they have to sturgle to get money I still have to buy the boxsets though. However though I have been buying the manga, I will get to the boxsets soon though

@Dante87766988 If anything they should go after people who bootleg over uploaders and downloaders. They should leave downloaders alone completely.

@Sonny18x Ah ok that's cool

[Sonny18x]

@Dante87766988 its alright but i get u now

[Dante87766988]

@Sonny18x my apologies I just thought you were trying to start something, sorry. And I don't recall saying RaizerZ comment encouraged people to download, I just meant the us vs them mentality that greg kinda gives off, makes people feel more outcast, I don't think harassing people who pirate, helps the cause any just makes the situation worse but that's my opinion.

[Sonny18x]

@Dante87766988 sensitive? what are u talking about and how does RAizerZ comment encourage people to download

[Dante87766988]

@Sonny18x a little sensitive are we? And I buy my DVD's for the record.

[Sonny18x]

@Dante87766988 yeah ur probably one of them

[DrunkSamurai]

@Sonny18x No they're not. Not even one bit.

[Sonny18x]

@DrunkSamurai its basicly the same thing
