i'm glad that greg is one of many who are spreading the word. real anime fans will understand this message and do something about it! i'm gonna spread the word too.

I totaly understand what Greg is saying. no not just him the whole anime indestry. I cant beleive people are still being jerks and trying to glorafy their stealing. people have such a problom with admiting that they are wrong or that they cant change. Peopel dont seem to understand that if the indestry falls and they gain no money, There will be NO indesty to make anime to be put on the internet. there wont be fan subs cause there will be nothin' to sub! The anime indestry is in its drakest hour

@Sonny18x Don't encourage him. He is just another blind fool that defends leeching. So let him leech off the industry I doubt that any people say will disuade him. It is just the way of a fool.

@Sonny18x What was there to even give up on?

[Sonny18x]

@DrunkSamurai fine i give up, do it ur way.

[DrunkSamurai]

@Sonny18x Nothing? I don't care. There just isn't a problem like they want you to think. Also I wouldn't care and many bands do not care.

[Sonny18x]

@DrunkSamurai im back, ok so what makes it ok to watch online? lets say you start a band and sell albums. naturally you woulnt want people making copies and giving it out for free.

[DrunkSamurai]

@Sonny18x Funny coming from somebody who has been brainwashed to think there is a problem.

[Sonny18x]

@DrunkSamurai yep ur an idiot. bye

[DrunkSamurai]

@DolphinInTheSunset How would you be able to "spread the word?"

[DrunkSamurai]

@Sonny18x Neither. There is no problem so there is no need for a solution.

[Sonny18x]

@DrunkSamurai are u part of the problem or solution
