Nobody's argument changes the fact that software piracy is against the law, nobody (not even pirates or pirate sympathizers or whatever you want to call each other) has tried to argue otherwise. Everybody knows it's against the law. Why can't we just have an honest discussion? Why can't...

First off, it doesn't look at all like the guy was trying to justify piracy. Second, please read the post you quoted again. He's just arguing semantics, like most people posting in the thread. He's doing this because, while it may not seem like it, it is an important distinction to make. He...

Just spit coffee everywhere. Thanks a lot, pal!

Anyone can do it, but I think he's right, a lot of people are either unaware or don't bother. An IP address is just not enough evidence to prove anything on its own anyway. However, getting away with it shouldn't be a valid excuse in anyone's mind. Piracy on the whole possibly losing them...

I bought mostly indie games, nothing major. Probably spent about $25 Scratch that, I've already spent over $50.. Oh lord! I had no idea. 16 games total (excluding Orange box and a really old strategy game that I scored for free). Trying to buy Arkham City while it's still on sale. Anybody...

There's really no need to be belittling people. EA is a publisher, of course they only published it, who said otherwise? What the fuck is going on in here? OP also seems well aware of the option to choose where your money goes, in fact, he goes so far as to mention it in the OP. I...

Actually it's more like leaving your new Mercedes unlocked in a bad neighborhood. Okay all these analogies suck. Edit: For clarification I'm not referring to the clothing issue at all but general situational awareness. Prevention and awareness is a good thing. Let's play a game Can...

I made a fairly comprehensive post that I'd like to get looked at.

With a Queen like you at the helm, Susan, I think we're going to be just fine.

I made that statement simply because your information was false and, believe it or not, that ugly situation still leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Now, I actually commended you guys on the way you are currently handling situations like this and the very visible effort of great folks like...

I'm sure I read an article a while ago on modern consoles essentially becoming PCs. It's weird, man, all these separatists..

False. Advocating the use of ad block has been against the rules since December 2010. Before then people were just mass banned for talking about it despite not being against any rules at the time. Edit: I'm certainly not disputing the warning. It's nice to see the way The Escapist is...

For the sake of constructive criticism: While I will say that the footer in particular looks very polished, the choice in text colour vs the background colour is quite poor. Although you could simply add a lighter text colour on mouseover I think the base text colour needs to be a little...

Not to be a buzzkill but if you don't own the system I would think it's slightly less than legal to emulate the hardware/firmware. Emulators are a touchy subject, while they are not inherently the tools of a pirate they have the potential to accommodate such things without any extra effort...
