| I don't understand some of you... | |

In Response To: Would you steal it? (Jordan117) Honesty is great and all, but I'm loosing a little respect for some of the folks around here. This is a question of maturity. Aside from the fact that you're spoiling your appetite, many of you don't realise that the download simply supports the piracy. None of us exist in a vacuum, however much you think the world revolves around you. You know for the hour you leave that torrent open, someone who won't buy the game is going to have a faster download, a better stealing experience. Not to mention that you are supporting the idea that there is demand for this kind of theft... You are validating it. This is not a "win-win" situation, you will be supporting some level of loss on Bungie's part. You may buy it, but you are helping out the guy who won't. And for what? A few weeks of gloating? Not to mention the idea of integrity... People get disgusted around here by things like the Halogen shut-down, or Bungie outsourcing their IP. So Bungie has to have integrity regarding all things Halo, but you don't? You won't stand it if Halo's name is dragged through the mud... except when it gratifies you. Do you think Halo fans got painted in a good light when the Halo 2 leak happened? Stealing it hurts the entire community's integrity. I know plenty of people who already think the Halo crowd are 16 year-old morons who cheat, de-rank, and scream for 6 hours a night, oh yeah, and don't forget they all steal too. How hard is it to wait with everyone else, and share the experience with those of us who will get home from the line around 1:00am to put that freshly minted disk in our 360, and experience the game the way the developer wants us to? Apparently some of you find that difficult. Grow up. | |
