[quote]Companies have a right to decide to make a playable demo so you can try the game out for free. If they don't, it's up to you to do your own research or rent the game first.[quote]
And i agree, But if they don't, they should not be surprised when their games are pirated at first, Rather than bought.

Of course not but:
1. Since when did a bunch of idiots, Who obviosuly think about nothing but their own financial gain, Decide what an individual person should and should not consume. It does not harm anyone else, Just looses the government profit.
2. Since the law is there, Why cant the governement just charge tax or something on the drug? Rather than employ a hefty fine.
I, myself do not smoke any type of toxicant, and dont intend to, But it should still be up to the individual person weather or not heshe want to use a certain intoxicant.
[quote]Because then nobody would think twice about just pirating a game if their only penalty was to pay for it. Punishment is meant as a deterrent. The justice system doesn't charge people different amounts depending on their income.[\quote]
Good point, But Do you really think piracy will stop from this?
[quote]Then go move to Turkmenistan, North Korea, or China if you don't like your "corrupt" government and see which one you prefer.[\quote]
Lol, Dude, Incase you did not notice, I think the government system is BS altogether. We need high class technology, Not, well dressed up dumb asses, to lead us into war for their own goddamn gain.
[quote]This is your final warning for double posting. I wouldn't otherwise care but myself and other mods have already warned you enough times. [\quote]
Ok, Fine. I really don't see what the big deal is. Like does it take up more room on the server? Or are you just being picky. FYI, You are the only mod on the entire board since ive been here, Who has warned me about double posting
[quote]Enforcing piracy laws is corrupt? It's quite the opposite, it shows the government isn't bending rules for specific people and playing favourite.[\quote]
Nope, The way the governement then uses the fine money for "Neccesery war efforts" is corrupt. Im sorry, But anyone who actually beleive's bush was right for going to war in Iraq, is a moron. All people got from it, Was a huge war memorial. The other gain, was more blood money for bush.
What i don't understand, Is i would have thought the answer to piracy is pretty obvious. Have a few main texturesmodelssounds stored on a secure ftp server. Then when the game runs, Download those mediums from the server for use in the game, But never copy it to hard drive. Only ever keep it in memory. That way people who do pirate the game, will get an f'ed up version, with main textures like ground textures and buildings missing. It wont stop all piracy, but its probably alot more effective than the BS secureom and co.
