Piracy Q & A.

[HardyRetardy]

Well, folks, we're not Facepunch, and one of the most burning desires- burning-est desires? I think I've heard the phrase before, but I'm pretty sure it's incorrect. Anyways, one of the things people want to do the most on the Internet is break copyright law and have other people help them acquire and employ data of questionable legitimacy with no hope for any kind of appreciable reward.

Well, I'm in the mood to impose myself upon others today, and rather than make a one-off question thread (which would be pretty boring) I've decided to lay the groundwork for future questions!

[If you somehow didn't know, Q & A stands for Questions & Answers.]

Q: Would it be okay to download porn for free and dispense it on Fakepunch free/cost money?

Q: Would it be okay to make a question and answer thread on Fakepunch?

Q: Would it be okay to download a game if you only bought the serial?

Q: Would it be okay for someone who owns a game to download a ROM of that game for emulation? [In this case, HeartGold; Romulation took down their downloads due to copyright claims by Nintendo.]

Q: what are you doing
-A: You could say I'm promoting peer-to-peer consultation.


[I'm not trying to turn this into a warez board. Rather, this is so that we can help each other out without fear of being misguided or linked to virus sites. If this isn't kosher, I suppose this thread belongs in the DDT. ]

Oh hey I forgot the real reason I made this thread.

Which is kind of weird, because I figured my question out for myself while making the thread.

[sirdangolot5]

Is anyone else seeing two of this thread

[xpod1]

Nope.

Why is this so funny to me

Fuck I can't delete the OP without deleting the thread.

I thought Adam said you were anti-warez.

Would it be okay to download a game if you only bought the serial?

[koekje4life]

Heh, piracy. It's a great way of demoing a game without boundaries.

[HardyRetardy]

Adding my original question, finally remembered it.

Would it be okay for someone who owns a game to download a ROM of that game for emulation? [In this case, HeartGold; Romulation took down their downloads due to copyright claims by Nintendo.]

Which is more morally justifiable: Pirating a $500 rompler (basically an ad-hoc sample library for FL Studio) or charging that much for it in the first place?!?

[Ibutsu]

then acquire it by less legal means

[unoriginalname]

I often pirate games before I buy them. Mostly to try them out to see if they're worth buying or not. I'm running Windows 7 right now, and I pirated it.

THE POLICE DO. They don't have time to solve problems like murders, arson and psychotic people, but they can take 8 hours a day monitoring what you do online!
