Christians... creepy pervs. I am noticing this probably isn't nearly enough over-the-top to work, so instead of trying to make it work, I'm just going to mean it instead. Because it's less work.

Hasn't anyone Ramza that Project NJ means Project New Jefferson? Man, he's like the biggest Jefferson fan, ever, and you guys don't tell him stuff like that? Gee, you guys sure are bastards.

"So then your argument is there is nothing wrong with piracy? Your answer better be yes otherwise you basically just argued semantics rather than because you actually had a logical argument." Are you saying we were arguing seriously? I thought we were doing it for laughs and giggles, old chap! Now, oh dear old friend, I don't understand... Why did you make such a bloody damn stupid comparison as you did if you wanted for us to have a serious debate, a discussion? Surely you see the folly in making a comparison between the theft of a Ferrari and "pirating" a PlayStation 2 game! "That's a pretty good analogy (the wood carving one)" Really? Thanks! I thought it was all sorts of batguanohumpingcrazy, what with it being pretty much totally disjointed from reality and all. (I only wrote that because I wanted to write bat********ingcrazy, and then I decided to post it because I liked the way I bypassed the censorship with it.)

"Who cares if it's silly or not? If there was a law (ridiculous sounding or not) that you cannot sell replicas of that wood carving and a person did so anyways, it's illegal and exactly the same as piracy." You're saying that laws, no matter how silly and inappropriate, should be upheld no matter what? Personally, I believe silly laws don't deserve to exist. "I honestly can't believe you're arguing this. Like I said already, whether or not piracy and theft are EXACTLY IDENTICAL in definition is irrelevant. The point was they're both illegal activities and there is no instance in which either one is okay to do." I see no one arguing here whether or not software "piracy" is illegal or not (I do believe it isn't illegal in a few countries, it was - for personal use - legal in Finland a while ago, by the way, but that is beside the point). I daresay I disagree on the second part, however!

Consider this: the man buys the wood carving from a shop and sells it on after making the copy. Is it a theft now? Wouldn't you laugh yourself silly if you saw a thread titled "Wood Carvings Inc. sues man for unpermitted copying of wood carvings for personal use"? Be honest to yourself now. Someone might make a thread titled just that after a month or two, or even three, and depending on the answer you give now, a hearty :D or a of disbelief might be followed by quotes, links and screenshots. "As for your first part, I'd really like to see your proof that countries don't consider software piracy a form of theft that carries with it fines and/or imprisonment." Wikipedia says: "In the common law, theft is usually defined as the unauthorised taking or use of someone else's property with the intent to permanently deprive the owner or the person with rightful possession of that property or its use." Ha, ha, ha.

Actually, those people are held in Guantanamo specifically because doing it there isn't technically a crime. Or have I been misinformed?

Change your quote to the new, edited one, it is much more edgier and overall better than the one you used. "I really hope you're just being funny and trying to egg me on, because you'd be pretty stupid to argue that software piracy isn't a form of theft. Whether or not you "deprived" someone of something is irrelevent." The laws of many, many countries would be inclined to disagree. "The fact that you took access to something you had no legal right to is all that matters." Consider this: a man borrows a wood carving from a friend (who bought it from a wood carver with real money), makes an exact replica of it for myself and then returns the original one. Theft? What a strange and wonderful example I used there.

Nonsense and lies, your "theories" are shaenanigans! If I steal someone's property I deprive them of that property. Such is not the case with "piracy".

Piracy = copyright infringement != stealing.

"Aren't these reasons enough to steal?" Why are you comparing copyright infringement to stealing?

I fixed your typo there.

"It's annoying. IT'S LIKE USING ALL CAPS or using l33t $p33K. Just type bloody normal." I suppose just telling them to stop that is somehow out of the question? You know, instead of flaming and spamming the thread to hell? Curiously, though, the guy had two perfectly normal posts prior to that one.

Or, you know, you people should just form your own opinions of people instead of expecting the forums to tell you what to think.

Ban Raphael plz?

"So a +5 Magical G-String will keep you protected then right?" I have male genitalia. Har, har, har. Get it?

It's true!

Why would they recycle the Black Hound as a NWN2 expansion if they're already working on Project New Jefferson? MADNESS!

Don't be an ass.

Oh, man. I used to be so much friendlier.

She bit your **** when she was giving you a BJ? Ouch!

"Easy mistake to make, seeing as all finns seem to share the same (rather small) brain." Oh yeah? Well, your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries! I kid. I meant "your 40+ possible biological fathers", swede.

"Cut yourself recently, Sarja?" You must be mistaking me for kirottu, silly swede.

What the hell, Lucius?

Pixies is right, you know? Most of you are so terribly unfunny it's not even funny. Also, Hildegard's a ****. That is all.

Kill him. He's a monster and a horrible abomination, after all.
