"saying true things" is not "soapboxing."
I've probably pirated more total tb than half the people here, but have the intellectual honesty to own what you're doing.
You're good at intellectual property rights violations. You broke the law. And yet, you did not steal .
Sure, a court would charge you with different crimes, but the concept is the concept and a forum post is not court.
I prayed shit all the time when I couldn't afford it. When I got money, I eventually rebuilt a lot of those games for convenience's sake. Comics, not so much, but I have thousands upon thousands of them.
