    It's different when it's in real life. On the computer, it's like... part of the internet. It's just there, and you don't have to sneak around. In real life... you're actually virtually TAKING IT FROM THEM. So it's different morally. It's morally wrong, and even moreso it's illegal.

    You're probably one of those fuckers that makes friends with rich kids to steal their shit.

        wtf are you thinking hamster. It does not matter what your opinion is. If you go to jail for it then it probably is bad.

        P.S. You have a wierd perspective.

        P.P.S.i agree with arch. You're probably one of those fuckers that makes friends with rich kids to steal their shit.

          I guess if your rich kid friends take advantage of illegal immigrants and destroy small "mom n' pop" businesses, then yeah, I'd steal from them.

              In order to posess things, you must earn them.

              There are many ways to earn things. Example: You can study for that robotics test and earn the A+, or you can build a robot that tells you the answers without being caught and earn the A+.

              If you gain posession of something, you earned it. If you lose it though, then you un-earned it. Stealing is an option in earning something. If you have the skills to get past sercurity with a stolen Manga or whatever with being caught, you deserve/earn it. But if you don't enough skill to cover up your tracks well, you may be caught later on and un-earn it.

                Great theory Omeganitros!

                Life isn't a videogame...if you can get away with stealing it is not okay. If you can get away with killing 5 people, it is not okay.

                  P.S equals Post Script. I think.

                    Yeah, but it's like, Alpha version. So much is missing, but it's still fun to screw around with the physics and walk around looking at the graphics. Pretty much it's just the E3 demo levels. Scroll down to near the bottom for my post: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...=7754&start=30

                    And yeah, PS is Post Script.

                    Oh, and Omeganitros sounds Spartan. Well, I think it's Sparta...anywho, in World Civ our teacher told us how in Sparta they didn't care if you broke the rules, only if you got caught. I guess they held the same belief as Omeganitros.
                    So I've gone completely slack-ass and haven't done any work on creating games. =(

                    In less-depressing news, I got a job for an online business (which sells non-electronic games, of all things!) which has taught me a lot about marketing online and all that jazz.

                    So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright.
                    And I write the blog for their website.

                    Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O

                      Stealing is stealing no matter what.

                        Yeah, but whether you care is the question. I think a few people posted some good times when stealing could be morally sound.

                        Yeah, 2 wrongs don't make a right, but still. Like, Robin Hood was a hero, but he was a theif. I think some people believe in the "steal from the rich, give to the poor" mentality and they think stealing from greedy people will make up for how those greedy people obtained their wealth. Problem in that case is: the middle man keeps it. If we gave what we stole to the less fortunate, maybe it would be different, but stealing is wrong. (period)

                          Whoops. I probably need to slightly modify that post of mine, but the slight modification still wouldn't help much. But I'm too lazy to slightly modify it, and I'm tired, and I just got pwned. Now if you'll excuse me, my left eyeball just exploded...

                            whatever...it's your opinion. Don't worry about it if that's what you truly think. Don't let others influence you so easily.
