Re: any chance ill get arrested

Posted by NAMELESS on .
IVE DOWNLOADED THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF GAMES IN BUNDLES

AND 1 BY 1 DOWNLOADS THROUGH TORRENTS IVE DOWNLOADED HUNDREDS OF GAMES OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS

THE WAY I SEE IT, IF IT IS INFINITELY REPLICATABLE AT NO COST, THEN IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE FREE

COMCAST INTERNET AND SOME INTERNET SERVICES GIVE YOU A DISCONTINUE NOTIFICATION IF YOU TORRENT SOMETHING IE. SHREK MOVIES. THEY WILL GET YOU ON THAT

BUT THEY ARE JUST LEGALLY REQUIRED TO SNED YOU AN EMAIL

I HAVE GOTTEN THOSE EMAILS LIKE 50 TIMES OVER THE YEARS

AND NEVER ONCE HAS ANYTHING EVER BEEN DONE ABOUT IT

GRANTED I ALWAYS DO REMOVE THE TORRENT IN QUESTION WHEN THEY BITCH ABOUT IT


BUT NO AS PER MY OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, AND IM OLD, YOU WILL NOT EVER HAVE TO DEAL WITH ANYONE QUESTIONING YOUR GAMING, UNLESS ITS A TORRENT, AND THEN AT THAT RATE IT WILL LITERALLY HAVE TO BE YOUR MOTHER OR FATHER WHO CARES... CAUSE DO YOU CARE?
NO YOU DONT CARE THAT YOUR ISP SENT YOU AN EMAIL. SO ITS NOT EVER GOING TO BE AN ISSUE


ALTHOUGH THATS JUST MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

I've seen some say they've gotten fines multiple times and others saying they've been doing it for years. Most likely you won't get arrested for it, but you could be fined, I have heard of it happening. Typically if you stick to older generations that aren't being sold, companies don't usually care. It's mainly when you start pirating new games that are on shelves still.
