Actually owning WaReZ?
 

This is just a simple question -- no advertisments, no sales, no sites. Im just wondering -- out of all you -- who actually OWNS a single WaReZ file or has ever downloaded one.

I mean, who wants to pay 2,000 dollers for PS? I dont know one child here that could front that kind of money for ps... now I ask: who has (had) a warez file/movie/MP3 on your computer.

kthanks.

i vote yes because there's is no one that you don't own warez

Do I ever!?

We all got warez.

ya no one can say they have none

0-sec access for games & movies & albums is hard to resist. My vote is yes.
But if I have the money and I think the game is worth it, I will go buy it. Then again, I never have the money.

If the companies lower the price, they earn lot of cash anyway. Then existance of warez would be minium.

You can argue differently -- the more warez the higher the price has to be ._>

Why do admins (I know all you have it) get worried about warez posts here and there?

Id understand 100% if the host was like 1 POST ABOUT WAREZ I WILL shut you down, but the host is not, and infact im sure he uses warez himself.

*just a side note--zelaron was warez for about 6 mos ^_^. We got threatned like 30 times -- but hey!*

Everyone probablly owns some form of warez. However, I don't think lowering the prices will ever get rid of warez. Now, I life in a rich city and I can probablly buy or get my parents to buy any computer program that I really wanted. The thing is, I still download warez. Most the warez I download are games that I want to play a few times but don't actually want to buy it. I do buy games that I really want to play though. Actually, I lost my train of thought and forgot what I was getting at here.

Hmm... but yea, in the end warez ARE illegal and no matter how many people do it its never the 'right' thing to do. So, its irrelivent if you do it or not. The bottom line is that its illegal.

Businesses want to pay that. Photoshop was NOT developed for some teenagers to sit at their house and make little pictures for their dumb little website. Photoshop was designed for professional computer graphic designers to purchase. And yes, they do purchase it, I know many businesses have it... hell, my school even has it.

There are games which has little replay value, and people wouldn't really want to pay $40-60 for such games.

I have numerous MP3s and games on the PC, by the way.

I have 'em. I love 'em. Even if i get arrested for having 'em, I'd still go back to 'em.

'em is fun to use

n00b question.....whats a warez? lol like a program that u dont pay for? er what?

Yes, basically its a hacked/cracked/whatever program that is avaiable for you to download for free.

So yes, like any program you get illegally for free is warez.

Unless it is freeware or shareware...

Now, who's the person with no warez at all?

Well, even if the products were 99% off, I would still get the warez. The nearest CompUSA is like 20 miles away, so the gas money wasted wouldnt be worth it.

Yes, most of us do own warez, and theyre not allowed for some reason on the forum...probably the same reason the d2jsp forum doesnt allow hacked item selling, even though theyre completely ruining the economy with their bots...

Contradictions galore.

i've never owned a single warez file in my life

:rolleyes:

umm...wait...damn it listening to an mp3 right now off of a windows that was burned for me

i have a real question for you. wuts the point of PAYING for warez? isnt warez supposed to be Free? i think if you sell warez your retarded and thats the people who companies should be worried about. also with warrez it takes the same amount of time to download that it does to actually get the money that the real thing costs (with 56k try dling a like 800 mb file... like 3 weeks later ull be playing and find it needs a cd-key so u have to go buy the game anyway lol)

I voted yes, the only no is from someone that probably didn't know what warez was...

well if u ever dled a mp3 uve owned warez...

Who would be smart enough to use 56k to get 800 Mb anyway? =P

Im sure WW doesnt. He is strongly agaist it

WW better have voted no...

well there are two nos =\

Actually, I didn't vote. I used to have a few ripped games, but I've since gone out and bought a legit copy or erased them.

But the point is that you actually had dl/owned warez.

Now why would anyone in their right mind go out and buy something they already had... Sounds like he is just saying what he thinks he should be saying.

Think what you like. Most of it just got unused for a long period of time and dissappeared into the void when I upgraded my computer with a new HD at some point, some of it I really did buy. Why would I buy it if I already have it? To support the people who make it.

I've had them, although they aren't morally right, stealing what others have made. Insted, I stick to ripping AAC's from CD's, and I don't have Phtoshop or any other downloaded program. All my games are games I bought with my hard earned money. It means more when you earned it, rather than stole it. Even my operating system is mine (Windows XP Home Edition), whereas I know a lot of people Windows XP Professional that was pirated. If I want a movie on my computer, I'll DivX it. I used to be really into pirating everything I could find, because it gave me a feeling of power over the coprerations that are trying to make a living off of their hard made products.

If you were in their place, would you want little 13 year old pre-pubescant little fools pirating your program and using it so they can be "1337", costing you hundreds of dollars in profits?

WW is full of shit, i mean, cmom "suport the people who make them" then i woudl buy them fi they didnt charge so much for their shit. im the king of warez, hell, the last time i bought a game was when F16MRF came out.......another reason sit hat im poor too.



edit- from the Urge to kill...rising thread

I don't know what this is and anyways isn't this is what TacoX got de-admined over?

Yes, he got de-admined because he was selling warez on Zelaron.

You pay for what you get. If you pay a lot, you get a kickass tool. Pay $20 for MS Paint, or $$609.00 (Not $2,000)for Photoshop. Which is better?

I thought 2,000 seemed kind of high.

By the way, if you were wondering, I do download MP3's from time to time and I do download some video games.

I have downloaded various Super NES Games, along with an emulator. Of course, I've only downloaded one or two games of which I already owned. Lufia II, and Super Mario Kart ^_^

609 is the upgrade wiccan, even 2000 is not so high, maya unlimted costs a whoppping 7000

LoL uber prices!

Exactly, again I say, because its made for movie developers and professionals like that that require a powerful program like that... and not us teenagers to use for fun.

actually i was looking to purchase maya complete 5 which is 2000
