- Lets get something straight before we
- start. Piracy is wrong whatever
- reason you may have for doing it. It
- is still against the law.
-
- I believe that if a piece of software
- in your pirate collection is used more
- than three times then you should go to
- the shop and buy it. If you play a
- game once and you thought it was
- really shit then at least you didn't
- buy it in the first place. But if you
-
-
-
-
- have a lot of titles that are cracked
- then you should buy a few originals.
- When I had all my pirate software I
- used to get all the latest games off
- my mate's modem. My mate has now
- moved to another country. I was
- therefore forced to stop my pirating
- activities. I also believe that some
- people just copy games to add to their
- collections. I used to do this a lot
- but my software collection is now only
- about 200 disks, having copyed over
- all my copies with large amounts of
- PD. If you are the sort of person who
- never buys a game... ever. Not even
- a second hand one, then I can't wait
- until you hopefully get caught by
- FAST. Although I don't regard this
- type of piracy as lost sales, simply
- because people like this don't intend
- to buy a good game even if it was only
- £15.
-
- It is this type of people who are
- killing the Amiga. I have one thing
- to ask of you. The next game you get
- on copy, if you are a pirate, just
- keep it to yourself. Don't go giving
- copies of it to all your m8's and it
- won't get spread. Then more people
- will buy it.

- If only one in every twenty people
- read this and do it, then I would be
- happy.
