Word Replacement
« on: September 17, 2004, 02:46:00 PM »

I know that we have an increasing number of pirates in these forums, so why don't we have it when people say I downloaded X from, it will just be replaced with I legally bought X from. I know, dumb idea, but it might help when people post "I donwloaded" and it comes out "I bought". Might be a dumb idea, but it might get the point across that we don't like pirates.

So, let's say I say "I downloaded the new xbox media center last night... it's pretty sweet" and that would be "I bought the new xbox media center"?

The pinned topics and rules already let people know we don't like pirates.  Plus, that would only allow many piracy posts to get through the filters, and would not in any way stop piracy on these forums.

On a side note, I think it might be somewhat funny to hear someone say "I bought the CSISO release of..." :lol:

plus itd be thinly vieled as many people who talk about piracy are the ones who cant get the games that arent out yet to run...

several weeks before its actual release: "i just bought silent hill 4 and i cant get my backup to work"
