tl:dr Torrenting is never going to stop

Incase no one took anything from this topic besides reading the title, Torrenting is going to stop; and do you know how? Game developers are going to stop making PC games. Hell, we're already half way there-- some games released are for console only, others make console versions first and crappily port them over to PC years later.

You won't have any games to torrent if there are no games released for PC, huh?

Thats why i have a PS3 and will get a PS4 when it gets released. :P
If a game is free to download, why spent money on it? I prefer to save money and buy games from developers that gives us what we want rather than giving money to some lazyass that doesnt fix the bugs of their games.

That's like saying "If your neighbor has a 70 inch TV you want, why go buy one at the store?"

There you go, cop didnt have a car and one was spawned for him.
Admins are helpers, not monsters.

And i just want to take this moment that i have to thank you SO much for giving me the chance to be a moderator. I really enjoyed it, and although I made bad decisions (like playing MW3 too much haha xD), I really really did enjoy helping players like never before. You were my role model, you were the best admin I had seen in years, and there will never be another one like you.

It will take another to replace me, but I dont think CT can recover if they lose you bro, I wish you the best.

(Pretty sure you hear stuff like this every day XD You're like Chuck norris)

It's unfair that admins can teleport to buy house, and reset their own camping score, but we have to trust that they won't abuse it. We have to trust them anyway, because the server is in their hands. Without admins server is nothing.

I only buy games when developers deserve it.
Just like EA: I bought Battlefield 3, just like Valve: i bought Left 4 dead 2 and Counter Strike Pack.

And your example is way too different... Downloading a game will not get you jailed. Stealing your neighbor TV will make you jailed.

Most likely you'll pay cash or serve one night in jail. Not a big deal.

If I am to buy a game normally I will buy it from steam or I will buy it when it's dropped to about $40 or less since most games are about $80~$90 on release in Australia.

I will never stop torrenting games.  I will search for hours just to get a working torrent for a game I want to play.  Giants will be releasing FS2013 for PS3 and xbox 360 which is a simulator but it just doesn't feel right for a console
