It doesn't matter if there are ads for it. It's common sense. You stole 700 dollars. That's not legal in my books. And you're still being reviewed for a ban.

How did you not know? It's software you have to pay for. YOu have to pay for a car, don't you? It would be stealing if you took that without paying. Same thing with photoshop, you took it without paying. If you still want to pirate things illegally, fine, but don't tell others that you are doing it.

It goes the same with Xbox Live modding. While there no law saying you can't mod on Xbox Live, other people are paying $50 a year to play a fair game. Modding Xbox Live is unfair for the other players trying to enjoy a fair game. Same with downloading Photoshop for free. Just because it's there doesn't mean you should steal it.


Edit: How were you supposed to know it was illegal? You're very dumb. You stole $700. If you don't think stealing money is illegal, you shouldn't own a computer.

I gave you an example already! Ok, you knew photoshop wasa product you have to pay for. A candy bar is a product you have to pay for. SO if you steal the $1 candy bar it's illegal, right? It's stealing. SO if you steal $700 photoshop, it is the same thing. STEALING.

oh and LOL! It is protected by adobe, genius. Ever heard of a cd key? Yeah, that's what they use to protect it. Of course all the evil software pirates always make cracks and generators. So it is protected by adobe...... :roll:

Wow, you're so fucking dumb.

THEN DON'T BUY IT.

By the way, how the fuck couldn't you not know it's illegal?

It's a bit easy to get such a complicated program for free.
I say a permanent ban.

Watch the language, ok?

And also, if my family didn't have $700, I wouldn't have a computer :P

If I did, I would go without PhotoShop and get GIMP:

It's not up to us. It's the decision of ravnz and the rest of the moderators, I hope you have learned something. Software piracy is wrong. Have a good life.

No, it was because he ADMITTED to pirating photoshop, which is a $700 program.

Ignorance is no excuse. If I were to go kill someone in another country, do you think they would let me off the hook just because I "Didn't know" ?
