Geez... I guess I've been pirating for nearly a decade now. Started with just googling for direct download tv/anime episodes on a 56k modem. Maybe half a year later a friend taught me how to use IRC and I moved on to downloading that way. 3 years later I found bittorrent and started running that along with using IRC.
Is too long counts? xD
Since 1997, when I got my first computer.
Through the mighty tubes of the internet since 1999 ( 56k yay! :) ).
About 1 year =) .
Might be around 4-5yrs :P
piracy? whats that? :whistle:
Since I copied games from my friends back in the mid 90's for Win 95. Those were the days....
I truly first got into filesharing just before the riaa shut down Napster.
Back when audiogalaxy was in its prime.
5+ years
But i like to use freeware more often now
9 years approximately.
5+ year
when i started to use a computer
For PC since 1987 when I got the brand new Olivetti 286 12 mhz with a huge 40 mb HD .....
That a hard word....I am not feeling like I am doing this, ok....I addmit I am pirating soft for 8 years. As sorry for all that I am telling people that I have bought 3 CD of music (U2,I cant help it) and 3 games (one was brand new, and I have it still, and it was finally for fair price) Price that my only limitation why I at btt.
Pirating will never be caught.....its like trying to have the most up to date computer...just cant keep up with it.
Yeah.. and Transport Tycoon still looks and feels the same...Quote:

About 2-3 years and I've thought that if I eve get a visit from you know who my defence would be.............google download free music etc and see how easy it has become.
Its no more illegal to download your fave track than it is to do 71mph on the M5:w00t:
about 7 years i think so
swapping data cassettes with cracked games for the c64 - 1985.

1-2 years
pirating? what's that?
I've been testing software for ten years now. the first five were the best, scn axxs was not as hard to get as it is now... :(

over 7 years...
CDs with friends since the late 90s, over the internet since ~2000.
Something like 14 years ago. I was 13.
Made a copy of Microsoft Dos on a 5 1/4 inch floppy.
Come to think of it I don't remember ever paying for a Microsoft product.
since i was a kid about 15 years
Man cant remember when I started I do know it was over 5 years ago and I started with using floppies. I think I started with getting a couple of games my parents wouldn't let me buy.
Canīt exactly remember but at least 2-3 years.
Well I started pirating with music, back in the days of Napster on dial-up (Yeah I know alot of you guys probably started way earlier ;)), and shortly after started downloading cracks of varous websites for software.
If I'd have to estimate I'd say 7 years, give or take a year.
20 months and i will never stop ^^
it all began with napster
i been pirating for 11-12 years now i started when it was all done with freedrive and myspace
