Since I started my net connection but don't tell anybody :P
Probaby when I got my first computer... MS Office 95 was the first software i pirated. My family didnt have the money to buy MS Office 95 (wasted the money on a "new" computer) so my mom borrowed a copy from her friend at work. Installed it and gave back the disk.
This all makes me feel sooooo young. I chose 3-4 years, but I do remember when I was in like 4th grade and my uncle put Commander & Conquer on like 13 floppies. But now I am embarased that my memories aren't so nostalgic.
Damn, I didn't know this poll is public! :O :cry:
I just voted 3 years, but then I remembered all the old Amiga disks I used to copy, so its more like 16+ years...
Since 1998 maybe, thats 8 years
what are u worring about. your at a file sharing board anyway.:lol:Quote:

Ha been doing it before floppy disks... Me and my m8's copied C64 tapes and spectrum tapes... Then moved onto floppy and took Lemmings into school to play on the Acorns also had Moonquake (Earley Bomberman).Quote:

Ahoy there Jim'Lad. Stone the crowws I has 'neva pirated anything, arrrrghhh!
...this is incorrectly phrased, we don't pirate software...we share data...
i think the first stuff i did was winzip as well..
i even remember back in the day when credit card num generators actually worked and i was able to "expand" my horizons lol
wow im old
Sharing is the gift of love.......
Sharing old games anyway, sharing new stuff i have a problem with.
been doing it ever since i got my first computer back in '99.
since bill gates was born..
Since ZX81 & spectrum days, so over 20 years I guess. Still remember doing tape-tape copies on C15 cassettes!
:geek:
I was shown the ropes of pirating back in '92 when I was 5 years old. Thanks dad!
What is this "pirating" that you speak of? :shifty:
Since Kazaa Lite! in 2000.
Too long, prob since 89' roughly
my first attempt at piracy was stealing oregon trail from an apple computer in 1st grade computer lab with a floppy.
in 1999 when I got my 1st computer I happenend upon a site offering programs that cost money... for free. what an idea!! it was all downhill from there :P
well to be honest i've had the net quite recently and i havent really had the chance to actually start pirating
4 yrs
2 years
The first pirated software that I ever had was a keygen for WinRAR back in 1998. I can't remember what version it was. I have never stopped since:shifty:
Since the days of the ZX Spectrum....old habits die hard :)
5+
You know, come to think of it I dont think Ive ever paid for an OS lol.
pirates existed before i was born. so why cant be one too
Way too much... since 4th grade if i'm not mistaken.
a good 5 years, just little stuff before napster though
Comodore 64 with tapes :) That was life ;p
not if I can pirate your phone by then :ph34r:Quote:
