Hey, it's not easy to delude yourself. If pirates can trick themselves into thinking Warcraft was made famous by piracy, back in 1994 when most schools and homes didn't even have internet access, give them some props!

 

Well genius think about this. Back in 1994 where the hell would you buy a copy of warcraft? You didnt see it in walmart. There were none on the shelves of Target. Certainly werent any in Price Club (aka Costco) and there was no Best Buy or Frys. Or wait, are you going to tell me that people knew how to use the internet back then and looked at BBS. Most people didnt even realize that computer games existed back then. We had nintendo and computers were for work and then I saw someone playing this game and the rest was history. I talked about it. We all had copies. When WCII was released we all searched high and low to buy a copy and even then it was a struggle. Moral of the story, piracy did not start with the internet... you twit.
