It's the self righteousness that is so annoying. You know what cops, the FBI, ect are dealing with on a day to day basis? And you want to run to them with what? You know the massive underground pirating rings microsoft actually has to deal with? Do you know the shit that's going down in the world, on the street, on your very campus probably? And you're indignation is targetted as some guy modding X-boxes? That's your fucking crusade? Well let me get you a medal son, because you're really sprucing this place up with all your hard work of pulling down flyers and crying about an Xbox modder. You go find yourself a child pornographer on campus and shut him down and maybe somebody around here will give you a pat on the back. But crusading against the gross disgusting injustice of playing Halo2 for free, and throwing accusations of being criminal scum at anyone who dares mock this batman...nay, superman like vigilantism to put an end to this nefarious thug, well you're not going to get much respect for that.

You want to save the industry? Go bomb a couple of gamestops, they are the ones hurting the industry. Not your X-box modding super-villain. But I guess it's not really the state of the industry you're worried about so much as the fact that somebody is doing something bad and getting away with it, huh? Please, if you want praise go to your mom, nobody here is going to think you're helping anything.

This is a classic argument that we always hear from criminals. "There are much bigger crimes going on so leave me alone with what I am doing, even though it is still illegal." Oh, and I live in a very tiny town in Missouri where there is very little crime. The cops mostly write traffic tickets around here bud.
