Can you explain to me how Used game sales is any different than pirating?

one gives the money to the previous owner / the guy at the store.

the second is not give money at all.

both lead to the publisher / developer not getting anything in return , and to whoever replied to me, i clearly said "support your favourite developer" , its not a charity , its not serving , its not blindly giving money away, its SUPPORTING your FAVORITE developer, so that they make more games you enjoy.

Developers do not get any money from used game sales, but the thing is that with piracy, the developer wouldn't even get a chance to sell his game because people would get infinate copies for free. Whereas with used games, the dev sold a game, and someone got tired of it and sold it. Piracy can do much more large scale damage to a game than used games can, becasue the amount of used games are limited to how many people have sold their games.

And I have no idea what supporting one's favourite developer has to do with anything in this discussion. People don't just buy games from one developer. Supporting one's favourite developer has nothing to do with putting up with bullshit like online passes or not.
