What is your stance on piracy?

Dude, I already said I don't personally pirate GAMES, look at my profile and all the games I actually OWN. I already said games deserve to be purchased more than movies and music. However, I will say it once more, pirating does NOT cost the companies money, period. You can try to explain it 50 different ways, it still doesn't change the fact that you are just plain wrong.

 I never said you pirated games.

And yes, like I explained it does.  I'll make it simple this time.

1. People say they were never going to buy the game but that's just them justifying the pirating. 
2. Even if they weren't going to buy the game, they are still supporting the practice and supporting those people that make the pirated games available.

So I suppose they don't technically cost them money but they still lose money.
