[QUOTE="HarveyHouston, post: 9758219, member: 483090"] IMHO, there should be more "we trust you" DRM-free sites like GOG.com. Heck, even a bunch of the Steam games are not tied to Steam (meaning they can still run without the Steam client if fully installed). The problem is too many companies wanting DRM to protect themselves. You know what? Piracy is actually a form of flattery - if your stuff is good enough that people will do anything they can to get their hands on it... then you've made it to the top. Relax! Don't let these pirates scare ya! Entice them to buy the games. Offer discounts. Advertise exclusive content they can get [I]for free [/I]that they wouldn't get in pirating. If they have hacking skills, give them the opportunity to take on finding code exploits as a job - with good pay! Understand that pirates aren't usually trying to be nefarious; most of them just want your stuff and can't afford it. It's actually good business ethics to help pirates not be pirates instead of just throwing the ban-hammer on them. [/QUOTE]

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
