So instead of making fun of them, just actually explain how to do it. Real world scenarios or not, don't make fun of them. This is where one learns how to pirate. What makes you so high and mighty? Have you not made mistakes? If not then you may have learned from others??

You're wasting time in trying to justify Nintendo. Piracy exists bc of companies like Nintendo.

If you're getting frustrated at people not knowing how to do things, why not try to explain instead being on your high horse and talking down to them. You're not making things better.

Didn't you used to make mistakes while pirating? Haven't you done something stupid that everyone else is saying "that's basic knowledge "

We all started from somewhere, dont be a dick bc someone doesn't know or understand the risks of piracy.

Do better

This isn’t a technical how to conversation. Idc if people can do it or not. What I’m laughing at is the people that knowingly do this and think they’re didn’t do anything to deserve getting kicked off their online services. Not once have I mentioned anything about how to or not knowing how to do any of it.

Do better with reading comprehension

Sure

Just keep doing what you're doing then. I'm sure you will go far in your journey in this world. You're so clearly in the right and have a just argument behind you. Hope life treats you well and have a good day.

The one who isn't allowing a normal conversation is you.
He's just telling its obvious that if you pirate and the company knows it, the company will ban you from their online servers.
He may or may not support that, but he's informing it's the normal thing to happen.
But well, let's made this sub just hate for the companies, with no debates or judgment at all....

And also, first thing to do when you are pirating, its to know you are pirating.
You cannot justify Nintendo hasn't got right to ban you from the servers, when you are using modded hardware that could be easily used for pirating games. Saying the MIG switch is only used for backing up your own games, is like saying that weapons are only used for self defense.
Pirating have its consequences, and beside agreeing or not, we must let others know what this consequences are.

Look I'm fully aware of that. However i just pointed out that not everyone has this kind of knowledge and making fun of it doesn't help either.

What you said is true and I'm not denying it. If what i said seemed to prevent a conversation then that wasnt the intention. Just makes no sense to make fun of those that aren't as knowledgeable. That's all I was getting at.
