The ethical questions I often wonder

Post by Sephirothskr » Sat Nov 22, 2014 8:20 pm

I got to thinking. The site has a very strict policy on ever discussing the P word around here. Now.. I look around, at this site, other sites, around the entire internet, most people use the P word to get there anime footage. The amount of people that go and actually buy it I noticed is very slim.. now, that being said, doesn't it sound weird that no one talks about it even though a majority of people do it? It's just kinda weird. I in no way shape or form advocate for it, but I just think it's strange how such common practice is taboo. Does that make sense? I'm just curious to know what everyone's opinion is.

AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T SAY IF YOU DO IT OR NOT. That's not what I'm asking. Just tell me your opinion on the matter, and not what YOU personally do.

I don't care whether people do it or not, although it is good to support the companies by buying the anime. It's against the rules for this site to bring it up, though.

Also, double threads? lol

i think that rule exists for the purpose of avoiding those keywords linking back to this website, as it's illegal (at least where the org is hosted from).
