Let's face it: It can't truly be stopped in my opinion because of how prevalent it is. For me, it happens nearly every time I play online and it's also part of my playstyle and philosophy. To clarify, it's basically taking another player's kill in order to farm whatever the games pays you with. Sometime you'll get an award for your piracy because it runs off of your kills, but you'll wind up sharing everything except but kill most of the time.

Now I've been on both sides of this fence and I decided that it'll be better that ,"If I killed it by getting the last attack in, the kills (and in some cases, an lot of money) is mine. If someone else takes it, I'll make an mental note of what they've pulled on me so I can apply it in the future. Sure it seems evil, but who really deserves it: The entrepreneur who's fast enough to claim the rewards or the inexperienced player who expects everyone to play by the same set of values? At this point, I would make an comparison that the Cold War was an arms race, but I need to do some research before that happens.

[up]First of all, the words you are looking for is "kill stealing". Second of all, yes, you are being an ass, so stop sounding so proud of it.

Pretty sure the thread title's intentionally misleading. May as well have put it in all caps and added "GAME COMPANIES HATE HIM" on the end

Please use blogs(Google has a very neat and useful one) for your stuff, Rabid Tanker. These are always complaint threads and have no real focus on what a topic can be. There's too many tangents.

...It's weird having so many websites and no way to properly display now, lol.

I am not sure what you hope to accomplish with this topic, since we ban complaint threads.

I admit that it took me a second to realize that you were not referring to stealing games with the 'piracy' in the topic. Good thing I did a second take, because that would have gotten you banned.
