The Golden Rules of P2P

Lately I've been seeing some articles elsewhere about rules to follow as a pirate, and they seem...off. So take from this what you will, but here's my official list of Golden Rules to follow while engaging in P2P activities.

Rule 1: Always, ALWAYS Seed to at Least a 1:1 Ratio

Seriously, if you don't follow this rule, you are going to Pirate Hell, where you will burn for an eternity. Upload as much as you download, or you are effectively killing P2P. This setup RELIES on Pirates sharing with each other, and without it, it will fail. If you don't seed to at least a 1:1 ratio, you are a thief among thieves. That's pretty low, mang.

Rule 2: Never Upload False or Harmful Torrents

If you do, you're a faggot. It's pretty straightforward.

Rule 3: If You Can Afford it, at the Very Least CONSIDER Buying It

It really doesn't hurt to pay for something once in a while. Support the people who spend hard work into their projects, if you think they really deserve it and you have the cash.


Follow these Three Golden Rules, and you're all set. If you break them, especially the first two, you can go burn in hell, you scurvy dog.
