[QUOTE="Sean DonCarlos, post: 90020, member: 152"] The only post I recall about piracy on this forum was when a member told one of FarSight's developers to his (virtual) face that FarSight didn't deserve his money and that he should pirate FarSight's software. He got banned for the insult, not for "discussing" (if you want to call it that) piracy. The way I interpreted Mark's post is that he disagrees with my assertion that security cameras are a cost-effective method of loss prevention, and illustrates with several examples, one of which involves his girlfriend's past behavior. He appears to believe that businesses would be better off basically accepting a certain amount of loss due to theft rather than spending the money to invest in a camera system and to do the necessary followup work when the system catches someone shoplifting. While I strongly disagree, his viewpoint is not at all the same as actively encouraging members to go out and shoplift (which would be a bannable offense), nor is it something that warrants editing/deletion of the post. You are at perfect liberty to criticize his views. In fact, I wholeheartedly encourage it, and will probably be criticizing his views myself later today. You are not at liberty to attack the character of the member holding those views (and not his girlfriend, either). That's where your post went wrong and why I removed it. [/QUOTE]
