The problem with the IT’S STEALING argument is that it assumes the copyright holders are the perfect stewards of their own
Exactly. I already bought (well, my parents did, I was a little kid) original copies of Super Mario Bros, Legend Of Zelda, Sonic, etc. once. I'm not gonna fork over more cash for a DIGITAL version of the same goddamn game that was bought and paid for decades ago. The companies have already made their money from it, they're not getting another dime from me. Same goes for other software, music, movies, etc.
Trannies are hedonistic cumsoomers by definition, all troons that are both gamers and Potter fans got the game on pre-order and just lied about it. Their entire persona is built on lies, lying about a game is nothing.
Agree 100%. I would guarantee that a vast majority of the trannies seething over the "Terf Wizard Game" were the first in line for the pre-order as soon as it was announced, their "hatred" for JKR be damned.
We used to assume in the olden days that every woman online was a man until proven otherwise for just that reason. The current generation seems to have forgotten this basic tenet to
I don't blame the women for hiding themselves either. For years they were either harassed or bombarded with propositions by neckbeard incels the minute they were found out to be females. Now, ever since Gamergate and the troon infestation over the past decade or so, "women" are more out in the open in online presence. The problem is, more often than not, the "women" you see aren't real women at all.
Has anyone considered that Empress is just a persona run by a Chinese group?
– It's the Chinese who were the first to crack Denuvo, they should have the know-how
– The rants about Indians sound weirdly specific. I mean, everyone who had contact with IT poos probably shares the feelings but why talk about it unprovoked?
– Chinx don't give a fuck about the feelings of gays and trannies
– The unhingedness and seemingly conflicting messages from different periods can be explained by a few people not having agreed on every detail or the person running the public front having changed
IMO it makes sense.
Unless its the greatest psyops of all time, I dont think its the Chinese at all with the Empress cracks. Not to PL too much, but i spend quite a bit of time on MHH auto, Mega.nz and other "alternative" software sites. To say that Eastern Europe/former Soviet bloc countries are a hub for hacked software would be an understatement. To the point where I've had to download cyrillic language fonts and translator packs to decipher what the fuck they're saying sometimes. And when they DO speak English, other than the schizophrenic drama and lashing out at troons, alot of the people on those forums tend to sound just like Empress, as far as their clipped language and phrasing. Personally, my thought is that "Empress" is almost certainly based in some Slavic region shithole. The speed at which the cracks have gone out either screams (legit) autistic savant, or a small group of dedicated people with one spokesman for the group. As far as the "20-something hot Russian female" that everyone here seems to get worked up over, while that's entirely possible, I think if anything it's just obfuscation to cover their tracks, with a dash of simpbux as well. Ut then again I voted for dog on a computer, because why rhe fuck not? 🤷‍♂️ If Empress is indeed from somewhere other than vodka-land, then colour me impressed, they've done their homework and hats off to them for the great psyops. IDGAF if it's male, female, troon, whatever, the amount of seething that its causing the trannies of pReddit is worth all of the sperging about it on here.
That reminded me of what happened to the Tron Evolution game (A game that I loved as a kid). Basically, because Disney didn't pay the DRM loicense nobody could play the game if they hadn't booted it once recently. So whoever reinstalled it or was new to the game was fucked.

That's why I will always support piracy and hate DRM. You can't expect big corpos to foot the bill for the invasive DRM that they put on their game so you can play the game that you are supposed to own.
Old-school DRM is fine with me when physical media was the only player in the game. It was even neat how some developers got creative and wove it into the storyline of a game (Meryl's CODEC frequency on the back of the CD case, or the dial-a-pirate on Monkey Island). But the invasive DRM that relies on an always-connected technology or is rendered useless when a server somewhere is arbitrarily shut off is completely asinine and should be illegal. I can do nothing but shake my head incredulously when I see people spending huge amounts of money on these mobile games, because they can be shut off on a whim, and fuck you if you want a refund for it.
 
I'm confused how this thread went from speculating on EMPRESS' gender to half the users assuming the other half hate women in tech. The only thing I saw to be insulting was someone implying a troon's writing style is similar to a woman's. Troons type like schizophrenics, and nobody deserves to be compared to that.

It's this faggy reflexive thing in modern culture where if you say "a woman didn't do this", the implication MUST be "all women are too innately inferior to accomplish this" and the honor of m'ladies has to be defended.
 
I'm rating this post autistic, because I am a male feminist and fully agree women can be retarded too.
Women have different ways of being retarded, and software piracy is so specifically male a way of tarding out that I assume it's a male.

Meanwhile it's more yes, some women are retarded enough to be able to do this thing, but when women are this retarded, they usually prefer different forms of retardation. This is a very male form of retardation.
We're talking about the statistical likelihood of the gender of an autist doing thousands of hours of specialty binary reverse-engineering for free over several years.

Try to keep up.
Bitches need to learn to get their Bayes Theorem on.

First off, very based and very redpillled. Though if anybody believes Empress is a 23 year old woman, you are a thirsty motherfucker or extremely gullible. I expect him to just be a slav in his mid thirties that larps as a woman since that makes said retarded thirsty men give him shit.
This quote being the prime example, do you think this hipothetical guy would have dumped even half that cash if he knew it was a dude? Fuck no, he created a mental image of a cute UwU woman and this is his autistic way of courting. It's slmost like if you believers hadn't played MMORPGs when chat was the form of communication.
Yup. This is what a "real" woman would say.

And this sample is just weird coming from an honest to god woman. Basically, trusting his word for it is fucking stupid in this context. Christ, did you never learn "tit pics or GTFO"?
I'm still not playing the game bought or pirated, unless a mod comes out getting rid of the historically inaccurate non-whites and that Troon character. Only then
You are in luck frend
Here you will find some mods to make the experience more to your liking. Do keep in mind that paler skins and no blakks mods do not stack. I've also noticed a weird gloss on the skin of my character sometimes which is a pretty pale tone (though remove the mod and it's cartoonishly brown).
Buddy, about half the users on the farms here are 100% female. It may not be explicitly stated, but its in the subtext. Same goes for lurkers. Just because males are louder doesn't mean women aren't as frequent.

Just as many women as men like reading about autistic/schizo cows and farm them. There's women outside of BP and Stinkditch too who farm and lurk those threads.

An internet gossip site is inherently chalk full of women. I cannot believe in The Current Year we are having this discussion.
Sure Jan.

I could imagine a lot of ladies lurking, but actively participating, seeing how varied the forums are I find it more debatable. And well, for me this is the ol wild west of the internet where I only have your word for it (and that's how I fucking like it and if you are smart I will never have anything outside of your word for it).
 
For real it's already too much they leave their tag on the file names 🙄
I think that it's more an evolution of earlier hacker/cracker exploits. Ego and reputation has always been a huge part of the hacking/programming industry and sometimes the hacker's names were as "famous" as their exploits, "T33kid" "Anonymous" "lulzsec/Sabu" etc. You even used to see people tagging themselves in their song rips from Napster back in the day. So I would venture to guess that the outrage and drama between Empress and fitgirl over uncredited repacks is probably real, and even more of a reinforcement that Empress isn't some 20-something girl. Aside from the previously discussed topics about playing games as a kid where the math doesn't add up to "her" stated age, most younger people of that purported talent level are probably either white-hat making real money without having to worry about the feds, or scamming crypto with zombie computers, and can't be arsed to worry about their "reputation" in the counterfeit software scene.
 
It's obvious that Empress is not a woman buta man. Someone in a post from earlier said it's a bunch of guys from 4chan. I agree. It's not one guy but multiple guys and they clearly spend a lot of time on 4chan and definitely the Pol board. They use all the same talking points. Especially the part about modern men being less than masculine. This is some shit from Pol. It goes with the whole scare about masculinity being in decline. Like fear mongering about penis sizes getting smaller and drops in testosterone levels. It's basically bullshit that feeds into fears of men that aren't very smart. I read some where there is a country in Asia that every few years males will swamp doctors and hospitals with concerns about their penises shrinking. Like literally showing up in doctors offices and hospitals saying their penises are getting smaller. It's basically the same shit here in the West but they use testosterone levels. It's all just a grift to make by selling your products that aren't needed will have no effect or could possibly ruin your health. It's exploiting people's fears and concerns for profit. Like the snake oil salesmen of the late 19th century.
 
Wow, didn't knew being a pirate had so much to do with faggotry.
oh trust me brother
half of discords are filled with literal reddit anarchy faggots who are also furries
it gets much deeper and i didnt enter much further
if the kiwis wanna enter the abyss, it might be worth documenting
empress on the other is just stale news, the bitch cracked man eater rather than cracking judgement and people where pissed off
She aslo removed neir replicant crack vote because hate anime lmao (source reddit)
she also throttled the rdr2 download speed to "teach people a lesson"
i miss volski and wish more denuvo crackers come to the scene
Seeing her the only denuvo cracker is so insufferable except for this one time which i support but deep down i never cared about hogwarts
 
Of course there could be an autistic enough woman to do this, and slavic women have mouths fouler than a sailor's anus.

But the chances of them ending up in this exact position is very remote. But being a cute girl uwu online is a sure way to simpbux, and I can totally see why a hacker group would go for it.

it's only post 2020 era my fren.
i miss razor
This seems to be a trend with this particular group. Highly doubt it is one slavic woman.
this whole shit started with fittranny and people wondering if that tranny was actually a woman, before that nigger stepped in the scene no one gave a fuck because the groups and members namings all sounded like retarded usernames and they gave no fucks about what did they have between their pants, only cared about the warez release being quality shit.
you know something that is still funny to this day? non-newtonian spider man is simply arabic localization, it doesn't remove anything and makes the game think you are in arabic regions while still retaining whatever language pack you pick.
and nexus threw a huge fucking fit about this, it's like the chinese censorhip tier on cp2077, hue.

I disagree. All tranny men are failed men or homosexuals coping. If the only difference was cosmetic, why would they "feel" like women? Why is it a feeling if this logic exists.
I read too many testimonies of trans and ex-trans people of both biological genders. Th ex-trans people do not normally mention any fetishism, but rather how their older elatives abused them or otherwise roped them into 'experiments with gender', that is, troongrooming. I also read about some studies that most teenagers, especially biological girls, who have 'trans feelings' outgrow them later in life through puberty. After all, you are going to be 'dysphoric' if your body and mind are suddenly changing to something else.
I say that a lot of trans people merely have autogynesexuality (and, in theory, autoandrosexuality), yet I also say that a lot of trans people have true and honest gender identity disorder.
 
How would the reaction have been if instead of this, the crack team had posted a fuck JK message?
