I think anything that is with the t&c's of the forum is acceptable. There are boundaries but there's a whole battery of mods will inform if you're close to making them blow a fuse ;)

I'm not denying the guy is (was) a moron, just observing that a fair amount of people on here engage in theft on pretty much a daily basis, so they would do well to tone down the self-righteousness a bit.

If downloading films was physically dangerous, you knew this and you could actually be killed doing it you may have had a point.
Its like the point someone made earlier about the theft of his car, If I was in that situation and someone had stolen my car, and in their haste had killed themselves I would be incredibly happy though only if they had done this in a way that hadn't harmed anybody else. Poetic justice.
People don't deserve to die for theft, people don't deserve to die for stupidity but if people cause their own and only their own demise through a combination of the two I'm all for it.

No one forced him to break into an electricity substation and no one made cut a cable carrying 30000 volts of electricity, it was his own greed and stupidity that made him do it.

Hopefully this will serve as a warning to other like minded people of the possible consequences of such actions.

I rather doubt it as their greed for making money at other peoples expense will see to that.

Nowhere i`ll bet but surely the previous posters referring to "pikeys" would have been the better people to direct that question at?

It`s a shame he`s put his family through such tragedy but personally i have absolutely no sympathy for the numpty in question. If you play with fire then you do risk getting burnt.

My reference to Pikeys was not in relation to this thread but the theft of Virginmedia Fibre cable which contains no copper but will cause major outages in areas that it occurs in.;)

Well I don't think he'd be that incredibly happy, the car would probably be a write off. :Sprint:
