Stealing Good, Stealing Bad???

Why does it seem that we have a double standard in regards to stealing on this board?

A few months ago, people in the Hot Deals forums got banned for saying they ordered a free book and then sold it to Borders for cash.

But just in this last week, we've had people admitting to stealing cable for the recent WWF pay per view and to pirating Photoshop as "protest" for Adobe's DMCA actions. Neither of these threads even garnered mod attention.

It's great to know this kind of theft is just ignored. :disgust:

Golden Bear made the only post in the WWF thread about stealing DirecTV service. He has been warned.

Pretender and Dedpuhl have earned time elsewhere for their more blatant statements in the Adobe thread.

BDawg: Post a link so the mods can take a look at it.

It may be they just haven't seen the thread yet.

From what I've seen, pirating and theft are grounds for at least a lock and maybe even a vacation to think about one's crime.
