Our little instance is closing to 6 months of operations and it occurs to me I never really asked for some open feedback from our peeps. So I wanted to start a discussion to see your concerns and comments in general. So tell me, in the context of the divisions by zero, what bothers you, what pleases you, what would you like to see improved.

Feel free to share your thoughts about anything.

Dbzer0 is a pirate instance. I don't think you will find much sympathy for copyrighted artwork here.

I do agree, though, you can be a pirate and still see the necessity in copyright no matter how warped it currently is, the kind who challenge copyright to change it and not just ignore it, those who try and keep the market healthy in their own unique way.

Though, while having seen some, I'm still unsure how many and how vocal they are on this instance.

EDIT: I guess I did butcher this comment really bad, that's what I get for trying and compress 4 paragraphs down to 2. I'm pretty much trying to say, that while copyright, as it is handled right now, is most definitely counter productive to society, the idea behind it does have some merit. It's not a black/white situation. Furthermore, there exist pirates who also try and care about the market, not necessarily focused on copyright, but simply caring about those whose content they pirate.

Copyright is evil

Not really, no.
