I've told you guys (or someone...somewhere... don't remember) bittorrents should be avoided just as much as avoiding ancient things like Emule.
Direct file sharing sites are 100% safer.

If I could find everything I wanted via DDL I would do that over torrenting, but it's not as easy to find some things.

Thankfully, I have never used torrents in my life.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

I used them to pirate a few games but recently I've only used it to get my Humble Indie Bundle games.
So what makes torrents less safe than direct downloads?
I guess I'd just assumed the opposite, but now I'm curious.

Torrents are a lot my reliable for me considering the speed and stability of my internet connection, plus it's more likely that a torrent would last longer than a DDL. Oh that and me not having to download multiple zipped folders of a several gig file.

RedTube?

Comcast and 2 of the other major companies have been cracking down on torrents for a month now. I wouldn't say they are more reliable, just look at warez-bb.org and you'll find 100s of diffrent links for the same thing. RapidShare doesn't't even have a wait time or captcha now, and it was going a 2mb a second for me.

XVideo?

I wonder what happens if I'm caught torrenting stuff from *LEGASP* OC Remix, since they only offer their albums through torrents.

I think it's only against the law when you're torrenting copyrighted stuff.

Xvideo's a crapshoot. If I'm not careful what search terms I use, I could wind up clicking on a link leading to a video from Boku no Pico. D:

What's the matter, too weak to handle Boku no Pico? :P

Either way, there's tons of other streaming sites dedicated to porn.
