I have followed the posts of many here and it is pretty easy to spot the profile of the pirates taking the liberty to complain in this holy of holy forum.

First of all, the colour of your post hurts my eyes, so I'll make the quote in regular black font. (an absurd choice of colour BTW, I don't understand the need to make the whole posts shine like that)
Second, pirates couldn't care less about DRM. It won't affect them! Someone will crack SH5, and they'll be none the wiser. On the other hand, it's we legit users who complain, because it's us that the system will bother, not the pirates. And if it bothers the pirates, what good does that to us? We'll still be screwed by it, having paid for ALL the SH games that have been coming out.
And that goes for me, my flotilla buddies, or anyone around here sensible enough to not pirate a game that already has a low level of budget and sales, and that needs strong support in order to survive. You really think that real subsimmers want to screw their sims because of a few bucks? You may think I'm just being naive, but I really think that, those that matter, don't pirate the SH games, that piracy comes only from casual gamers who couldn't give a crap about what happens to the game, or the development studio.
