I have to agree with the premise that the poll is flawed. What pirate would admit it - even anonomously? With that said, I think the vast majority of regulars are legit owners, and the DRM/OSP debate in the SH5 thread demonstrates it. If those of us incensed by the copy protection were pirates, we wouldn't care, because it will be "cracked". But we do care, because we want to use our cash to support what we believe in. That is why I am disappointed that I will have to wait till SH5 gets unlocked by UBI before I can play it.
As for Neal's comment on SH4 and its piracy "easter egg", I would note that if memory serves, the majority of people who did ask about the "no eyes" thing were not regular, establishd members, but mostly were newer folks who found a site that might have good info on the game. I could be wrong on that, but its what I recall thinking at the time.
