No, they shouldn't. But it renders your argument invalid, since a DEV used something you call illegal.
I think you may be reading some of my posts incorrectly, or at least in a manner other than which they were intended,.
The only post that was a direct responce to you was the one regarding GTA and DA:O, and that was not ment in a argumenative way, I was simply pointing out the exceptions to what you stated, I otherwise agree and suppoted your post. Otherwise, nearly all of my posts were made directly at MR. xDarkicex.
I'm also not sure how a dev doing something wrong nullifies my post, it just proved that they do the same thing that they fight against.

You seem to be unable to understand that
DRM DOES NOT PREVENT PIRACY. IT ONLY LOSES THE DEVS MONEY AND TIME
WASTED ON ITS DEVELOPMENT.
I fully understand that and agree with you completely, I'm very against DRM, the only form of I I consider acceptable is a *key* verification, I'm not a fan of having my disk drive occupied as a form of DRM.

You also violate the
EULA by cheating and modding.
Assuming the cheats are not
build in (GTA) or the modding is done with an authorized tool (DA:O).
My
point was that there's a lot of s**t you can do to violate the EULA,
that no one gives a flying f**k about. You cracking your game to remove
the risk of snapping the disk in half (as is the case with ME2's CE
disks) won't bug Bioware in the slightest, despite them officially
saying otherwise.
Exactly you already gave them
their 100$ they don't care if you break those silly rules.
Bioware
lets you upload mods for me2 on this site even though its against the
games rules..
You completely missed my point, I
understand that Bioware/EA is not going to care that you purchased the
game and cracked the DRM for your personal use, I wan't saying
otherwise.
On a side note, who do you think put out the no-cd
cracks/DRM bypasses that you seem so fond of, because it's certainly not
a legitimate orginzation.
What is your point?
your point is Moot and you just admitted it by saying they don't care.
well
I personally get mine from a hacker group with strike rules against
name dropping you got to have coding skills to get in and its on a
strike invite only basis but for most people I would say skidrow makes a
lot of them and their cracks are virus free if you get them from the
source so thats pretty legit if you ask me.
I have made my point very clear by now, go back and check my previous posts. my point is simply that regardless how developers or producers feel, by pirating the game you are breaking rule "A" or by purchasing a game and using a crack of some type you are breaking rule "B". Just because the devs don't care that you broke rule B, but they do care that you broke rule A doesn't change the fact that you still broke the rules.
I'm not a fan of people that pick and choose what rules to follow (it's part of reason I many members of a religion that I will not name, but I suppose that is neither here nore there) if you are going to blast pirates for breaking the rules, you had better damn well follow all the other rules yourself.
Skidrow, Reloaded, and Razer1911 put the cracks out primarily for the "pirates", they are frequently raided and pursued by law enforcement agencys because they are breaking the law, hardly a legitimate orginzation if you ask me, and they don't pretend to be one.
If I'm coming off as incoherent it's because I AM a game developer, though not for Bioware, and I only had about two hours of sleep lastnight.
