Don’t Humiliate Yourself Complaining to The Pirate Bay

torrentfreak.com — The ‘legal threats’ section of The Pirate Bay is where record labels, movie companies, software house and general anti-pirates have their complaints posted after the staff on the site have ridiculed them. A new set of complaints has appeared in the last few days - some of the most cringe-worthy ever.

  • killswitch, on 06/25/2008, -18/+218I want to hug you in a non-sexual way and tell you that you make my heart burst of joy and cuddle up like a cute little cookie monster and ask for more milk.
  • peaceninja, on 06/25/2008, -4/+192Peter (a swede) speaks better english than Indy (an American).

  • fictionalOne, on 06/25/2008, -4/+125I hereby authorise all diggers to download illegal files.
  • ShempRider, on 06/25/2008, -0/+104Ian Morrow's writing style reminds me of those Kenyan guys who keep emailing me for my bank information.
  • OomBok, on 06/25/2008, -1/+103Who the hell is Indiana Gregg?
  • inactive, on 06/25/2008, -1/+85haha ***** dorks

    *puts jacket on*
  • beloitpiper, on 06/25/2008, -0/+83So I checked the URL she provided...nobody is seeding that torrent.

    Haha, she claims people are stealing her copyright, and nobody is even downloading it!!!
  • staplez, on 06/25/2008, -2/+79Now I know who this Indiana Gregg person is. DANG IT HER MARKETING IDEA WORKED!!!!!!
  • Zapple, on 06/25/2008, -3/+74I read one time that an independent developer made an application and it was uploaded to TPB without his permission. He contacted them himself with a very nice letter letting them know if his situation. They removed the torrent for him.
  • alexforcefive, on 06/25/2008, -0/+61Phew, thanks man. Is this authorisation retroactive?
  • rexykik, on 06/25/2008, -0/+60"Happily you aren't as popular as Minnova and bit-torrent."

    I can just imagine GLaDOS saying this.
  • toastfox, on 06/25/2008, -3/+63Homerowed!
  • inactive, on 06/25/2008, -5/+65Well, you obviously aren't among them.
  • raada, on 06/25/2008, -2/+59I like when the lawyer guy said "Oh poor us, we are going broke cuz of you"... and then later the woman saying "I'm a millionaire...".
    Classic!
  • dsmx, on 06/25/2008, -2/+55If people don't want your product even when it's free your in serious trouble.
  • SeaweedWater, on 06/25/2008, -4/+55Another reason to love The Pirate Bay.
  • chaoswings, on 06/25/2008, -0/+51Yeah I remember that. Just goes to show that if you are respectful toward people they will do the same (well, the majority of the time anyway). Sending angry letters and threats just prompts people to go on the defensive and snap back.
  • FatLoser, on 06/26/2008, -0/+50unless he's using a dvorak
  • JirkJiggler, on 06/25/2008, -14/+56There's probably at least a hundred nationalities that speak better english than most Americans.
  • K3ITHK, on 06/26/2008, -1/+42I read the article too.
  • LeviTheSmith, on 06/25/2008, -0/+39You make three very good points.
  • gannondork, on 06/25/2008, -0/+38http://static.thepiratebay.org/legal/tpb-torrentsd ...

    they have a graph for ppl still though they said they lost it :D
  • inactive, on 06/26/2008, -0/+38I believe you mean "qwerty". Can't be that hard to misspell since it's the first six letters on the top row of letters. :)
  • TaintBrush, on 06/25/2008, -2/+35He's a millionaire!!!!1
  • str1fe, on 06/25/2008, -2/+32At least get the punctuation right.

    ***** THE RIAA!
  • MrPingu, on 06/25/2008, -0/+30Why would anyone? It sucks.
  • Latigoliath, on 06/25/2008, -4/+33With a keyboard or with a big trout
  • tetch, on 06/25/2008, -1/+28Seeders:0 Leechers:0 - I'd be pissed off too.
  • vypergts, on 06/25/2008, -0/+26Dear Indiana Gregg,

    Stop being a fascist tool.

    Sincerely,
    The Internet
  • mossblaser, on 06/25/2008, -6/+31Only in your American pig-english.
  • FeloniusMonkey, on 06/25/2008, -1/+26Any country renown for having the world's hottest bikini team, and the most kick-ass muppet ever, obviously doesn't need to listen to anyone else.

    Sweden to MPAA: "Bork, bork, muhfuggin BORK, biatches!"

  • daverave999, on 06/26/2008, -0/+25He's a woman.
  • pAq6Swad, on 09/16/2008, -2/+26TorrentFreak must be hurting for stories. I mean, ThePirateBay.org's legal threats page was always hilarious, but it isn't exactly news. . .
  • dcmjzero, on 06/25/2008, -2/+26spamming digg is a bad idea... http://digg.com/tech_news/The_Most_Hated_Comment_o ...
  • Yazilliclick, on 06/25/2008, -1/+24Must say it's great advertising. I sure didn't know who Indiana Gregg was before this .
  • shenmueguru, on 06/25/2008, -2/+24Even with 100% sense-making complaint, unlike the first example, they would still find a funny way to ridicule it :D
  • sockpuppets, on 06/25/2008, -0/+22Said Yazilliclick to a talking sock.
  • inactive, on 06/25/2008, -0/+21Thank you sir.
  • VipperOfVipp, on 06/25/2008, -1/+20i hope there will always be a "piratebay" to infuriate the MPAA
  • CalamariAce, on 06/26/2008, -0/+18"Hello and thank you for contacting us. We have shut down the website in
    question.

    Oh wait, just kidding. We haven't, since the site in question is fully
    legal. Unlike certain other countries, such as the one you're in, we have
    sane copyright laws here. But we also have polar bears roaming the
    streets and attacking people :-(. "
