Quick to Judge GTA San Andreas prob

[Punky]

I saw in a former thread that someone was having probs running their GTA SA from their Hard Drive.
Right away people assumed that it was a pirate copy and all that stuff.
Well I just got GTA San Andreas last night - yes an ORIGINAL LIGIT one. I copied it to the HD and it would not run. I patched the default.xbe and it still would not run (just as he said - it went back to the dashboard).
I put the files onto DVD and it ran fine there. So it runs fine so long as it's not on the HD.
I'm going to go home and try that Region thing fix to see if that fixes me up - but my point is this...

I thought someone (don't recall the nametag) was pretty quick to jump to conclusions about it being a pirate copied disc and took the moral high ground and proceeded to chastise everyone for even being part of the conversaion. Perhaps the profliferation of pirate stuff is normal around here given the environment we in here (mod chips etc) - but in the end - all it did was prove someone's rash judgement and ultimately their lack of knowledge (at least on this particular game).

Surprised the poor guy with the problem didn't banned as a result of the rash judgement. Then again.... maybe I should shut up now before I am?
