So yes I know pirates are bad, I myself only done it once for a program I already had, but how bad is it here? Will the mods ban you if you even say something like I just did? :\
Only for links/discussion threads of it I think.
The mods here will ban you for even hinting at pirating something.
I don't know how its handled here but i guess its bad here too and maybe mods would ban you. but well who would tell something like this to people?
I think piracy is only considered piracy if you do not buy the product at all.
Example: If you pre-order the game on steam and get a leaked copy, but you can't wait for the official release.
Above.
But let's say I have a Half-Life 2 CD, with a code, but I lose the CD. I should get to download an ISO of the CD from some torrenting site, as long as I still use MY code.
People get banned for saying something like:
"I torrented Crysis"
It's only like a one day ban though.

What, Half life 2 would be linked to your steam account, why would you need the CD?

If you want to be safe about it, check the MD5 or SHA-1 sum of the torrent's iso and compare to a known good copy of the game. I'm not sure where you would find the known good sum though.

It was an example.
Just don't talk about piracy on fp and you won't get banned.
