Someone may have already addressed this but, are we in danger from Dana technically for watching fights here on linker? Is linker itself in the warpath of the status elite?

i alluded to this earlier but i don't think so i think he is talking about the people who stream the live events as the ppv is going on witch is directly taking money out of Zuffa's pocket, we dont get the vids until well after the PPV airs, so what ever money they could make they already made it by the time we watch it. Plus if he was coming after us we would be the Ace of Spades priority number one. Especially cuz of all the shit we talk, i dont think hes interested in us cuz were not directly streaming it were getting the free internet tv version

If I remember correctly, doesn't the UK have UFC events for free? And I'm watching UK tv on my PC, is that breaking the law?

Dana is a tool who has never achieved anything except become friends with really rich people. He went to college but dropped out. Complete tool who was friends with the right person at the right time. Very narrow minded person who only sees dollars. If he was one of us he would be doing the same thing. However if you were him wouldn't you be saying the same thing?

kudos to Dana White. Its funny how many people think piracy is harmless. Movies/television are a business, not just a form of entertainment. Once consumers start to suffer just as much as the professionals whose pension plans will start suffering from piracy--maybe they'll stop stealing.

yeah....and dana's really, really hurting financially.
robin hood started this all.
deal with it.
why would you side with the king?

totally missing the point, dude. it's not about Dana. It's about the creative individuals who produce a product that we steal on the internet. Where do you think retirement/pension plans come from? Residuals. Without residuals, no benefits for these directors, assistant directors, unit production managers, etc. When we steal from the internet, those who create are missing out on residual income generated.

And whoever said, "we've been doing it this long and we're fine." Key word is "we." As in the consumers who steal. What about the professionals who made a living off of what we stole? Hey, wanna go buy a Tower Records? Oh wait....we can't.

I've never paid for an MMA event in my life Come at me Dana.

retirement/pension plans?
people actually believe that money is there for them, but by the time we'll be ready to collect, good luck.
it's pretty much disappearing with the current generation.

The itunes idea sounds good. Have fights for sale, that way we don't have to buy the entire card and only watch the fights we want to see. Until then I'm a criminal; outlaw as i like to call it.

ok dana, enough with the used cars salesmen pitch, youre not pocketing 10 million a month on your petty 10-20 percent share of the company, ripping people off, getting them to buy stuffed animal ufc fighters they dont need, charging 45 per ppv to provide yourself with a ticket to the moon?
