I've seen in a few topics where people get shunned because they've downloaded an ISO and claim to have the game. I don't understand what the point of this is. I know that in Canada, where I live, if you own the physical media of a piece of copyrighted material, you are not only allowed to rip it, you are allowed to download a dump off of the internet as a method of "making a backup". Why punish those for following their own country's laws?

People are free to do what they like, they're just not free to discuss it here. There are several reasons why allowing people to openly discuss stealing game software is not a good idea, I'm sure you're able to understand that. If you need further explanation, search the forum, there are several piracy related discussions to be read.
