growing up in the 80s with a Commodore 64, my friends and I never bought any games. They were all "cracked by $some_cracker"

Yeah we literally had a club we’d go to and just copy each others floppies!

As a poor 12 year old they weren’t losing money. I had none!

Grew up around the same time, we would typically change $some_cracker to our nicknames before trading them to the next person.

Me neither, whatever little money we had, it went towards hardware.
