Original post:
Microsoft deleted my Minecraft account. This is why I pirate
A surfer of the high seas makes a post about his Minecraft account getting locked because they didn't migrate their Mojang account to a Microsoft account.
Mods say:
Both have merits, and yet everyone is now slinging insults and getting personal. Just ridiculous.
some threads:
-Strawman:
-Whiny idiot:
-Dumbshit:
What if someone had quit the game and decided to come back to the game? Dumbshit argument
Don't ignore emails/the hundreds of reminders that were all over the internet?
-Pirating:
-Peepeeriding:
The company peepeeriding here's very crazy. Sucks for you man! Maybe try sending them an email
Peepeeriding a company that gives you spyware for free on windows 11 insane.
-Cuckery:
so much cuckery in replies on a piracy subreddit of all places
Comments are really split nearly 50/50, with highly upmarseyd and downmarseyd posts on each side. it seems like the juiciest ones may have been deleted, but the arguments and multi-paragraphs responses are strong with this one.

1. Migrating was actually a pain in the butt if you only had a simple Microsoft account and not whatever xbox thing or something. It was buggy af, required you to login with different credentials to several places, not documented at all. Like, something you could spend 20 frustrating minutes on, not 20 seconds clicking the "ok migrate me" button and entering your new account name.
2. However old school Minecraft doesn't have single player DRM, no? It's only need for multiplayer and maybe for updates IIRC. So to all the people who are, like, boo, I want to physically own a copy of the game on my computer, not rent it from the developer subject to its whims: you have your wish, you can play your copy in perpetuity, but if you lose it that's your problem, you can't expect the developer to give you a replacement (unless you put in the minimal effort to maintain your account on their site).
