The posts did not discuss piracy, only in-game dynamics. That's the point.
The author also literally made up the lie that ONE minute after adding his torrent, look at all these pirates, this is a screenshot ONE minute after adding the torrent!
Screenshots show torrent added a day ago.
Also, it's neither here nor there but I personally would have linked to the posts in question in the write-up. However this is a matter of style and I don't hold it against the author.
