How many people come to JF? Still think adamantly blocking those links doesn't make a difference?

Exactly, you put your and my points across more concisely than I could have ever hoped. People being selfish is part of reality, because selfishness insinuates self-benefit. I don't mean self-benefit on a personal level, I refer to the big picture when I say that: "new anime will always be made", "willing to sacrifice a couple of anime endings to indulge in whole new series".
I'm sorry, but I'm afraid JF doesn't include the exclusive priviledge of watching illegal anime/manga if you don't register a membership.
Edited: Obtw, there are some who apparently think Blood+ = Trinity Blood. I've got baaaad news, they aren't the same, lol. xD
There's no such thing as happy endings, for when you find true love, happiness is everlasting.
