If you're going to act this way, just admit and accept the fact that you're a gigantic asshole with absolutely no ethical standards. I mean basically you'd do the wrong thing if it was legal and the only reason you're not doing it is because it is easily traced and you could be shafted. That's incredibly selfish. Grow some nuts and do the right thing. What does having balls have to do with returning a phone? Do I need to be brave to call someone and go "hi, I found your phone". And the reason I would keep the phone and use it was because maybe I need it more than they do if they just left it on the floor to be crushed. My morals are based on law. If I can do it legally why should I feel bad about it? | ||

it doesnt matter who was the previous owner of the phone either. even if it was bill gates. how easily they can replace that lost item should not even be entered into the equation. nor is what happened to your sister. but heck, if you feel that the world is unfair and dont give a damn... why do you even bother seeking absolution here. | ||

And Cpt.obvious, No I would not rape little children if it were legal. I have no desire to. It would never be legal anyways even in the worst of societies. You can't compare shit like that to something like finding a phone on the ground. Its totally unrelated. | ||

If they just leave it on and wait for someone to use the service thats like entrapment. Besides I don't have to return the phone. I just don't have to use their sim card. I have lost my phone before and had it returned and I didn't give that person shit. Why should I go out of my way and return it to them (especially since a normal person would not have been able to figure out who owned the phone)? Man I wish I knew some Law people who weren't biased towards karma and 'doing the right thing'. How do you figure it's entrapment if they leave it the sim activated? So basically if i leave a bag of money out on my sidewalk and someone takes it i am entrapping them? Come on. Even if someone is an idiot with their money/sim card, you don't steal. | ||

I was comparing it to entrapment, I never said it WAS entrapment. The phone has been sitting dead without a charge for a week or 2 in my friends house and today I plugged it in and the service is not suspended. It seems like either A, they want someone to use the phone so they can catch them and sue them or send them to jail. (which is entirely more fucked up than anything discussed here in this thread) or B they're stupid and don't care, or know that they can suspend the service to defend themselves. Snowbird, I'm only trying to argue my point at this time, some of these guys are just so brainwashed and closed minded its ridiculous. | ||

this might be the reason why we think that returning it is not only the RIGHT thing to do, but also the OBVIOUS thing to do. if you follow this advice, you're backed by the advice given by parents all over the world. | ||

You can't justify shit like that with something like "they are rich so they don't care" or "they are dumb they were asking for it". Its totally retarded. | ||

Your reading comprehension is terrible if you think otherwise. Its totally different than hot-wiring a car, what the fuck are you talking about? Rofl If you seriously believe what you have replied to me, then you are a fucking moron. I made an analogy, and you ask what it has to do with anything? It's a fucking analogy, it's a parallel idea with different physical fucking objects. Go back to school you illiterate fuck. You don't support any of the shit you say, you just say it and then call other people stupid. At least I gave you the courtesy of an explanation, but I can see now that you're such a clown that it makes no difference were I to punch you in the face or give you a dissertation. | ||

No, its a shitty phone regardless if it was broken or not, I don't want it. I'll probably just toss it in the garbage. | ||

You seem to feel this is no big deal because you are under the assumption that they are purposely not canceling their account. Maybe they think the phone is lost. Maybe it belongs to a parents child who is afraid of confessing they lost it. Maybe they live in an area of the city where people return shit. Maybe it is owned by someone who has more than 1 cell phone and has yet to even realize they lost it. Maybe it is owned by someone who has a more important job than you and is so busy they simply havent had the opportunity to decide the best course of action. Maybe it belongs to an old lady who doesnt know wtf to do at all. Maybe they already have canceled it and their provider is simply allowing a grace period of usage until the end of the month. Just because I leave my door unlocked to my house doesnt mean that you are allowed to walk inside "or else if i didnt want you in i would have locked the doors". Anyway Im not sure if you were ever on my good side or not, but you have instantly ruined any credibility you had with me and probably most of this forum with your faggotry, and I hope I never accidentally talk to you or respond to one of your threads again. And to think, just the other day you were kindly asking for assistance with your ipod. Loser. | ||
