no, I was 15.. well I still am, it wasn't that long ago, and I had been torrenting for 3 years, I believe, nothing ever happened. I also didnt know anything about private trackers, I tried getting into it once, but practically anything that costs money I would have to ask my parents for, and I'm too shy for that. Anyways, I was always saying "yeah I'm gonna get a VPN..." never did. Now my parents had to pay the price for that. I might get a VPN when I get my own bank account and stuff.. in 3 years, so I'm responsible for it.
Well sorry to hear that dude, I was also probably fifteen when I got my letter from Verizon, maybe 16 or 17. Don't let the passion for sticking out to the man fade, but not doing it on Mom and Dad's Internet is commendable.
