I love dirty pirate hookers.... wait.... wrong thread.

get a full payment on the site, then don't do the design. ask them what it feels like to have their money ripped off by some random on the internet. the irony will be fantastic..

I think you made the right decision...

If it's not your cup of tea, then don't do it..

you made the right decison

lol I thought you meant a DVD site about pirates...

could just be for a fake pirate site, to push blind clicks...never know

you produce content and have that attitude ? lol You can be in business and have morals and ethics.

Never trust a thief to pay your salary.

I think your initial response is the most correct.

No money is worth supporting illegal businesses. Those that advocate it being just a business decision and, in fact a bad one, to refuse this work, needs to reconsider. It's illegal to sell pirated videos. It's also illegal to sell CP. Would that just be simply a business decision not to design a site for them as well or is it just certain illegal sites that are subject to the "it's just business" decision making process?

Illegal is Illegal. Don't support it.

yeah you did the right thing.

However most of the biggest companies here got started by stealing content.

Doing what you believe is right, is right.

Comparing this situation to Budweiser selling beer and DUI's is wrong.
