what does leeching really mean?

option 1: leeching means to download
option 2: leeching means to take credit for what is not yours
option 3: leeching means to download from 1 place and upload to another
option 4: leeching means to upload


i know the answer.. do you?

there's a lot of opinions on this, and yet only one actually got the correct answer.. two people voted on it, but one said it was accidental.. the answer is Option 1.. yea i know.. you thought it would be more complicated than that.. you thought what you did with the file you leeched mattered.. well it doesnt.. If you download something, anything, you leeched it

i know it sucks, we are ALL leechers.. but its true.. doesnt matter what you do with the file after you get it, it doesnt make you any less of a leecher.. although there's a strong chance it can make you MORE of a leecher, but no less.
