I'd feel somewhat bad knowing they were on the wrong end of it, but C seemed to be the cutoff as far as those who really mean anything to you... in my mind, there's a pretty good gap between C and D, and there's not a huge difference between screwing over a D friend and a stranger (who might very well be D-friend material).

Online relationships complicate the question a little. I was assuming that a Class-D friend would be someone who you see in social situations with some regularity because you run in the same social circle. You know their name and remember them and they seem nice, but you're not going to seek them out.
This poll is enlightening to me in a depressing way. If I can help a friend by screwing over a nameless, faceless stranger, obviously I will. But I sure wouldn't convert someone in my social circle into an enemy in a situation that is optional.
