The magic word is "roms"

[flow``]

here's the deal guys
you mention distributing roms, saying i have rom links, basically, any indication of rom transfering will not be tolerated. You say the magic words and your instantly banned, no questions asked, all judgements are final.

Good thing. Not only have I grown extremely tired of people asking for ROMs, but also the guys that are throwing it all around that "they have a great source" or "they have an URL that has lots of good ROMs".

[Kakarot]

LOL :D I remember when rom requests were allowed and almost no one ever did (I guess they thought the boards had been taken over by FBI or something). Now that it is not allowed (again) people seem to request roms left and right...."Where can I find game X" every two seconds!

Ironically game X is almost always WWF No Mercy

IMO wrestling-games are extremely boring and all alike.

IMO. the prowrestling itself is idiotic, but that's beyond the scope of this thread.

[sk8bloke22]

zakkwylde, that is the funniest avatar.

can ppl ask for like Mame roms, or something legal. i hav no idea why someone would do that as they r so easy to get, or like games for commodore64......i mean emutalk isnt gonna get sued.

skatebloke: Well, I think it's okay to ask for roms for systems that aren't manufactured nor sold anymore, such as the NES, Saturn and Atari. But don't count on it...

Say, since the magic word is "roms", does that mean I can say "rom" and get away with it? :p

[pj64er]

Fool, ur thinking morally .
legally, u r only entitled a rom of a game that u own as a back-up.

and i think i read somewhere that nintendo says something like its not legal to own a rom until a game has been out for 75 years. Yes, i said years. that means unless that rom was created before WWII u cant hav it.

[Spyder]

i own 15 games, i cant ask where to find the roms for those games??

[Raging Fuel]

No, because there is no way we can tell whether you are telling the truth or not.

BTW, are you the spy I know from the ihug servers?

[gokuss4]

I guess your not then :D

And Triz, I wouldn't call it a shitty isp, in fact its the best dial-up isp in sydney, imo (and I've had a lot of isps').

Finally someone stands up to the rom requests , the posting of rom links etc. Keep it up Flow I'll support you on this. :)

[newspawn]

hi

I am new in the world of the emulation

I am perplexed when i read that whoever will ask rom it will come banned
and who asks explanations for roms that don't work with the emulator?
who can show that they possess the rom and also the original game?

I would like to understand the difference to avoid to be banned

thanks

[mightyrocket]

It seems that it's gravedigging-week last week. The answer is: Roms are illegal and this is no warez-site.

Wow, what an ancient thread :o

Closing before any random debate starts.
