SephI really don't like this topic, I feel this has been discussed so many times before, but whatever.
Sorry about that then, but I wasn't around when the other threads were being in hot discussion. Although I do know that one other thread was left open for discussion though.
And about your stand point that RomUlation does not stand for piracy per se, that's another reason why this place is unique unlike its other contemporaries which are a hundred percent pro piracy.

SephI really don't like this topic, I feel this has been discussed so many times before, but whatever.No. It's not criminal. Copyright infraction is a civil case, not a criminal one. A civil case does not add to your record but it can still result in fines and jail time. But that's a non-issue, we complied with the removal requests, we always have and we always will. RomUlation to us is not a source for pirating things to avoid paying, it's a source for pirating things to figure out what's worth paying for and what isn't. We run it with that in mind and we respond to removal requests with that in mind.
Yes. It is no a new discussion but this is the best of all the discussions relating to the issue.

Part of me deciding to join was to support the site throught this rough patch, the hate commenters are real ignorant selfish retards who seem to completely forget that everything doesn't exist to serve them and only them.
The admins and staff at romulation are admirable in the way they have dealt with the current situation in my oppinion.Perhaps one good thing to come out of this is that it will weed away some of the ungratefull parasites on this site (I feel like Andrew Ryan after that last sentence)...

Cahos Rahne VelozaBut I do want to say that one thing I love about how RomUlation hosts retro ROMs is the way they bulk bundle retro ROMs like the ones for the NES, SNES, N64 etcetera. By this what I mean is, unlike RomUlation's rivals who for example hosts the Super Mario Bros. ROM & various ROM Hacks of it &/or its various redumps separately, RomUlation offers you one archived file with every version along with the one "true" good dump. For others this was a pain as they do not know which version they should get. But for some of us who do know what to look for, downloading one bundled file is better than individually downloading each one looking for that one version that you'd like.
I know of another site that does this too, but not an affiliate. Nevertheless it is a cool feature. Both Romu and the other site actually Split up and INDIVIDUALLY ZIP all the same roms in one set from a GOODSET. you have NO idea how many titles it takes to scroll through to find all of one game in a goodset, specially if its like SMB and has lotsa hacks.
Romu, I salute you.
