Hehe. I was doing some googling and I found a site with the same url as theroms but, with a different suffix (it's emulation oriented too). I don't wanna advertise the site (I'm sure you guys can push all the right buttons and click google in that special spot and find it yourself). It just seems odd that the person running the site would throw originality out the window and blatantly (but legally) rip off Chris's baby.

On the good side themasster's project is now a chain, just with different managers (only thing is...gasp...the homepage is updated).

I was hoping to go there and see our alter-egos posting.

There's always two of somebody on this planet, a good one, and a bad one. I want to find the good one so I can kill him and throw off the balance of good and evil in the universe, thus unmaking all existence. or something equally stupid.

There are 2 possibilities here.

1. He's aware of theroms.com and want's to capitlize on the theroms' name as a well known emulation site.

2. It's a coincidence. He is totally oblivious to theroms.com, had the same idea as Chris and named his site with the same URL.


Well maybe its 3...

3. He's a fucking prick that needs us to post in his forums till they die and download all his SNES roms (even if we got em' already troops) till the server is melting :angry: .

Don't hide. We just gotta stand strong as a community and boycott the site till he renames the site...or buys our services as posting members.

is that PHP Nuke he's using? It's a nice clean layout. I like.

If Chris isn't concerned then we shouldn't be.





On the other hand (we could take the fight to him). If we can finance the trip, I think Chris could knock this prick out and stop the infringement? If not a html contest would ensue... :P

Isn't there a saying about imitation and flatery and something or other I can't remember it right now. Either way I don't really care what this ass fuck does... it just makes me mad that he comes here and starts advertising here.

I would post on his forums and advertise my site there but then I realized that no one goes there so it would just be a waste of time.

Could the cause be...Pac-transvestite, mario brothels, Final scratch-fight and the emulator PEsNES?
