Now, brad gets banned for discussing roms, but Nemesis doesn't?

MalakSylv 07-26-2002 05:21 AM

unban brad or feel my wrath

DeathChill 07-26-2002 05:22 AM

TORAN!YOU FORGET, THE STAFF GET A HIGH OFF BANNING SOMEONE~#(&@$(*

DeathChill 07-26-2002 05:23 AM

I don't understand why the topic couldn't have been deleted and Brad warned. Plus we can talk about MP3's which is JUST as illegal as roms. ***** staff.

Torankusu 07-26-2002 05:24 AM

All I remember is Nemesis was talking about an SoM rom/emulator thing. I showed Alkaren, and Alkaren didn't want to ban him.

MalakSylv 07-26-2002 05:24 AM

what's the big deal about talking about emulators anyway? so long as you don't obviously attack a ****ing emulator/ROM to a post, why the hell would it matter?

Brad2 07-26-2002 05:26 AM

I thought about it before I made the thread and I looked at the top and saw the stupid thing about MMORPGS which I don't even know what are. I figured that wasn't a ROM so I posted anyways. =/
this = stupido

Torankusu 07-26-2002 05:26 AM

It marks as competition with Graal. Such as R4gnar0k.

Sir_Gareth 07-26-2002 05:27 AM

Acculy. That was like me I said "F@g" once and Im banned but some of the moderators friends say it but never banned.

TrueHeaT 07-26-2002 05:28 AM

can someone show me the exact thread(s) brad was banned for so i can launch a proper investigation? (proper investigation = look at it for a few minutes and decide whether his banning was rightful)

MalakSylv 07-26-2002 05:29 AM

we're not allowed to talk about ******ok or ROMs. what about consoles? i'd say that's a pretty bloody HUGE competition for Graal. hey everyone, let's all remind the staff of graal about how much better than graphics on EVERY console is compared to graal, and how nothing LAGS, and how the spelling is correct, etc.

I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. now, i'll probably be banned for defending brad's right to talk about something that is hardly going to suddenly take everyone away from graal forever.

Just do a search on the word and it's all over the place. So the person who banned you probably just didn't like you

NGRT, page 2. Thread name = emul.

He asked for them, whereas nemesis stated he was playing one. (I can't find that, but Alkaren SHOULD remember it.)'

TrueHeaT 07-26-2002 05:31 AM

I just read the thread..

What the **** were you thinking, Alkaren?

ADkjaskas
what the **** is wrong with you?
Instead of closing or deleting the thread and PMing brad not to post rom stuff you BAN him immediately? Are you goddamn crazy?

What do you think will come from GraalOnline? I think its stupid to ban him for talking about roms. But its ok to talk about X-Box and GameCube? Holy ****! The staff are trying to keep what little player base they have right now. Banning people for talking about other competitors(sp?) is pretty stupid.

DeathChill 07-26-2002 05:35 AM

I don't quite understand, I can post a topic about MP3's, but not roms?

Torankusu 07-26-2002 05:39 AM

and, they allow us to discuss ripping of MP3s/cds in RC chats. ;D

Wow, MP3's are more illegal then roms, watch the news and see how many MP3 sites and transfer programs are being sued. Stupid *****ic graal staff.

ZanderX 07-26-2002 05:43 AM

Moderators (Nemesis) can't be banned by Alkaren; it has to be done by one of the admins (Stefan, unix, galen).

Echos 07-26-2002 05:46 AM

I think the mods are fools! What if we discuss legal ROMS do we get banned then?

Seriously, Brad shouldn't have been banned... I eman a ROM is not giving graal any competition.... is it?also if your gonna ban someone for talking about an MP3 youd have to ban Graal2k2 cause it uses MP3s :)

Now, if Alkaren really sent a ban-note to galen about banning Nemesis, it would of probably been done by now.

It's distribution of copyrighted material via MP3 that's illegal. The format itself is not illegal.

BLOOD_kane 07-26-2002 05:49 AM

ok what i dont get is why we cant discuss MMORPG's that well graal cant compete with in the first place meaning way outta graal's leauge...ie EVERQUEST or STAR WARS GALAXIES, i played both EQ and Graal i dont think EQ would steal graal players....but on the other hand (im using this as an example im NOT PROMOTING IT) if i were to mention and promote Zelda 2002 then YES that would be competition for graal.

I know, I know, I was just stating the fact that Alkaren wouldn't have been able to do it himself.

TrueHeaT 07-26-2002 05:54 AM

Uhh.. I don't think roms are not allowed because they're competition, it's because they're ILLEGAL. Anyway, Brad should not have been banned though. Just warned and thread closed.

Aknts 07-26-2002 05:55 AM

Stuff like this is why I have never liked Alkaren..

BLOOD_kane 07-26-2002 06:01 AM

Yes, but home made roms aren't illegal then right? So I can talk about home made roms :cool:

-SLaG- 07-26-2002 06:10 AM

Let me just add, Roms are only illegal if you dont own the game

What's your point? I'll bet you 200 bucks none of the people who have ever asked for roms on the forums actually own the games they ask for.
