Dude...what the fuck?
I've been with DU since early 2010 on & off again and this is some sad news. Poor MasterShoes bro. I was originally going to reply to this image with "bs" but Ross... that's my boy Shadow! This is absolutely wild and what a year 2020!

Did you get this from discord?
@blawar posted a copy of it on ReiSwitched. It's been circling around. The lawfirm, the attorney and everything matches. It's legit as far as I can tell.

what is the site url? pm

Do not ask for Warez URLs! It's super easy to find. It's some STORAGE site.

... Not to mention it was just a way for people to post their legal game backups and have them verified by the public or whatever . Nintendo is really shooting them selves in the for by taking down supposed rom sites.
First sentence is one of the poorest excuse I have ever read to justify the existence of a rom site. I mean, common, if you're savvy enough to create a game backup, surely you can test it yourself without any help?

Second sentence needs elaboration. How can Nintendo shoot themselves in the foot by shutting down a rom site serving Nintendo roms? Seems completely illogical.

Since people don't seem to be able to read the rules. Let me get them for you.


"Warez" - ROMs, WADs, ISOs & CIAs

"Warez" is an internet term used to describe copyrighted software, game, film, music and data piracy.
  • We DO NOT HOST or PROVIDE ROMs/WADs/ISOs/CIAs; or link to websites that do contain ROMs/WADs/ISOs/CIAs.
  • We do not allow or condone sharing of title keys or any other form of copyrighted material or content.
  • Members may NOT ASK and MAY NOT PROVIDE INFORMATION or LINKS for and to places that provide ROM, WAD, ISO and CIA files in absolutely any way on our forum including PM (private message).
  • We do not condone piracy in any way.
  • Please go elsewhere if you only wish to download or share illegal files. The GBAtemp Forums are for discussion ONLY.
These rules also apply to other "warez" too, not just ROM, WAD, ISO & CIA files; this includes (but is NOT limited to) - licensed and copyrighted software, code, movies, music, video games, magazines, comics, e-books, television shows, illegal torrents, etc. These rules also account for "keygens" and "cracks" including how to obtain, apply or install them.


Those are the most frequently broken rules, and are the most important. Failure to comply with these rules may result in an instant ban on your forum account. Ignorance of the rules is no excuse!

it only took me about three minutes to find a new source for roms. I just downloaded pokemon home as I'm trying to get everything that I've actually bought. though, that's free, but you know what I mean. :D

well tor links are the future ;)

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Tor browser and onion links ;) time to move the pirate scene behind the scenes
It's always been behind the scenes :P Just people think that mega, gdrive etc. are safe havens to use.

Host the site on TOR, get the links to your normal browser. TOR however isn't very safe either.
OK, I hadn't thought of that. It makes sense. I wouldn't trust TOR too much either, but I guess if it becomes the only option, it could somewhat work out.

    Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy: I could claw back 14tb by only doing 2 parity disks but I feel like with 13 disks in the RAID...
