        Thats kinda offending, since I'm lazy I won't write a full reply. Consider yourself lucky this time...

            lol that was actually a joke. Like you call out on lazy people and I reply with "you're lucky that I'm lazy" as in if I wasn't lazy I would kick your butt.

            I agree with you, some people do ask very stupid questions on this board. And I'm not talking about the uber technical related stuff but the most basic stuff which has been posted over and over here in the forum and on the Wiki page. I noticed it a lot lately, maybe the popularity of RetroPie is increasing???

            Finding out about the MAME romset takes like a couple minutes on Google. If you search for "retropie mame" the second result will explain everything. The clrmamepro video tutorial is as easy as it can get.

                @PetroRie It's a pile of shit. Why do people make MAME sound like you need to be a 15th level Wizard with an Honors degree in Computes Hacking to figure it out? It's blooming easy, if only people weren't such d*cks about it...

                    That's a valid point, if such a post is made

                    It's here:

                      I saw this post after writing my reply, but i find it confusing and too long. Also, i'm not sure the title is clear enough (i would have titled it "Guide : how to get a working rom for FBA/MAME" or something like that) or if it is in the right place.

                        @barbudreadmon Ok, I wrote one to the best of my ability. See here. Hopefully, the number of repeat questions will decrease.

                            @rbaker Nice job, i would replace "MAME" in title by "MAME/FBA" though (newbies don't necessarily know they work the same).

                              Not everyone is tech savvy. On the first hand it looks kinda confusing but there are so many video tutorials on how to rebuild the mame romsets.

                              For us it might be easy but thats not the case for everyone. If you;re a lawyer, could you perform a surgery on someone?

                                @PetroRie I'd give it a go. I'm actually complaining about how it is explained to people by the experts not those asking the questions or having issues.
