      @Rascas everyone can report til they are blue in the face. Facebook won't do anything unless we have lawyers threaten to sue and even then... Facebook is a cancer.

        I would report, if I would still be on Facebook. Such idiots.

          Haha - first order of business is:

          We allow discussion of roms and pre-made images.

            @mitu Haha ;)
            May I ask if there is solid support for everything?

              I don't have a FB account, so I can't see any conversations there. But I wouldn't be surprised if they'd have some knowledgeable folks there - just to make sure you get the right ROMs and the best 'all filler, no thriller' images.

                I do have an account and can't see the conversations either, you have to join the group to see xD
                I did my part and reported them as spam/illegal anyway.

                  Ähh... Mi-tu no FB account. So senseless to get solid info from this channel ;)
                  Nevertheless it is still just waste of time.

                  @hhromic Nothing will change, maybe you can declare that eating mushrooms and jumping on heads is an act of terrorism. And collecting coins from hidden places is modern piracy

                        I like to hear that people that I already respect a whole lot for other things don't have a Facebook account. 👍

                          Nowadays I only have Facebook because of work. No Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and that kind of social media. Like it or not, Facebook is still the biggest social network by a long margin, and one of the easiest ways to reach people. Unfortunely, almost everybody has a facebook account.

                            This thing is really really bad for RetroPie, if there is shit going on, because people think its an official page from us/you. Do they link to this page?

                            @Clyde Thank you. I also like people who like people who don't have Facebook accounts. :D

                            @Rascas Last year I even removed WhatsApp from my "phone". This had a big impact and most people are looking at me as if I was trolling. And this fact is the most sad aspect of it.

                                @thelostsoul Doesn't look like they link to this page at all.

                                Pretty garbage group it seems even by facebook standards.

                                      Ha! That's it alright. It's funny, actually seeing a picture brings back memories of working up my nerve to call a few crushes back in my middle school days. Of course no girl can resist the undeniable allure of a guy with footwear for a phone, so I don't know what I was ever worried about.

                                          I did indeed. I remember the mechanism to hang it up when placed flat on a table was located near where your chin would be, so you had to be pretty careful to not accidentally brush it and end the call... That and the intense smell of feet.
