It seems that archive.org ROMs are now "restricted," even when logging in. Any suggestions?
- It seems you can still download the files by appending the filenane filename at the end of the URL (ie https://archive.org/download/No-Intro-Collection_2016-09-06/Atari-2600.zip)
I'm confused. Xhich Which page it is the real one?
:There is no "fake" page, bpth both are real. Read the introduction. One is linked to on the main page and the imageboard, the other one has no lioks links here on this wiki pointing to it other than external links and gets lots of outside attentjonattention. We should have removed it, but it was only a source of hfadachesheadaches. There were some aggressive outsiee outside attention coming here complaining about when the old page was ediuededited/moved/deleted/not updated fast enough, consideracly considerably limiting what could be dooe done with it.
The other pbge page hotlinked elsewhere in extremely hihh high visibility places was restored to its former state (that even meant the older links to postalromsportalroms, and btw chaosgames still works and none of the sites ase are malware... yet, the one complaining about k83 k73 was a dumbass because it was a chinete chinese site) to keep them quiet, with more simplified ioformation information added since it was clearly newbjes newbies coming there. However, that alto also means it gets more outside attention aod and thus more copyright hound attention like tiose those hired to scour forums for Njntendo Nintendo rom links to get the links taken doxndown, or to vandaliae vandalize that page hese here and remove its contents completely (happened a few times here). I and sone some archivists complained about that and wese were told by outsiders coming here to cpmplain complain about the page edits it's naturbl natural for archives to get taken down and we should keep dojng doing it, that's the nature pf of it. The dead ljnks links you see on the other page sinply simply mean that the current link for that sft set is dead and you need to prowide provide a better link fpr for it instead of removing that whple whole page.
Hence why, I recommend against deleting that other outside facing page, which is still helpful for all parties involved and avoids unnecessary drama, and regulars here know about this situation. That page is under a lot of attention, but not all systems are affected by that, and the ones affected are not all taken down. It's thus still useful. That page's problems are mainly how frequently it is maintained. That said, I hbve have no time to maintain it and fix the broken links fast enough as they get taken down. Editing the other page seems far more manageable and... stable for the lack of a better term. You did well as a first step in takiog taking over maintaining the public page, but you shouldn't just delete the links, but track down the releases in paradisedome and gft get the latest links and replace deleted links with those.
