Since all the vendors did it, it was convinent. They could change to EMU now or one of the other suggestions. Once it catches on it won't be a big deal. |

Well, for those defending what the mamedev team is doing...I didn't even want to mess around with their rediculous demands...they obviously didn't have their legal team write that stuff... So I removed every instance of "mame" or "m.a.m.e." from my auctions. It was there in the context of...supports xbox, mame, playstation, etc...keep in mind that I sell "empty" game cabinet kits. Anyways, removed all instances of "mame" and replaced it with PC Emulators, and relisted my items. Those where just pulled and my ebay account suspended. I have sent an email to the address listed on the ebay vero form without a response. Considering that "MAME" was not used anywhere in my items and there were still pulled...considering they were relisted after this thread was started...is it really a hick-up or did they just get caught going to far? A hick-up would mean that there is a problem and it should have been corrected by now...since I have not received a response, I'm assuming that they know what they are doing. So for anyone to say this is "just" or "fair"...open your eyes! |

After all you (via the Mameroom name) have actually been using it in commerce. ;D |

Also apparently xgaming.com's ebay auctions are immune to the rules, because apparently they can still spam "Mame" all over their titles. |
