Ripping Questions

Also roms are legal as a form of backup. If you have the original cartridge you can keep the rom, otherwise you have to delete it in 24h. In most places, that is, some you can't have the rom at all.

This isn't true. A backup is legal ONLY if it's a backup of the very copy you physically own. Even if you have the game, downloadng a backup of a copy that isn't yours is still illegal. The 24 hours part is also untrue. That just something some early rom site put to try to justify it, and everyone believed/copied it.

Though nobody cares, so go download all the roms you want.

And you can't link to rom sites here either, if you want to do so your post will end up edited and I think you might get warned.

Go reread the rules a bit more carefully. It's a common misconception here that linking to rom sites isn't allowed; in fact, it's quite the opposite. Dazz has explicitly stated that he doesn't care whether you link to rom sites at all here. It's definitely allowed, though trying to host roms here is not.

Oh, and we are "spriters" resource, not "roms" resource

True, but we're still hosting content that we don't own/didn't create. The same rules still somewhat apply, though like I said before, nobody really cares. If they did, I'm sure tSR (and many other places hosting sprites) would be recieving many Cease and Desist letters and/or being forced to shut down.
