yeah i've seen that before. it's not like i can't get past it with some captcha (and 'optional message to the webmaster'), i just found it absurd that he'd stop me from even visiting his website just because of where i live.

Not absurd at all, it is a very common way to try to combat spam bots.

Seems interesting enough... but on the other hand i don't want to join and become hooked then all of a sudden Nintendo shut it down due to copyright laws.

I recall seeing this a few months ago, probably the best pokemon mmo out there.

I believe this project is a few months old 

As long as it is non-profit, Nintendo wont be arsed taking legal action. So unless they try to monetize the product I see no need to worry.

It's entirely non-profit, and there are legal stipulations on the website that actually seem to make it entirely legal - as long as you take responsibility for having your own *legal* copy of a ROM file.

Are you certain of this? I'm almost sure I have heard of some other Pokemon project that was shut down by Nintendo before, regardless of being non-profit.

Pretty certain of it.

I remember in the FAQ of another pokemon mmo, it was even stated they got permission from Nintendo.

Of course, they may have changed their stance since then. It should also be noted that Nintendo only owns a third of the IP (technically half, since they own a third of one of those companies). The other 2 thirds belong to The Pokemon Company and Game Freak.

They haven't been taken down since they don't distribute any copyrighted material. It requires that you already have a ROM of the Firered/Leafgreen, and it just modifies the assets to connect to their servers.

That is not how these things work. He is most likely using a database of known ip ranges that have been reported as spam bots. If you read the description it says your ip has been flagged based on those criteria, its not just mentioning your country alone.

Just D/L the FireRed version and I have to say this is pretty dang cool! But I was wondering, when you D/L the Game ,you have the options to use Heart Gold or Soul Silver Roms.. does this mean you can have those in MMO style? or will it still be FireRed style graphics? kinda a dumb question lol
