Well I'm new at this forum, I'm just a guy who downloads games from your page. I'm from Argentina (for those interested in nationalities) so forget my mistakes
 . (Advice: I may stupid questiones below that may have easily answered by reading somewhere in the page or using my common sense, nevertheless please anser them :help: ) So what's the difference between Abandonia and Abandonia Reloaded? Why are Esa protected games still posted, if they can't be downloaded why don't erase them. Cause' I already know all about the Ultima's games and I just want to *dirty word* download them  (I must explain that I used to download small games since I had dial up :tai: , but when I finally had 250 kb the *dirty word* Esa appears saying I can`t download the frikin game, and I was waiting to do it!!!, *meep* :ranting: ) I think there is nothing more to say and if you need sth in spanish you can ask me. I think I read somewere that there was a Croatian around here, well my surname is Marinkovic (100% Croatian!!! and damm proud of it!!). ESA :not_ok:  |

Welcome!
Abandonia hosts abandonware games, and Reloaded is for freeware and remakes. ESA-protected games' reviews are still on the site because it would be a waste of effort to delete them, and they may also come in handy as some inofrmation. And yes, there are few Croatians around here (with me being one of them). As a matter of fact Kosta, the owner, is from Zagreb, Croatia. And you can check crew link on Croatian main page. Marinkovic, you say... I know few people with surnames like that. So you can speak Croatian? Oh, yes, and no ESA-busting posts. That issue has been discussed before.

This is abandonware, AR is freeware, and they're still up because it seemed a bit mean to delete all the work people put into reviews (writing, correcting, translating) and screenshots for the games. you're right, you could have found this elsewhere with a bit of effort. Please use fewer smileys and refrain from swearing, and the site owner Kosta is croation, amongst others.
Finally, welcome aboard. |

Dobrodošao
 It's always good to see a Croat in here , but I'm afraid we're allowed English only on this forum...Uživaj!  k:

Sorry about the swearing, its nice to see that you try to keep a nice atmosphere in the forum. About Esa I'm pro-pirate, its sth related to capitalism and living in a third world country I guess. Of course I'll keep to the rules around here. About the croatian stuff, I was born in Argentina and my greatgrandparents are from there. But my familiy (the Marinkovic's) are a very close family, in some way clanic (from clan?). So I'm 25 percent Croatian, 25% Welsh and 50% Spanish, talking about blood lines. Unfortunately my grandparents never thought my father or me the language, so I only speak spanish and english (and a little bit of japanese).
About vipnes (I've reading things somewhere) if I want to help with translating or sending games, who do I ask to send the game, of course if you want them. |

The reviews were not removed primarily because we hope for getting the permissions back to host these games again.

Yes, but even if we didn't get the permission back, it would be a horrible waste to get rid of those reviews. People spent a lot of time writing and translating them.
