Someone tried to tell me this WASN'T an illegal emulation forum, I find it hard to believe, especially considering you have forums regarding Xbox and PS2 emulation, how could anyone possibly make this claim?

Yes it is, Xbox and PS2 are products available for sale on the market, trying to get it for free is most definatley illegal. Not to say there's a problem with that, I completely condone illegal activity, what I'm wondering is why you're trying to claim to be legal and legislating certain illegal activity on the forum. Be proud to be a pirate!
you are most definately undeniably the most misinformed moron i have ever had the unfortunate pleasure of listening to. Downloading Roms, Downloading Bios, Downloading PC games are illegal. Dumping your own bios, BUYING pc games, and dumping your own roms are all activities which are not illegal, and ways to emulate your games, i reccomend you do your homework (or at least read the damn rules) before taking on an entire community that's been using emualtion for many years.

EDIT: Well a few people beat me to it, oh well :p

well obviously if you OWN the game, but who downloads an emulator to play a game they already own? Emulation applies to mostly unlawful interest, promotion of it IS illegal.
My PSX is broken, i now use all my old PSX cd's on my computer. My old SNES games i have in a closet somewhere, i can play them online with an emulator (along with PSX). I'm sorry, but this is an arguement you can't win. And Promotion of a legal activity isn't illegal :p. and Emulation IS legal.
