About 9 Months ago I was banned because a team member put ROMs in his personal folder. So I am just finding out why we were banned now, so I put in an appeal last week. I am a little anxious to see if I was denied or not, would you say they accept appeals more and un-ban members a lot?
I have found that Googles service with appeals is not very good. I would try an alternative like AdBrite if I were you. It might take a while to get a reply form Google.
aah! you remind me of good ol' times of ROMs and emulators. dont have much time for those these days. adsense reviews each appeal on a case by case basis. if your appeal have any merit, they will consider and you might get your account reinstated.
People were downloading the roms from a password protected folder. He had a whole little site going up.
