OK I have to ask: What's the deal with Galbadia Hotel?

I'm a little concerned over the downtime of Galdabia hotel, as it's where I get the vast majority of my music. I've even donated.....ok only $5.00 but still.

So for the first time in like 2 years, I venture back onto this site, to see if anybody here had any reason as to what was going on.

However.....all I seem able to find, is that a lot of people here don't actually like GH at all, that it's run by someone called Sarah who people don't like either and nothing but complete dislike for the whole site. It's all done by 12 year olds apparantly.

Now I admit, I used to come to this GFA around 2001 to pick up game music, all the time. You guys had the albums laid out so easily, and it was far more professionally presented than GH. So in a way, I could say, you were much better to use than GH.

But I still don't understand why there's the need for so much hate. There's a few threads where people actually say they hope that GH stays down. That wouldn't suit me at all.

The only real issues I have with GH, is that a lot of OST's are listed as 'track 1, track 2 track 3' etc, which makes it hard to easily find the music you need. Also, you can only d/l 2 songs at a time, otherwise the links just give you .txt files. And some of the songs are named wrongly.

Uh, and also there isn't much new music to find up there. Also, a few games are ripped twice....some with the songs moved around, and etc. Little annoying. Plus......there isn't all the soundtracks that I'm looking for on it (that's why I still post on the Games that need to be ripped thread lol), but I can sort of understand that.

Most annoying thing is however, some the tracks aren't ripped properly, and they have speaking all over it, or they end in wrong places.....it seems a lot of them are actual 'game rips' and not OSTs, which is fine, if there is none, for say like Banjo Kazooie, etc.

However, despite these flaws, it's still a good place to obtain music from. I know, there may be bit torrent clients that host more music and stuff, but still. Nothing beats a good website with proper mp3 links.

So yeah, just my two cents, if you know why Gh has gone specifically now or wanna tell me that this Sarah person really owns a sweatshop in India or something, have at it Even better would be if you tell me to shut up and wait...GFA 5 is being launched next week.




Well.....I can dream, right?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You're right, most people here don't like Sarah. For good reason, too. And if you found that people here don't care for GH, WHY ARE YOU HERE ASKING FOR INFORMATION ABOUT IT?

Common sense, motherfucker, do you have any?



Of course it wouldn't suit you. How immature is that? "I don't want it down because then I can't get my music!"

Stop whining.



why are you still talking.



GFA5 won't be launched next week. Keep dreaming. If all is right in the world, GH is down for good and Sarah was taken away for all that pedophilia and stupidity we all know her for. She's probably conning you all for money, a la a certain Korean man we all know and love to hate.

Good riddance.

Uh.......lol ok. So basically you're saying to SHUT UP AND STOP WHINING. NOOB TLDR STFU GO ELSEWHERE.

First off, ok. Yeah it seems Gh is a pretty sore subject. But wtf, it's not like she killed kids in 'Nam or something? What did she do, steal GFA's staff? Take credit for something you personally worked on?

If you would have just replied and said "Yeah dude, I'm not really sure. ask someone else", than ok. But your response is full of such unbridled hate.....wow You need to slow down. I'm NOT ATTACKING GFA. OR YOU. YOU HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WRONG TO ME. understand?

And I don't think it's immature to say "wow, there was this place I used to go to get music, but now it's closed down, that sucks."

Ok, well let's see what I've learned: this 'Sarah', seems to be some pedo transvestite millionaire con.

Well, you didn't attack the site itself. Thinking about it, it was pretty shoddy design.

Still.....at least I got an answer, even if it was just flame. Now I'll shut up. Hopefully other people as clueless as me but didn't have the balls (or stupidity yes yes ok ultima) to ask can learn from my mistake.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
