Group id #148 : Fantastic 4 Cracking Group

Wouldn't it be more fitting to have F4CG as main name, and the long form as AKA, nobody back in the days used the term 'Fantastic 4 Cracking Group', neither their members nor someone else in mags or greetings. Looks weird.

Looking at SHAPE, they used their short form too.

So far of what I have seen coming from the PC crack scene is pretty darn lame. Warez requiring passwords to unzip (fairly lame). Warez being sold (extremely lame) and copycat/ripper groups (just too lame *puke*). Particular emphasis on warez being sold. Cracking games and distributing them free is charge is expected and normal. Selling cracked warez are the actions of pathetic vultures.

Fill me in on something here, if Ricky founded this group in 1983, why is their first release at CSDb from 1986? That year it was 2 out of 687.

Second, what was up with the name, the fantastic 4? Looking at their "member" list they practically hired everyone at some point. :P

because a lot of releases are still missing and/or classified wrong/not at all ? none of my releases from 1986 is here either, and i doubt it ever will be, its simply lost - like a lot of stuff from that era.

I know that was going to be the answer, but it is still too bad that evidence is lost then. How about the 4, did 4 start the group in the beginning?

Mr.Mouse - originally 4 members and then expanding.

Same can be said for Shining 8 - originally 8 members, would like to know which 8 actually as Devil666, Fletch, Paco, Romrunner, Scum and Trashcan are only 6 that I know.
http://www.mirrorfox.com/videos/5811/shining-8---the-story.html may give more information but I need someone to translate for me :D

I could do it, but would have to strain a bit as the sound of the video is bad. I'm sure there a plenty of native Germans here who could help you out there though ;)

So how can it be lost if it was released in the scene? That makes no sense. It should be somewhere. Just like all the other stuff. With so many releases already on CSDb from all eras, I'd think if there were releases from an earlier period, they would be known to others. The other option is there was no release, or no release worth uploading. And yet another option is that there was no scene before the boom (1986). And if there was no scene, you cannot claim to have been part of something that wasn't there.
