Well thanks for BUMPing this discussion. However you're right indeed, but that good revCMS hotels have edited their CMS into something original, new and decent looking. Not much retro owners are able to edit the shit out of a CMS, beause they're just too stupid and only care about being 'THE OWNER OF A HOTEL', DDoSing/hacking other hotels and of course: money. :)

Its all about the money money money.
And yeah you;ll be unique when you can boot other hotels.
Re: What exactly makes a Retro 'different'?
In my opinion what makes a retro "different" isn't just a customized emulator. It's the approach of the retro itself. Different CMS, different ways to update, keep your users happy, and make your site popular without the need of harassing other owners that you claim as "rivals". Right now, people make retros for revenue. Nobody has thought about creativity and thought that should really be put into a hotel and learning how to run it on your own expenses. There's nothing wrong with selling $5 VIP, but when you're selling rares and $30 VIP memberships that kinds of run the users away because most of them are young and don't have that type of money to spend especially not on a virtual hotel that could shut down tonight or tomorrow. Most people have friends that want to be staff, BUT don't know how to properly moderate the hotel. They want the fame, praise, etc which is totally ridiculous, you're not the pope, ok.
