Release Group

A group of people who pirate software for public release.

Release groups are also known as Ripping crews, as they will often rip sound or video from the games. Cd protections are often removed as well.

Most, if not all groups are strictly against selling their work. And they release games for evaluation purposes only. So gamers dont have to blow $60 just to see if a game is good.
Such groups include MYTH, Razor 1911, CLASS, Fairlight, Hoodlum, Reloaded, SPiTFiRE, Vengeance, PHXiSO, Technic, ALiAS, Divine, and Drink or Die.

group of assholes

There is no universal term for a collection of assholes in one place, instead terminology tends to cross religious and social economic boundaries. In the North of England one might encounter a Pile of assholes at a soccer match, whereas in Detroit this same group would be a Pack. Some particularly unflattering examples exist, such as the Nasty Bag of assholes (South East Asia).

groupie

A person, either male or female, who enjoys one's talent enough to create the desire to form a relationship with them, whether it be a friendship, casual relationship, or romantic relationship. These girls often proved to be muses and inspirations for the musicians, due to the combination of loyal fan and friend.

The term gained a negative connotation when those who were jealous of and/or didn't agree with the groupie lifestyle started using the word with a negative connotation. This turn was also attributed to many of the value-less groupies who began using musicians to gain fame or money after giving small sexual favors to roadies and lowly crew members.
