Trolls often stick together, so its no wonder who would side with Jeffo after the deed is done...

Exactly my point.  Theres no need for this kind of Trolling attitude.  Its simply here to incite a fight.   Its not helpful, nor kind, nor the kind of environment that should be on this site.

 Its called a "Slap in the face" post.   And if you think that getting slapped in the face is harmless... then lets see what happens to you after youve been slapped several times over.

 Its plain and simple 'bullying'.

 If he wanted the discussion to be civil, he should have chosen his words more respectfully.  He didnt.  He obviously wants to start a fight.

X2, to be fair, someone is going to point out that my original post to ark_ader was not kind either, and they're right.  As I said, it was a visceral response to someone trying to diminish a guy's brand new contribution to the hobby without even seeing a review or understanding what set it apart.  Anyway, I shouldn't have said it and I don't want to clutter up Armi's announcement any further please, EVEGames was wrong, now let's hear some reviews of this new product.

armi0024:
Ok... please?

Look we all have opinions and some share theirs more than others.  I suggest we open a AWF thread, the Arcade Wrestling Federation thread, and move discussions there?  In fairness I have had to sit in the corner a few times because I shared my opinion on other threads, but please, everyone here commenting obviously cares deeply about arcades, this business and what new products mean.  Otherwise you are just bored or wouldn't be commenting.

There has been some valuable, albeit less than positive comments that have lead to some better and informative discussion.  So if possible, please pull the punches and let's keep the thread clean, otherwise every thread I post in will end up in post hell!

EVEGames, this may very well be a troll against me... and I dont care, but I will respond appropriately to set the record straight.

 I have posted my opinions about things I have not touched.  But this being with knowledge of the product, and a deep understanding of the nature of other related products.

 For example, a Leaf switch that has a hard 'bottom out point', will feel different than one that does not.  Its simple physics & comparison of the nearly identical physical counterparts.  You dont have to have the actual 'thing' to know its behavior.

 However, in Arks case, he spouts off without any understanding of the product or its differences... which isnt really right, and as you said, his response was very bitter, and seemed 'personal'.

 As for the market, I wouldnt know.  I dont sell the things.  Nor do I know the sheer number of mame type projects out there.  I do know that competition is good though.  But then again, sometimes cooperation can be better...  For example, if all the vendors pooled resources to get new Vector monitor made (or maybe a laser projector version?), remakes of complex controls such as Race Drivins FFB wheel + the sitdown shifter, a run of specialty plastics parts, etc.

 On a personal note, while I do not know technically if the thing gives the results that it claims... I do feel its imperative to have the utmost fastest responses possible.  A delay may be fine on certain games, but the more intense games really push you to the limits... and a split second delay can ruin everything.

 It may be a little more in cost, but for me, better control = better experience = worth every cent.
CheffoJeffo:
I was harsh. I do apologize for that and will respect Bryan's polite request that I not carry arguments on any further in this thread.

EVEGames -- standing up to me won't get you ostracized -- probably just the opposite, particularly with the tone that I went with.
