The product is the person who built it. A person is what a person does in almost any sense that matters. You can't make fun of my clothes without making fun of me because I was the one who picked out the clothes. You can't make fun of my novel without making fun of me because I was the one who wrote it. And you can't make fun of my MAME cab without making fun of me because I was the one who built it. Edit: keep in mind, I'm not saying everyone ought ta be saints. A little ribbing can be fun and if you're gonna put yourself out there you should have thick enough skin to take it. But what I'm seeing in this thread strikes me as edging more toward cruelty than lighthearted fun at someone else's expense. And, of course, if the guy is an ---uvula--- in general, let him have it. If that's David Foley's cab just, ya know, tear it to pieces. But there's plenty of good things to say about that thing. The builder is, or at least was, super proud of it. And there is a lot about it to be proud of. I just think this thread is probably unnecessary and reflects poorly on our community. |

I don't think a line was crossed but I do agree, this type of stuff can go too far in some cases. Hopefully if the OP comes across this they'll take it in the good-natured spirit intended as evidenced by the above posts. |

--- Quote from: Jack Burton on February 19, 2012, 02:17:25 am ---Many fighting gamers would prefer to play on a big, undecorated box with no marquee, coin door, or other features of a standard cab. All they want is the stability of a fixed control panel. The other stuff isn't nearly as important. --- End quote --- True dat. But that's why I say that whole top half should go and then just make it a pedestal cabinet. That's a fine looking TV in what appears to be a nicely decorated man-cave. Hanging it on a wood structure is gratuitous if it serves no further decorative purpose, dare I say, actually cheapens it a bit (read: a lot). |

Replace the joys and add a spinner and Coinops 3, but looking at the original picture, the cabinet looks totally fine to me. You guys are too harsh. ::) |

I think the maker has probably got better woodworking skills than most of us here. It's just a shame he/she didn't think things through a bit more and do a little research. |
