It would be nice to be able to read through people's private homemade builds of pinball machines to see the hardware they used, how they connect everything, etc....

I know there is already a "Pinball" forum but this is full out true pinball machine questions and not specific homemade pinball table builds.

Not a bad idea. Why not just expand the Pinball forum to "Pinball/Virtual Pinball"?

Should topic threads for both kinds be mixed together or separated into two child forums for real/mechanical/dedicated machines and virtual/simulation/multigame machines?

We don't get that many pinball posts anyway. If you didn't want to mix them, child forums are a good idea.

If you want to see guys going nuts building virtual pinball machines, look no further than the Hyperspin forums - Hyperpin Cabinet sub-forum.

He deleted almost all of his 1000's of posts and dropped off the forum.

Either nobody here knows why or they aren't willing to tell.   :dunno

I know he was an ---uvula---, but he was OUR ---uvula---. He brought some balance that I think is needed sometimes.
