Can you make a single Canadian Arcade thread we can ignore instead of starting endless threads trying to make Canadian Arcade a thing?

Have some ---smurfing--- tact.

I think we should revisit this place next year and see how the game selection has evened out. They've got a good demographic with the universities and other post secondary crowds nearby. Develop that loft area up above and bring in some more classics and this could be a great gaming destination.

Best of luck to Barcadia!

Chance: I think you should create multiple threads for each video so we can discuss each topic individually. 

Seriously, Chance: Why do you keep feeding the trolls? ---fudgesicle---'em!

I disagree with the implication that I am trolling him. "Its a pixel thing" has all his videos in a single thread, Chance should do the same. He's littering the forums trying to promote his channel, then Josh comes by and bumps the thread here and at KLOV with the exact same text. I didnt make a mention as to quality or content of the video, I just brought up the senseless need to try and jam it down our throats. Personally, I don't need an hour+ long video showing me how to put a PCB in a Fedex box. I sincerely doubt you watched the entire thing John.

What's the big deal about trying to promote their channel, a post in the main thread is 'jamming it down our throats'? So what if they post at klov and here, not everyone is on both sites. Your reactions seem more out of line than the posts, obviously some personal axe to grind, why the hate?

I don't typically watch videos online but have no problem with Chance posting these here. Anything to expand the hobby is fine with me.

Meh. If people want to watch arcade videos on youtube they can search youtube or subscribe to their favorite channels. These videos always feel like spam to me when they're posted on forums (thanks John's arcade for this trend). I suggested a separate forum for posting hobby videos here in the feedback section, but Saint ignores my requests...

Why watch a video for a half hour or more? Go play your games.

LMK if you want to meet up for an awkward meal when you're in Texas.

 I dont mind him posting them here, if he'd just start a SINGLE thread and bump it when he posts a new video.

Multiple threads makes sense to me since (as John said) folks might want to comment on a particular video and keeping the comments together makes for an easier read.

I'm not sure why multiple threads is that big a deal.  However I know you are not alone in this thinking as the debate over the RIP threads showed.  To me there just isn't enough traffic on this site that makes having a few "extra" threads all that hard to manage/navigate.

...Might do one for Austin/Houston if I have time when i'm down in October. ...

Dallas Chance, Dallas!

[pbj]

I just might have to take you up on that.

GF and I are in town for the Grand Prix, (she tells everyone it's for the T. Swift concert at the track...)  We're in and out of the State pretty quick, but i'll for sure let you know if we have any free time.

Could have seen Taylor Swift at the rodeo for $10 a few years ago.  I think that was the year  Toby Keith got on stage totally smashed 40 minutes late and slurred his way through half a dozen songs.  I stand by my choice.

Anyway, it's a two hour hop from there to the pinball museum in Hockley down 290.  Take a short detour through La Grange and stop wondering why it took ZZ Top 40 years to actually perform there.

---fudgesicle--- Dallas.

I'm still waiting for this tire kicker to come to ZapCon.

3 bits of feedback, take it or leave it if you wish.

1. Stop posting the track list, it comes off as being very pretentious. Include them in the credits of your video, but all it does is really pad the post.

2. Figure out your intended audience and purpose. An hour and 11 minutes video with a whole bunch of stuff seems very rambling. You have a specific goal with these videos? Is this just a dream of yours, to have your own TV variety show? I've watched a few of DeLuSioNaL's videos, because at least he's got one specific thing he's trying to do. Some of the better videos on KLOV specifically deal with an aspect of restoration. If you're trying to bring arcade building to newbies, you should really market it that way. I peeked at your pro tips, and they're stuff I've known since 2010. Nothing wrong with that, but clearly I'm not your intended audience.

3. In the last few months, the only time we hear from you is when you post those videos, nothing more. If we are your friends and this is your community, you really should just hang out. Otherwise, like the others have pointed out, it feels like spam.

You and I have talked via p.m. in the last few months, and I know we are good. I hope you see this is constructive, but that's the intent behind this post. Take it or leave it.

There was a time you (like me) actually left this forum. Can you please do that again? For good this time?

Dude, why don't you let Chance take care of himself? He doesn't need you to be his Internet Bodyguard.

I'm just saying: This forum would be so much better without that ---uvula---. I think X2 was right!

[yotsuya]

This forum is just fine. Malenko made a suggestion  (one I agree with, BTW). Chance isn't that thin skinned - why are you?

[johnrt]

The forum is not fine! Where the hell have you been? For starters: get rid of Malenko and we'll be on our way.

[yotsuya]

I've been here everyday for the past 6 years. If there are any problems here, it's not because of Malenko. Why do you hate BYOAC?

Because of guys like Malenko. The day he quit this forum I'll be back. X2 is SO on the spot regarding that ---uvula---! I don't hate BYOAC, i love BYOAC. I just hate malenko and his crap! He can't say anything positive about anyone or anything.

[yotsuya]

Btw, Mal is an opinionated guy. Sometimes he can be a dick. But A) he'd be the first to tell you that and B) he contributes many ideas and art assets to this community. I've never seen him ragequit and take his contributions and go home. He takes his lumps.

He MAKES people ragequit!

[yotsuya]

I'm sure Thomas_surles would disagree with you. So would the guys who Mal has helped with art and designs.

You just see what you want to see, especially when it comes to Chance. Kinda mancrushy.

I don't care. I just hopes he leaves this forum again. And stays out this time! If you read X2's posts he is actually on the spot regarding that ---smurfing--- ---uvula---!

[yotsuya]

So if he stays, does that mean you're leaving?

[Nephasth]

You drinking, John? Cool your ---smurfing--- tits. You don't HAVE to read Malenko's posts. If ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- on the internet pisses you off, it's time to sit back for a little self reflection.

[johnrt]

I will not be contributing with anything at least. I will state my opinion as long as I don't get kicked the hell out of here. And as long as I bother.

How can I not? Every damn post Malenko is doing is just negative crap! ---fudgesicle--- him!

[Nephasth]

It's a choice. You're choosing to let it bother you. Yin and yang. There is no positive without the negative.

[thomas_surles]

I don't see were he said anything out of line here, or anyone else for that matter. This is just getting ridiculous.

[yotsuya]

It's just John. He gets weirdly protective of Chance for some reason.

[Malenko]

Sorry you feel that way. If you click my name and view my last posts I don't think your statement of everything I post is negative holds much weight. Even in this thread where you've chosen to blow up at me, I've been pretty cordial, well except maybe when I said "use some ---smurfing--- tact" or something of that ilk, but I've never claimed to be perfect.

 I  don't see any personal attacks on chance or any unfair criticism of his video, I haven't gone into his projects threads suggesting he ignite his cab either, so there is that.

I'm off to bed, long day ahead of me tomorrow, I hope this thread doesn't get pruned I know I wont be reporting it!

[pbj]

God this forum has gotten soft.  Perhaps it's time to dust off pinballjim and get the drunk clown avatar going again.
