I just got some troubling news - it's not Foley pulling the auctions, but MAMEdev themselves!
(See "MAMEdev is Pulling Auctions" in the Main Forum for more details - it doesn't belong in this thread: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,37734.0.html )
Apparently they are the ones cancelling auctions, and have sent out letters to several vendors with the new "rules"
David Foley's getting his wish, and he's got MAMEdev working as his enforcers...

Edit: moved details to new thread

They're just trying to cover their own asses, there's nothing wrong with that. There's also a thread about this on the MAME board. Why SHOULD you list an auction as "Keyboard encoder for MAME"? Keyboard encoders have hundreds of uses - It seems like "KB16 keyboard encoder - 16 inputs" should work just as well. Anyone looking for encoder to use with MAME know what they are looking for. Sticking MAME in the title wouldn't really help anyway. I can understand being upset at the auctions being pulled, but now that we know what they want, I don't see any problems with it.

I have had the search "MAME" in my ebay favorite searches for sometime. It's is the fastest way to find new parts.
