Hey look, it's the right thing to do when you look at it. I'm trying to respect the views presented by some of the BYOAC crew. I'd like to see them post now and back me up on how I'm dealing with this, or should I just make it public again? Comon it's easy to tear an idea down, how about supporting me in my decision to limit it's distribution? --- Quote ---You know I am not fond of the program but if you are going to be working on it you might as well release it. What says that the link they send you isn't a random one pulled off the project announcements forum? --- End quote --- Your not fond of it, but think I should release it? I don't get that statement, kinda like a contradiction. Ok, people might give me a bogus link, so what, I can't possibly traffic cop every request I get properly right? At least I'm doing something to ease the mind of people who bag the program. Look, I'm only trying to make everyone happy here.. the Mame developers, the BYOAC people against it, and all that. This is my attempt at making CoinDrop available without pissing everyone off. It's the best I can do sorry.. |

I think you should leave it as it is, since CoinDrop is only morally useful if used in a home environment. I think you're doing an excellent job of keeping CoinDrop legit, so many other people would have just posted it on an anonymous website. It shouldn't be a big deal for anyone here to have to post a link to a project, it's not really a lot to ask from any of us. |

Honestly bro, I would just post it. If people on this board get bent out of shape they are being silly in my opinion. A bit hipocritical at least. They don't need to download it if they don't want it. You aren't doing anything remotely against the forum rules. So I say post it. This is a religious debate and you can't make head way with the issue either way, so just do what you feel is best for you and your contribution to this great community. Abruptly switching gears.... What does your software do in this case: - I load up a bunch of credits while in the game. I only use one or two of them and then exit back to the front end. I select another game and play that. Will the unused credits (entered in another game - not via the FE), be available in the new game? |

Why would someone who thinks in such a way wish to support you limiting its distribution? That's like saying "I know you don't want me to sell ANY crack, but if I just sell it on this one corner instead of all over the city like I wanted to, then you should support that" And what SirP is saying is that CLEARLY, you aren't going to stop working on it, so go all out with it. Don't "pretend" you're being some "traffic cop", since you yourself acknowledge it's a futile effort. Let EVERYONE speed if you aren't going to stop EVERYONE. You're being pedantic by putting up "rules" you admit you can't enforce. |

Your missing the whole point of why I'm not making it freely available. Only if you can prove to me you are a homebrewer by providing a link to a project page will I send you a copy. Sorry, but the debate about this is over and it's my final decision. --- End quote --- Fair enough. I will conply with your request. MIKE |
