People argue their opinions every day, that's what forums are for. I don't understand what's your complaint about. If you want to think serial data transfer is faster than parallel that's fine by me, it's just common knowledge that's not true. If you want to think 60-in-1 are illegal while in the same time being legally sold everywhere and bought by everyone, that's fine too. I only wanted to tell you there is a difference between "allegedly violating copyright" and the item actually being proclaimed "illegal", for which there first needs to be a court trial. To me the argument was semantic, you should use proper words unless you wish to confuse and scare people, especially if you yourself own one of these boards.
I told Haze and MAME developers about MAME being sold on Android market:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrioni.jarcade
See if they care or can do anything about it. So please stop fighting someone else's imaginary war, it's absurd.
That's all I have to say about past arguments, who cares can confirm what I said on the internet and in textbooks.

You did the same on MW (where, IIRC, they linked your various proxies to attempts to hack accounts ... that was coincident with a bunch of attempts to reset user passwords here ... including minel).
Then you moved to Usenet and trashed people there.
Hell, KLOV implemented the "$2 donation in order to post" scheme to stop you and your 100 personalities from further frakking up the boards.

I wish there was another way, and I wish I knew why any of that upsets you. Everyone else forgot about it as soon as they clicked "delete" button. But anyway, I am now asking you if you can forgive me. So will you forgive me, please?
--- Quote ---So, what exactly has changed that we should forgive your past bad behaviours ?
Really, what has changed ?
--- End quote ---
I have forgiven you. My behavior was response to "your" behavior. You people have created me, so you should embrace me. Don't you see, I'm your child. So love me, I tell you! -- Seriously though, what has really changed is that I have my own MAME build now, and more importantly it runs on Android. I believe there should be many people here interested in it, sooner or later, and I am here for those people, to help them set it up in their cabinets and fix bugs on their particular devices, and in return we all get better MAME. Do you have Android phone or tablet, have you tried it yet?

Everyone else forgot ?
::)
How many times have you been banned from an arcade-related forum in the last month ?
3 times that I can think of, so it seems that other people remember as well.
You have made absolutely no efforts to atone nor apologize for truly despicable behaviour.
You actually have the nerve to blame that behaviour on everybody else ... or is it just me that you blame ?
Oraap:
Ok, so Saint is willing to give me another chance. Thank you. I believe it's for two reasons, that he realizes I'm not so bad once you get to know me, and more importantly I think he sees the potential of Android devices and what kind of impact will that have on the future. -- Before I start the thread about Android devices,MAME and arcade cabinets I'd like to smooth out the things of the past in this thread here first, so people don't go to the technical discussion just to jump on my back because of some personal or emotional reasons. And if no one is interested in that discussion then please just let it die and I will be gone.
So... the past. Do you people even know what actually happened? Twas a long time ago, longer now than it seems, in a place perhaps you've seen in your dreams. For the story you're about to be told began with the holiday worlds of auld. Now you've probably wondered where holidays come from? If you haven't, I'd say it's time you begun...
On the first day of October 2010 Xiaou character posts this message on MAMEworld forum:
- "720... What IS Really Insulting, is that it CANT be played the way it was designed."
And Derrick Renaud had this to say about it:
- "Still waiting for xiaou2 to send me $50,000 to work on the input system for him."
Now, if you search MAMEworld and this forum you can see that was not the first time poor Xiaou was crying about 720 Degrees controller, and every time Derrick laughed at him. They spent months talking and arguing about it, about something that could have been done in 15 minutes! Well, fuk me, but I was not gonna stand still. I knew I could do it, I knew I had that power, and so I felt the responsibility, you know? Yeah, I'm flattering myself, and I'm aware that makes some people hate me, but I seriously don't like injustice and I believe there is a lot of universal truth said through the comic books and movies, so I just like to use that allegory whenever there is something "universal" I wish to express.
Anyway, the key moment in the whole story is when Xiaou sided with Derrick. What?! Yes, that's what he did, despite all their past and mocking. Not only that, Xiaou then started puking over my code that I made just for him, without ever even trying it out. Ay, caramba! That was unexpected. Until then I was just killing my boredom, but that's what really pissed me off.
So basically you can all thank to Xiaou for his ignorance and lack of integrity that you had to endure my craziness in its shiny colors. And there is the goblin to this day talking about the things he does not understand, fooling himself and lying to others, but at least Derrick is gone. MAMEworld screwed themselves, everyone got banned so only dozen people are still left on that forum, and three of them are just me, ha! Haze too seem pretty irrelevant now, and that's it. I don't really know what's the deal other people have with this whole story, I don't have any beef with anyone else. It's just that some of you guys were standing in the way of justice, the way I see it, so I am sorry if anyone took it personally, I didn't. And, when was the last time you had so much fun on the internet?!

Sorry, I am not gonna pin your behaviour on Xiaou2. If you are getting another chance, making your first action as blaming another member here is not a good way to make use of your clean slate. I never directly talked to you, yet I still got spammed by you. It wasn't the actual PMs that irritated me, it was that you were trying to push me into your problems. If you are trying to set things right, own up, take full responsibility, apologize; Cheffo's spot on about this.
Oraap:
Chef, your complaints have nothing to do with you. I did apologize, even though I believe I was doing the right thing. No one got hurt, so please stop making drama out of stupid internet argument. Do yourself a favor and let it go.
