Continuation of HAZE and ark-adr's legal conversation re: MAME, etc.

A particular web site we know of had a policy where the very mention of your name was an immediate ban.
I'll have to dig the thread up, but can you remember that heated discussion? It was funny in an unfunny way.
Sure sounded familiar when you rudely interrupted our thread and threatened everyone.
Darn it!
Now I have sunk to his childish methods...forgive me.
I should know better.... :lol
Oh was there a question related to this thread somewhere?

Why would they hand it back to me? Why haven't they handed it back to Nicola? Your question is as absurd as every single other thing you say. The current co-ordinator of Micko makes *perfect* sense because MESS is our primary project these days due to it being the one with the most relevant future and widest potential application. There is no Mamedev anymore, it exists only as a more familiar way to express what is essentially the MESSdev team these days.
Mameworld? The admin of a private site were man sausages, they continue to be so. Their ban on mentioning my site did irreversible damage to MAME because it made the project look dead for those who didn't know the real source of current news was my site. Bashing me became something of a sport, it probably still is, you continue to do it, because you know I'll fight the correct points because I don't like having people like you try to repeat the same old incorrect garbage until it sticks. Note, there is no ban on my site being mentioned there now, there is no ban on me registering there now, I choose not to, they decided that having an in-group of people taking photos of women when they weren't looking and posting borderline porn was more important than MAME, they can live and die by that decision for all I care. Their site, their rules.
You, like other trolls clearly get your kicks from wasting the time of others when it would be better spent elsewhere, sadly until you're banned *somebody* has to come in and correct the absurd rubbish you post before it actually causes harm.

I'm sorry Haze that bit of insight was uncalled for.
Please forgive me and let us be civil in this train wreak of a thread. :angel:
So you are setting the record straight that you alone was carrying the project, and you didn't scare off the other developers with your strict attitude and approach. I stand corrected sir.

Alone? no.
A significant part of many goings on? Yes.
Presenting a lot of the rest of what was going on in a form easy to digest by the general public in the lack of an official WIP page, yes.
Scaring people off? Look at the number of people I've worked with to convert findings into actual emulation, evidence would suggest otherwise, people who come back again and again. What puts people off is when they put a ton of work into researching things and then find there is little interest from devs in actually taking that further and creating something usable with it. By showing people you value their input, and putting in the hard work + dedication to make something out of it you encourage further work.
Interestingly I have noticed it's usually the people who have only ever worked alone, on very limited scope parts of MAME who make accusations like that one.
MESS is simply becoming the primary project not because devs have been scared off, but because like I said, it has more scope, there is more to do, it's less restrictive and in many senses more enjoyable to develop for as a result. The remaining arcade problems are hard, and while the public might not value some of the breakthroughs that have been made over the past year as much as they did 10 years ago a number of them are amazing pieces of work. The bar to actually be able to pull these things off is forever being set higher and requiring even more time, work, dedication, and in some cases luck! Very few people are able to give that.

Civil and passive aggressive are poor bed fellows at best.
