I was stating what was out there and we all got defensive and offensive. If you blacklist me its my fault for speaking from the dark side. I don't fully condone the use of roms but the temtation is too great for all, well most, of us. I DO NOT build MAME machines anymore and the machines I am building are all dedicated, but, are new PCBs. Go figure.

You have a great asset here to preserve the history of arcade machines. This was THE main reason for starting the business. I dont make a lot of money, in fact I just get by but its something I have a skill in doing and I really flippin enjoy it.

I am not here for trouble. I have vast knowledge of games, I build all my machines from scratch myself and I also restore dedicated ones. I am here to help others in there quest to building and owning there own arcade machine. Also to offer tips and tricks I find along the way. So if I post on your thread when looking for advice or help, please remember the good guy inside that has the some hobby as you.

Apologies again,

Malcolm.

What about the rule that says no one will open my chest, pull out my heart and rip it to shreds?! Spacies toyed with my emotions and left me to shrivel and die.

The topic is, "Is there a living to be made from arcade cabs?".  Where is there selling roms in the topic?  The real ignorance is going off topic, like you did.  Your count to the thread continues to grow? Are you trying to catch up. 

Bottom line is grow up.  Learn when not to speak because in instances like this your limited mental capacity is clearly demonstrated.

I was simply debating the same thing that had been being debated for the last 60 posts.

So, which of your posts were on the topic at hand...

Was it the first one where you called Saint a pirate and said this site is paid for by pirate companies?
Or is it the next one where you say you run pirate sites?
Maybe it is the 3rd one where you ask where to get the pirated boards?
Is it one of those next 2 where you berate CheffoJeffo and call him a tool for telling you that discussion of where to get roms is illegal?
It has to be the one where you laugh because people are still posting in this thread, right?
I know it wasn't the last 2 where you were futilely arguing with me.
Wait, I found it. The only one I missed...

That is actually the most informative post I have ever seen you post on the boards. Good job, bud. Now shoo before you make yourself look even more ridiculous.

While I admire your determination to waste time analysing my posts, I have to ask what's the point?  I'm glad you also found my knowledge of Sweden informative.  May I suggest you spend a little less time in front of a computer and maybe more time exploring the real world.  Like a vacation outside of your computer room or garage?

Opps... I almost forgot, "I love yoooouuu man!"

It is like beating a friggin' dead horse with you dude. Anyone with half a brain can tell that you made no point and continue to do so.

The 400-in-1 kits were running $350-$450 last I saw (about a year ago) and the list of games was less than impresive (now, you could hack it, but for $450 you're better off with the PC).

Cheers.
