I was trying to post a link to source changes on a public MW forum, but the changes were somewhat against the spirit of the MAME license, and one of the devs objected and I removed the link. Simple enough, no hard feelings, problem solved.

Naw, ye got it all wrong, I was not aiming that at you one bit. I know you have been around and doing much good for this comunity and you knowledge of "stuff" (didn't want to write it all out) is priceless. I was more or less venting about the newb mentality and somewhat overly strong feeling that they are somehow entitled to our time and answers. Pisses me off. i had nor inentions of joining this forum. I had never done one before. I really got the majority of my fine education in the Arcade arts through the main website. then I srarted moving up to the heavier stuff, and now look at me, I wave to check if my new freakin phone can access the BYOAC forum before i buy it. (sad really). But none the less I know that your work and intentions here have been good and I myself have benifited fom yer info. So please know that was not aimed towards you.
But while I am back on the topic...(this is where everyone leaves the room) I say we continue to raz any newb with faulty that would never work. If it takes 8 posts or whatever to sell stuff. I think that there should be 8 posts in comversations before they can post. (cue prideful drum and horns dramatic presidential music now) So, if they a question that is more than silly and clearly on the search, then I say slap 'em with your pimp hand and feed em a load of bull schtukis. "Why wont my monitor turn on"...Have you tried adjusting your flywheel, or flux capacitors? Perheps it is the p136a space modyoulaetor. Have you replaced the wires with poly vinyl choride? The old stuff just wont work anymore. Becareful of the old leaf type button because they put off noxious gasses.
Or worse, the kind of stuff done in middle school. They ask a question. The reply is something like hey do you hear someone speaking here? MMMmm nope, I hear nothing, just sounds like blowing wind.
Well that's all for me. I am up WAY past my bed time. 5 year old ADD boys are nothing but parent abbuse when there has been no sleep.

Errm, I don't agree. I think you are mainly being facetious, but the problem is newb's who actually do try to learn will say "I thought I could just test with a known good power supply, but MYX told Newb-b that he should adjust the flywheel first, so now I'm confused." I see one of my main efforts on BYOAC to be preventing mis-information.

I like that better than the first suggestion, but still. I guess it just doesn't seem that long ago that I made my first post on here, which was something to the effect of "What is the difference between a 4 and 8 way joystick, and which is better?" (Not do I need both or when, which is better?).
So I feel a little bit of sympathy for the newbs.
