Dream Authentics LCD Claims

<< < (9/13) > >>

CheffoJeffo:
See -- you *are* genesim (and, for reference, that's not a good thing).

Only somebody with that level of arrogance could try to explain to the rest of us what this site is about. There is only one man (and you ain't him) who can tell me that this site is about emulation.

FWIW, I *do* play my classics on an actual arcade CRT in actual dedicated cabinets with actual controls ... and *THAT* was the point, you silly noob.


northerngames:
 I know some arcade's leave there machine's pretty much on 24/7 365 and most machines are good for some time that way with no issues but I have no clue how long a lcd would hold up that well against a constant run like that.

 I know some of the lcd's they leave on at k-mart wal-mart and what not look terrible and have screen burn or color problems dead pixels etc. and they have not even been on their shelves very long as displays and they may even turn them off at night for all I know and if so they would get damaged even faster of coarse and the bulbs may burn up alot faster with a constant long run.

Do you think making a comment (which is stroking the moderator) & using words like "us" when I talk to "you" will create unity for your perspective?

Not even google knows what your word "genesim" means so pardon my ignorance. Furthermore I am not arrogant, just opinionated. You disagree with me & seem to view it otherwise.

My status is noob?

HAHA!

Congratulations on buying some dedicated machines, I guess you are now a true authority on all things arcade related. If only I had the $1,700.00 it takes to buy 9 beater machines on ebay.

I typed this on a LCD monitor BTW

Cheffo I am not here to battle you, we have much in common......just not LCD opinions.

I also edited this on a LCD monitor

CheffoJeffo:
As I told genesim, I have lots of LCDs .. including the monitors that I use with my computers, such as the one I am posting from.

As I told genesim, I don't object to folks using LCDs in their PC-based cabinets.

As I told genesim, the sad thing is that the folks who lose from the demise of the CRT are the folks who actually are preserving actual arcade machines.

Only a noob would think that I would "stroke" a moderator -- if I had a dollar for every time that saint thought about banning me, I could probably open that store that Flake talked about.

You deigned to make the ridiculous statement that "this is BYOAC" and that my viewpoint doesn't below here -- that's arrogant.

I don't think that you understand what my perspective actually is -- I am sad because the demise of the CRT makes restoration and preservation more difficult, not because I think everybody should put CRTs in their MAIM cabs.

I am not sure why you seem to think that I have 9 beater machines that I got from eBay. I have 24 machines, of which 8 are beaters, but none of those beaters came from eBay.

You may not be here to battle me, but I am one of those folks who love coin-op and don't like it when folks cheer events that harm the hobby.

pinballwizard79:
Settle down Steven Segall I was only off by one beater, you have 8 not 9.

FYI: I am not cheering at the demise of CRT for the purpose of restorations.

Thanks for the nickname of genesim, yours is "arcade prima donna".

Death by ungabunga!!!

Whatev, Cheffo lets get back to drinking & retro gaming (on the same team)!!!!!!!
