ApolloBoy Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Just search for posts by user retromod. He acted as a big a-hole here, his modding was low quality craftmanship and the result of his sound mod disappointing to most. People here have good reason not to like him, and not to trust in his abilities to mod anything. Didn't he also have a history of intentionally scaring off other modders in the European Atari community? IIRC he was strangely paranoid about RoHS and WEEE regulations despite the fact that they don't apply to hobbyists, and he would try to intimidate other modders by bringing up those rules. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 AND the first thing he did after coming here was badmouthing established AA members' mods in public, or their pricing. Which is ironic seeing his soldering, which put him being cheaper into relation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I may have to go find that nutjobs mod videos on youtube that sounded like crap and post them here . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinks Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I may have to go find that nutjobs mod videos on youtube that sounded like crap and post them here . Ah hell I think we got the point accross last time guys. Its a reverb effect over the audio to me thats all it is. So some echoing and whatnot to make it sound stereo. Walt is a great guy in the 7800 scene so if he likes what he has lets not spoil it. That is all I am trying to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambler172 Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Hi Guys we should stop here....No one should criticize another and should accept everybodys work.... and if someone does not satisfy,you should tell him personally and not in a community....If i have a problem with someone,i can tell him under four eyes....And i never look any videos.....i want to see something for myself,then i can decide if something is good or not.In the USA you should ise Yurkies or Longhorns mods,which seem to be great....shipping costs from Germany ars too heavy.I just wanted to show the 30 th edition,which is great....However the systems are PAL,but for a collector,who wants a PAL system, this is a good offer.....Remember how much AX wanted for a 25th edition.....Special editions with some extras are more expensive So now we told enough...... greetings Walter Edited December 17, 2014 by gambler172 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is ironic seeing his soldering, which put him being cheaper into relation. Hi Stars i agree..,if prices are too high for me,i do not buy... But i never criticize anyones prices. If you want to buy something,either accept the price or let it be......I own an NTSC system which was modded by Shawn and it works great after all the years.If i take the 30 th system,i cannot see any difference between the modds..... So both are ok for me greetings Walter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2600 Forever Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Walter, to a lot of people, it doesn't even have anything to do with the stupid mod. I used google translate, I think this is the right description for the guy: Arschloch From what I heard, this clown even accused CPU of stealing the code for the Dualshock adapter and takes every oppertunity to bad mouth AA on Facebook (including Albert!). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambler172 Posted December 18, 2014 Author Share Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) Hi Guys like i said....... CPU does such great work for the community.......i do not think,that he steals some code....he is clever enough.....to do this alone.And AL is the father of Atariage And i was never involved in the whole process wirh Retromod. Just wanted to show something for collectors. Never thought about so much trouble....sorry greetings Walter BTW words like A....should not be used Edited December 18, 2014 by gambler172 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gambler172 Posted December 18, 2014 Author Share Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) Hi Bob Hi GW thanks for the kind words.I am really disappointed about what happened in my topic.I just wanted to show something......., So i will never post anything like this in the future. There are many nice 7800 projects i could show, but for now....i will only show to friends via PM never post it in the forum again. greetings Walter Edited December 18, 2014 by gambler172 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Hi Bob Hi GW thanks for the kind words.I am really disappointed and angry about what happened in my topic.I just wanted to show something......., So i will never post anything like this in the future. There are many nice 7800 projects i could show, but for now....i will only show to friends via PM never post it in the forum again. greetings Walter Please continue to show any developments you may come across, and understand that any of the negativity was a result of what "retromod" instigated and planted here. You, my friend, are a gem, and I add my voice to those who know the caliber of your character. A similar passion though exists for those that did not take kindly to "retromod's" attitude and actions in this community and elsewhere. The onus is not on you, though. It's a shame retromod gave the impression he did, especially if his products are of good quality. Regardless, please continue to share and contribute to the community with developments, Walter....And thank you...It is appreciated. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynxpro Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Oh god him again ... his (modded) consoles sounded so horrible . He posted videos on youtube back when he showed up terrorizing Atariage . That guy is such a malaka. I don't know why he hasn't been banned from the Atari Museum Facebook group.

Retro Rogue Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 That guy is such a malaka. I don't know why he hasn't been banned from the Atari Museum Facebook group. Because while he tends to annoy the hell out of peopl sometimes (including ex-Atari people), he hasn't crossed any of our lines in the sand yet. And we don't ban people based on what goes on here.
