Rev Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/2547-jr-pac-man-for-intv/page-2 Tried to make things better with the guy that was upset with the Jr Pac Man prank reveal. Only to get banned? Im not really upset or really bothered, its just a little weird. A request from the forum admin over there was ignored as well. Maybe maxRD or arenafoot, or Rick R can shed some light on why they dislike AA so much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+5-11under Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Pollution from other sites will not be allowed Good job Rev... you made an honest apology and turned back from your pranky ways in your first post there, and still got banned! Also, regarding Jr Pac-Man, this would have been quickly debunked or at least had more doubt noted, if there were less people who already knew about the project (from beta testing, etc.).

+Lathe26 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I just read the whole thread as my first visit to Atari I/O, ever. The thread seems like a lot of drama centered about how Atari I/O doesn't have drama. I hope that the vitriol in that particular thread is not representative of their site. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only to get banned? Im not really upset or really bothered, its just a little weird. A request from the forum admin over there was ignored as well. Maybe maxRD or arenafoot, or Rick R can shed some light on why they dislike AA so much? Wow! Some people have really no sense of perspective. It seems rather disproportionate to respond so harshly to such a silly stunt. It wasn't even a long-running scam. If anything, I think Eric overplayed his hand and Rev revealed it too soon. I never took any of it as having the intent to deceive, at least not in any malicious way. Oh well. I guess they can "keep their Atari I/O beautiful."

m-crew Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 like Cmart said "WOW" Some people just can not "let go of the peanut" as I would say. Man they a need to smoke a fatty and chill a bit..

+DZ-Jay Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 How beautiful is Atari I/O, let me count the ways... Here are some choice quotes from that thread. Enjoy they happy beautiful feelings! Beautiful looking game, but if this was a hoax to drum up some buzz their actions are abhorrent. Very bad taste IMO... I say we join together and boycott his website, if and when he releases his game. Had this happened here the topic would be removed and the Member permanently banned from the site. Gutted to find this was now a hoax by what we British would refer to as an utter w#nker... sorry but pulling a stint like that... is just disgusting.. Eric blah blah should be utterly ashamed. I utter condemn anyone who's actions be they physically editing video footage or making up fabricated claims... without a care in the world or thought for others. That'll be the last time I ever log into Atariage. Sleazeballs and douchebags. If Albert shows up to Arcade Expo, I may give him a hearty manslap. i hope Eric reaps what he's sown with this one..... Just the fact that AtariAge tolerates it disgusts me. As Justin said: delete the thread and ban the user. "Smugness" is a good choice of word. It's very off-putting. Thumbs up to Arenafoot for posting his disappointment over there. They turn into sharks quickly. That took guts. Probably still best you banished him and shut him down I guess... And of course... We want to welcome in as many great new people as possible, to join us and grow our membership... We built a COMMUNITY where others built a forum... In all seriousness this forum should be bloody proud of what it's achieved. I feel the love, mate! I do. I really do. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperboy Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 It appears that Atari I/O suffers from that disease called Sandinthevaginaosis. Sent from my non beer holding hand. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, but at the end of the thread it seems like they are quite happy with the game anyway and will buy it -- banning and boycotting talk notwithstanding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1500 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I'll admit, I never have heard of atari.io. What, what was that? Nothing. ha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 It's first I ever heard of Atari.io as well. Just got done browsing thru. I guess some people get angry when they feel misled?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intellivotion Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 if people get angry when they feel misled in a situation like this (...is it a proto?...it looks like it is... No, wait, it's only a new homebrew), they have no sense of humor. Rev, Eric and all involved in the "scam", that was fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Tarzilla Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Never heard of them either. I'm not creating an account to look, but how many members do they have? Atari Age has over 40,000. I somehow doubt they are anywhere close to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/5-house-rules/?do=findComment&comment=6 Why bother trumpeting your belief in free speech, only to write a page and a half treatise on how we'll ban you if we don't agree with what you've said? Ah well, live and let live. Fascinating little site. Reminds me of IRC splinter channels BITD. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Yah I was caught off guard by the level of vitriol in that thread. No puppies and kitties were murdered here folks, just Rev teasing an upcoming game in a fun and creative fashion. I hadn't heard of that site before Rev posted that link and clearly 99% of us wouldn't be welcomed there as it would appear that most of us thought it was pretty funny when it was revealed and therefore wouldn't meet the entry standards. There are a lot of upsetting things in this world but finding out that Jr Pac Man is coming for the Intellivision isn't one of them. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) The strange part is the threat of "man slap albert". WTF? Albert was NO part of it. I dont get the threat of violence. That is what led me to believe there was pre-existing problems loooong before my jr pac stunt. Anyone can shed light on that? Thats what im more interested in, than the situation surrounding jr pac. I still havent seen anyone from the IO forums post in here. Guys, dont be scared. We dont bite.....hard. Come on in here.

bradd1978 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I think there is a guy that goes by btbfilms76 I on here. He has a YouTube channel and he has mentioned he is a mod on Atari.io Maybe he can shed light on this? This whole thing is really bizarre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
