LostInThePast

Oh my god, he was even using sockpuppet account's SIXTEEN years ago...... I also notice a prophetic comment on the other link, re "Kieren again with the fantastical news of the Jaguar FPGA", namely "I've searched already on a few occasions and found nothing. I've now taken the view that you're either misremembering or lying, which wouldn't exactly be out of character for you."

Less than 50 posts to go till we hit the magical 1000, people ! On a slightly side issue, does anyone know if Kim, Octavius, Paul Rose etc are aware of this thread?

"He's like a cat looking out the window wishing he was part of what's going on" Surely though, he'd just boot up a VPN, create (yet) another account, bite his tongue (a bit of a long shot admittedly), and carry on as normal? Ive played games on over 40 systems (I was counting up the other day whilst bored to the point of seeing how far I could push a pencil up my nose) and only joined here - there must be many other knowledgeable users who similar to myself will join over the next few weeks, and months, making valid (and sometimes, forceful) points - who is to say one of those isn't in fact.....him?

I'm probably stating the obvious, and this genuinely isn't pointed directly per-se at Keiron, but, if I had been accused of half the shit he has, and I had "undeniable proof" of my innocence, the LAST thing on planet earth I'd do, is to say to people the evidence is out there - you only need to look. Id be cutting n pasting, posting, linking, quoting...in fact, Id be doing everything in my god damn power to show it clearly, concisely, and irrefutably that I was innocent. Surely that's what anyone would do ? Unbelievably, Ive been on the scene for....well, too many years, Ive bumped into quite a few people on here and the ones Keiron had, ahem, issues with, and even had to duck to avoid being hit on the head with a rubber penis from Paul Rose (yeah, I appreciate how that sounds), and bottled out of saying hi to Mr Dinosaur Pie himself, and congratulating him on the sterling monthly contribution to that podcast he does, but somehow, I seem to have avoided this guy. I have a strong bullshit-o-meter and probably would have just walked away to be fair if I did - I always have the urge to scream at the Retro Hour guys Dan and Ravi at their lack of knowledge despite their podcast only being about their specialist subject, but I'm digressing and waffling - enough for now!

Been a reader of this thread from the start, tried to remain out of it, but what the heck, Ive registered to chuck my tuppence in. Been a gamer since 1984 when I got a ZX Spectrum, worked my way thru to the 16bit era, did music for a few Amiga demo's, and currently have an XBox One X, so Ive seen it all, and met a few people mentioned on here over the years. The comment "Some people say just ignore him but it's not going to work in the end if we don't talk about his past online behavior to anybody who comes in contact with him" I think is the most apt out of them all. If we (as in the scene in general) just ignore him, he will spread his cancerous carry on elsewhere, and no doubt, going by his track record, reek havoc on the unsuspecting. Lets not forget, this 33 page and counting thread is only highlighting the issues we know of - how many other people are out there that have also had their reputation destroyed, their career ended, or had their mental health shredded due to him? I think now, all anyone needs to do, is if they hear of anyone going to work with him, or be involved with him in any capacity, is to tell them to watch that youtube video, and read this thread, and ask them to make their own judgement - is every single one of us wrong and this is an utter vendetta to destroy someone, or, is the person in question possibly just not worth the hassle of being involved with. Anyone of sane mind and body Im sure will come to the correct conclusion. And, putting the needle back to the start of the record again, do we really need to lower ourselves to his level and start arguing amongst ourselves like school children? Everyone is allowed to have an opinion about him, right or wrong. I think the fact some of us are making our point so strongly shows just how, well, strongly they feel about him. He has affected people in different ways, and annoyed others in other ways, so the points made / arguments started here of course will vary, but can we all at least agree that the villian in question isn't each other here.....it's him? And apologies for such a ranty first post people ! Ive been about for a while, just too lazy to register.
