Ignorama #126 Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) and... the home of several people banned from AA for trolling/BS/drama/fibs (pick one or more) and also the "team" behind the attempt to discredit AA with an abusive and fake AtariAge Facebook page.

slab0meat #127 Posted October 29, 2013 Is that a surprise that William likes this board since he was warned by Albert that his actions could lead to a ban on Atari Age? Birds of a feather flock together. This was a very necessary post. Thanks for your insight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Gemintronic #129 Posted October 29, 2013 .. which you've now edited at least twice. Anyway, thanks again. I think you double posted and Ignorama edited his comment at least that much. I think we're all going to hell for this topic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slab0meat #130 Posted October 29, 2013 I think you double posted and Ignorama edited his comment at least that much. I think we're all going to hell for this topic I didn't double post anything. When I originally quoted him, his post said just what I quoted, and had also been edited already. After my post, I saw his had changed and removed the first part, which equals edit #2.

Ignorama #131 Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) I dont think that my edit changed the content very much, as you can see And yes, I do often edit something, sometimes to correct mistakes, sometimes to make more clear what I want to say. This time the proverb says it all, so the first part was not neccessary. If you want to know what the first edit was: I added the word "was". Originally my post said "since he warned by Albert". But I admit, I am guilty of using the edit-feature Edit: And this proves exactly what? Edited October 29, 2013 by Ignorama Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You've been giving me the same advice when I misunderstood Wiliams intentions. I appreciated it. Relax. Step back. Enjoy the half game Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VectorGamer #133 Posted October 29, 2013 I didn't double post anything. You have two posts in a row above with one minute separating the timestamps - that's a double post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fushek #134 Posted October 29, 2013 This topic is like a train wreck. It depresses me to click on it yet I continue clicking on it. Destroying boxes. Everyone insulting each other. Everyone throwing in their opinions and taking up sides ... if I wanted arguments like this, I'd go home. Damn it, this is the place that I'm supposed to go to find something happy ... this is my HAPPY PLACE!!! A place where I can remember fond memories of my childhood and relive those moments of innocence through some wonderful games. Isn't that why we're all here? Not for this crap ... So ... stop ruining my happy place because we all know that's why this place exists! 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemintronic #135 Posted October 29, 2013 Well, maybe this topic should be closed. It's not an official press release anyway. I'm sure Games For Your Intellivision is aware of all the feedback so the real announcement will go smoother. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slab0meat #136 Posted October 29, 2013 You have two posts in a row above with one minute separating the timestamps - that's a double post. Incorrect. A double post is when you post the same thing twice, one being accidental (often from site lag or something). I posted twice in a row. Two postS. Not a double post.

Rev #140 Posted October 29, 2013 My original post was supposed the just show that it was being released. This thread is on the verge of being epic or locked. I have to ask those still coming to this thread: Are you buying the half cut cart? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemintronic #141 Posted October 29, 2013 I don't really want to pick sides. I do find the press release offensive to developers in general and not worthy of the Elekronite brand. I would consider it if William continues to be professional and tones it down. I really want a full release. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Utopia #144 Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) I'm buying one, and why not as it is well put together with a nifty menu and will look good in the existing box. When/if a new version comes out that would have to go in a new box or not at all. I plan on buying both versions if I get the oportunity.

Ignorama #145 Posted October 29, 2013 Pretty much the same answer as Fushek. Normally I would like to support the release, but this advertisement was awful and using the name Plimpton (which is removed at least) was even worse. And yes, it also lowered my desire to buy that I was called indirectly sycophant, just because I dont share the opinion of William (which is quite funny if you think about it).

It's like riding a bus with an advertisement that your current driver sucks but buy a half mile with him anyway. Doesn't inspire confidence in the service or how you'll be treated as an employee.
