Young folks brimming with enthusiasm may not always perfectly execute every rule of decorum or "read the room" correctly. But they're the force that infuses a scene -- any scene -- with new energy. Without that, it becomes a bunch of old men grumbling at each other about how much better things used to be. And the surest way to stay young in spirit as you get older is to stay inspired by the energy of youth. If you know any people over 70 who still have that light in their eyes (and you know the light I mean), they usually appreciate the young and feel uplifted by their energy, rather than resenting it. Sorry, couldn't resist the opportunity to use the .GIF. Note that I don't actually believe that this was the type of point you were making. In all seriousness, however, I do agree with you re: new blood. With that said, this is neither the first time that he has behaved like this, nor the first time he's been taken (lightly) to task for it. It's also an overall fatigued subject, given that the same 'wh3n d0 1 g3tZ d4 MM2 r0mZ, d00dZ?' question has been being asked sporadically by many, many people for approximately the past 22 years at the time of writing. The answers to that question are currently the same as they ever were, and continuing to repeatedly request them ('repeatedly request' being a kinder synonym for 'badger', 'beg', or 'demand') only serves to reinforce the idea of entitlement on behalf of the person asking it. One aspect of being a part of this or any other community is learning how to acceptably conduct yourself within the boundaries of that community. Hopefully he'll read this and realise why he's making choices that are not in his best interest, then change his approach accordingly. If not... Well, that's pretty much up to how he decides to approach things from here on out. Edited September 30, 2020 by x=usr(1536) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woah chill your beans there kid, first off who said that I was on myself? 2nd of all, I'm only showing my love for marble madness which some how you guys get annoyed by. Listen if you rlly have a problem with me, you should have said something ahead of time. You automatically think I'm going to have some meltdown if something dose not go my way. But why would I do that? You don't even know my personality so why would you even assume that? I'm not even trying to start an arguement here. Just because I say "sadness will happen" dose not mean I'm going to literally break down like some 7 year old. You also used maturity wrong. Considering that ONCE AGAIN! I'm only showing my love for the game and that's what you fail to realise. If you rlly have a problem with that then just don't talk to me.

It's another to think - based on no evidence whatsoever - that it'll see a release next month. What's worse is running around saying how badly you're looking forward to playing it when that's not something that's on the cards at all. What you don't seem to grasp, despite it having been pointed out to you earlier in the thread, is that there are people reading this thread and getting the idea that a release is going to happen. Congratulations: your enthusiasm is now snowballing into a rumour mill, and some people are picking up and running with your idea that the game will see a release next month. If you think this causing some of us to react negatively towards you, you're right. Some of us have had to deal with this sort of thing - and I mean this very literally - for longer than you've been alive. We've also had to deal with it multiple times over the years, and not just for this specific game. Having to nip the problem in the bud once more because someone is yet again shooting off their mouth is not something I want to have to deal with: it wastes my (and others') time, and annoys me that I have to clean up after yet another person who knows nothing about the situation yet adds misinformation to it. But you don't have to see or deal with the consequences of your actions, so as far as you're concerned, it's just HYPE TRAAAAAAIN WOOOOOOO! until November. Thanks, pal. Whether you decide to stay here or not isn't up to anyone other than yourself. But I will reiterate my earlier point regarding being part of a community: you have to fit into it, not the other way around. Plenty of us - myself included - are willing to help with that, but you're ultimately responsible for making it happen or not. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've gotten into marble race: https://store.steampowered.com/app/851640/Marble_Race/ https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=marble+race+custom+levels Its only $6.99, and you can create your own levels, there are tons of community made levels, and a lot are good quality. There's a lot of active discussion in discord, and can download the community levels for free. They''ve already recreated all the original marble madness levels, and all the hamsterball levels. Even if marble madness 2 comes out, they will never have a level creator, or as many levels as this game does. So i don't really care if it never comes out, because this is more than enough for me. later -1 Edited October 3, 2020 by negative1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ksarul Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Let's all chill a bit please--this is a hobby, and it should be a fun thing. We don't always agree with each other, but don't let a simple disagreement on any given subject @Jack the gamer 3 ruin your enthusiasm for the hobby. You are young, you have energy, and your responses are not always as mature as those from some folks here--and THAT'S OK! Be who you are--just like the rest of us are. That is what makes us a community. We all do what we do out of love for our favorite systems (or games). I like pretty much anything that runs on a TMS99XXX processor (they were made by TI)--and most of the folks here don't. That's OK too. I learn stuff from the rest of the folks here all the time. That's community too. I LOVE THIS PLACE! Marble Madness was never translated for my systems, but maybe it will be some day, and then I'll get to play a bit with it too. . .on one of my favorite systems. My wait will definitely be much longer than yours, I think. I'm still waiting for a good port of Joust! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know it was That rude and serious. I always saw it as a way to play a retro game digitally and have fun with it. But nope. That's not the case at all.. Putting that aside.

prOk Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 In an effort to clear up any misinformation on the release of roms for this game I thought i'd chime in. As of right now, there are no plans to release the roms but there's a very good chance it will happen at some point in the future. More people will get a chance to play this game, maybe not in the form some want but it will live on, just don't count on open roms any time soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see anyone jumping up and down for Akka Arrh. That was my holy grail. So when it came out, i might have been the only person on the planet that was happy to see and play it. I'm still playing it even now, (with the high score on MARP), and going through all the levels. http://replay.marpirc.net/r/akkaarrh http://replay.marpirc.net/shots/gif/128/akkaarrh.gif Akka Arrh (prototype) (akkaarrh) negative1 (@) 02 Mar 20 07:42:47 113,980 (edit) wolf212 get MAME Now its just as forgotten, as it was before. I also discovered Maze Invaders (which has been out for awhile) on atari flashback volume 3, and now its one of my new favorites. IF marble madness 2 ever comes out, people will play it for about 1 week, be all happy, then forget it ever existed. and go back to complaining about something else not coming out. later -1 Edited October 28, 2020 by negative1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
