Keatah Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 I really don't know why there was so much interest in a thread about a new cart-based system that everyone deep in their hearts know will fail. I think the hate inherent in some of the thread participants was awakened and it began to snowball. I don't believe it was as much about the product as it was the daily frustrations and need to vent. Unfortunate for Mike and co. Personally I don't care if the product succeeds or fails, I'm simply not in the target audience. And my commentary swings both positive and negative. As far as I'm concerned there won't be any more golden age games. Can't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 i was under the impression that the first thread was closed because it hit 199 pages... Sure looks like some threats of legal action against AtariAge if certain folks aren't muzzled. That's what a C&D is. Yeh? Yup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hate to think that is what happened. It would be hard to have any respect for someone pulling that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Fact is there is a C&D against AA or someone here.. don't know the details. I'm personally surprised at a lot of things, no time to talk about them. And not sure it's of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Fact? I assumed CPUwiz was joking. If it's real, it would be fun to read it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StopDrop&Retro Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 I would hate to think that is what happened. It would be hard to have any respect for someone pulling that. Agreed. Let's wait and see. But if that is the case, they have to be living in a vacuum to think such a choice would be received lightly by onlookers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Fact? I assumed CPUwiz was joking. If it's real, it would be fun to read it. Of course it was a joke. And why the fuck is this thread 2 pages long? Do I need to lock this one too, so I can have my peace for today? Maybe I should just put everyone on mod-preview, so nobody can read anything. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaysWithWolves Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 What if AtariAge received a C&D order on talking about the C&D order? It's like an onion... layers and layers. The Iluminati are probably at fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulBlazer Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 CPUWIZ, on 25 Dec 2015 - 02:13 AM, said: They will probably be re-opened later, so you guys can continue with your circle jerk. And yes, Coleco sent a C&D and specifically mentioned you. Merry Christmas, bitches. Next person who starts another one of the "We should stone Mike" threads, will be put on moderator preview, until after the holidays. Circle jerk? Really? For the record, I also support re-opening the thread. It's brought a lot of new people and attention to Atari Age, and should remain open and moderated as the one active thread here where people can talk about the system. I agree that one thread is enough, but closing it doesn't send a good message to newcomers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
