There are many changes to MAME code which instead of to improve
MAME and fix old bugs introduce new bugs, bloat and unnecessary
hacks, however, we are not allowed to talk about it on MAME World,
BYOAC or KLOV forum, they expect you will pretend those bugs
and bloat do not exist.

Perhaps Aaron is being paid by Microsoft to introduce bloat and
slowdowns in MAME, for whatever reason Microsoft is doing the
same with their own software.

And as funny as that sounds, or not, the CONTROL of where the
project is going, or what submission are accepted, is not openly
discussed, it is not subject to public scrutiny nor there is any
voting and majority consideration when decisions are made.

http://polarelephant.blogspot.com/

Now, everyone knows about David R. Foley affair and supposedly
stolen MAME trademark, which lifted up quite some dust and made
a lot of people and general public angry. However, in the same time
the ownership of far more important MAME assets are not even
mentioned or discussed anywhere.

How did MAME get from Italy to Canada and England? How did
control over MAME get from Nicola to some Mr Mark Colgan and
some proxy firm called 'contactprivacy' ?

How is MAME a "public project" if all the decisions are made
behind closed doors and everything is controlled by some
unknown selected individuals? Who owns MAME?

> I Don't Know Why I Was PM'd About This

I am sorry, I wish there was another way.

It was random. Discussion of this topic is not allowed on any
forum that has to do with arcade games. And strange as it is,
I had no other choice but to invite random people here, as this
is the only place I know where we can talk about it freely. So,
since you are already here, let me ask you a few questions...

- How come you guys on KLOV forum, do not care about
ACCURATE PRESERVATION of arcade games?

- Are you going to pretend all your multi-game boards are
not actually running MAME?

- What are you going to do when your favorite game board
stops working beyond possibility of repair and there is no
other one left to buy anywhere in the whole world?

- Do you not appreciate preservation of all those game boards that
already have disappeared from the face of the Earth and now only
exist "virtually" in MAME?

- Do you not enjoy the possibility to check out all those games
in MAME you do not own and all those games you might never
even heard about otherwise?

.

Look, there is no real boundary between hardware and software,
game boards CAN BE emulated in such a way that there is no
any PRACTICAL input / output difference between virtual and
actual game hardware.

The problem is MAME stopped "emulating" those games,
they started "simulating" and "porting" to PC, adding shit
that should not be there just to make games work better
with PC monitors and PC devices, instead of making it
AUTHENTIC so they can work properly with ARCADE
monitors and original arcade controllers.

That's what I am fighting for, so how in the world are we not on
the same side here? Don't you see that's part of the reason you
do not like MAME in the first place, but the problem is not going
to solve itself, people need to be awake for revolution to happen.

You will have whole eternity to ignore this
when you're dead, but now, wake up and
pick your side, choose your destiny and
the future of your children. Skate or Die!

Its always going to be about you as long as you keep shitting on the
arcade forums I like. How many user names are you up to on KLOV, you
spamming loser? If anyone was interested in what you have to say, you
wouldn't need to do that. You just don't get it though, do ya?
You have alienated EVERYONE! MAME developers, MAME community and now
the traditional arcade community.

They ALL think you're a dick! Way to go, retarded robot!

Tim O,

You keep talking about ME, numbskull, following me around. Mentally
ill is your obsession with me, while your persistence to keep making
fun of yourself in the name of someone else's stupidity is mentally
retarded, emotionally crippled, pathetic and purposeless, moron.

Does any of it make the BUGS in Derrick's code disappear?

.

Derrick's nonsensical bloat:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/i2cjpzrcwc4bqvo/Derrick.zip

1.) "angle tracking bug"
- tracking gets off just by using the new menu

2.) "jittery rotation bug"
- analog rotation jitters instead of moving smoothly

3.) "flickering sprites bug"
- most obvious on the speakers at the start screen

Only once these bugs show up in MAMEtesters database, only
then I might consider to fix them, yet again. Thus, your choice
is either to look and see, or ignore and continue to make an
idiot out of yourself, and I already told you many times you
are welcome to ignore it, stupid asshole, so go back and
stick your brainless head in your ignorant ass, imbecile.

How did MAME get from Italy to Canada and England? How did
control over MAME get from Nicola to some Mr Mark Colgan and
some proxy firm called 'contactprivacy' ?

How is MAME a "public project" if all the decisions are made
behind closed doors and everything is controlled by some
unknown selected individuals? Who owns MAME?
