Yeah its a ghost town but your posts are still off topic. Perhaps there just isn't enough interest for a stand-alone software board. Saint should probably just remove it and let anything arcade cabinet related get posted here.

Nothing personal, I appreciate your hard work. Something about you jumping all over the *Yawn* guy just struck me the wrong way. No hard feelings.

: The software board is like a ghost town .....

: I can see my own post at the top of the page I made last year. If you guys would actually visit it then I would be more than happy to post it over there. And it's dead on topic if you ask me. I made this front end because I got tired of finding FE's that didn't have arcade controls in mind when they were designed.... Alot of them expected you to use a mouse, and stuff. I post it here because you guys are really helpful with suggestions and stuff. Alot of the other boards, even those software related have nothing going on besides people complaining about how "bob's mame" won't run or that they can't find a certain rom. I actually get feedback and stuff from this board.

: As for the hype, it's just good marketing. I wan't everybody to try my front-end because I want to make it as good as I possibly can. This can only be done if alot of people try it out and give suggestions. Besides hype is generally only negative when someone wants you to buy something. My stuff is free man. And it's never just hype either.... I've delivered every time.

: And besides, how rude is that? Something that I've been working hard on for months, in secret for the longest time. I decide to share it with everyone and generate some excitment, and someone posts that... for no reason either, just to be mean. I love it when people say they don't like something because...., but posting negative comments just to be sinical is rude and childish.

: I'll continue to post news about the Rd on this board... I get alot of positive feedback every day, and the site is about to break 3000 hits, so some people out there are definately interested. I do it for them, not the nay sayers. This doesn't mean that I'll turn the other cheek though....

:
: : *Yawn* = Tired. Tired of constant off-topic hype on the wrong message board. Try the software board. The announcement of a new upgrade when its done is great, but you have to admit you're an awful lot of hype/discussion that is in the wrong place.
