Okay, well that's just ridiculous

Wait a second guys - Last night I assumed that you had beaten this person into submission and they removed the DBZ reference from the site.

No it's just super small, are you fucking serious? It took me 5 visits to even notice, and that's what this thread is about? HA

Edit: Okay, I'm going to actually say something useful to not add to the hyperbole:

The reason that well-meaning efforts like this fail around here is because the level of excitement that you're feeling as a new member of the community does not align with how jaded you can become as a chipmusic artist. A lot of people that have been here a lot longer than myself have seen things come and go that either drag away HUGE amounts of past material or HUGE amounts of information. Every time that happens, it is terrible and awful. Starting something like this (if it became successful/utilized) would likely become a job-level effort for you, and if you give up on it when the next shiny thing arises it hurts everyone. It's easy to give up on these things because they are not paying you money, rather you are likely paying to keep them afloat after awhile.

More importantly, these things are destined to fail unless there's some way to garner input from the community. If you put most of it together ahead of time, what's going to happen is a few people are going to hardy-har about your tiny (EDIT: Giant rather? Come on, man!) dragon ball z character and you'll become jaded. Jaded is the nirvana state of chipmusic. A better way to do this is to abandon weebly, start fresh, and brainstorm with some people which will hopefully prevent some of these things from happening. Hope you can appreciate the motivational speech and this is probably the wrong forum for nostalgia even though that's a bit silly.

Example #34,493 of how these forums seem to accomplish the opposite of community

Hey bud :-) I have another one that's not as clean but just as functional and unused, I'll PM you about it if you're down.

Funny story, I had purchased one from rainbowdragoneyes after his studio flooded (:-() with the caveat that it was underwater and may not work... I managed to get it running but the sealed power brick must have had some water in it and flames came out of the top - I was explaining this to a guy at Radio Shack, and he gave me a phone number of a guy that he said may have a power supply or two kicking around... a guy who turned out to be the original Northeast warranty repair guy for Commodore :-O I was only asking for a power supply, but during a visit to his house he took both of these out and told me he'd let me have them for $20 a piece... I gave him $50.

So yeah, no idea what they'll actually go for but I just hate eBay and dealing with randoms on there.. we'll see how it goes I suppose.

I am in the middle of building one of these now, but I'm afraid I can't test until I get my Mssiah cart back from my old roommate. Are the carts still available online? (About to google/answer my own question)

Edit: Yep 50 EUR each - if nobody chimes in on this I will start a build for you in a week or so. [email protected] to discuss if you're down.

Yeah, they're 500k's.

Is there some sort of community specific to this sort of thing? Because I'd like to be keeping up with it, seeing as I just got access to Max 4 Live for the first time...

DAMMIT :-) If it doesn't work out for some reason, I'm down. PS HI DUDE
