Nah; it's the same crap that happens all the time here:
Well-meaning poster steps into a minefield when they post something that invokes some ancient history about a flamewar that happened years ago. Then some MAME devs post something that rubs someone the wrong way; there is a response critical of the MAME dev, and then a bunch of other posters fall all over themselves with adoration of MAME devs and disbelief that anyone would ever write anything critical of a MAME dev ever.
Then some people complain about all of these unreadable posts that have now increased the average post count per day on these forums from 1.3 to 1.4.
