How long have you been around? Back in the day, before Mantis, when bugs were reported on the MAME Testers board here, Mamesick was infamous for invalid bug reports and hacky “fixes” that didn't match hardware behaviour. Even worse, he’d argue endlessly with people who actually knew what they were talking about. Do you remember the saga with NeoGeo raster effects, where he tried to insist that they somehow weren’t possible if interrupt 2 was disabled, even when there are games that do them just by counting CPU cycles? His “fixes” for the watchdog-detection protection were equally invalid. That’s just one example of how he operated for years.
