right, it's feedback.
maybe my original post was a bit rude, but I'd just got off the phone to a friend who would have probably been quite willing the murder MASH and done the time for it had he been in the same room.
I get that some people still go to the Mameinfo page for an easily digestible version of what's been going on in MAME, but at the same time it's no longer even covering most of MAME, it's *inventing* categories (things like AGEMAME existed for about a 1-2 year period in the life of MAME, there's no such thing anymore) and a lot of what is there is just slightly reformatted copy+paste job without any real understanding of the work being done.
The presentation of the site really is that of a teenager in the late 90s getting the internet for the first time, auto-play wasan't cool then, it isn't cool now, it's basically akin to attention seeking. the animated backgrounds and random javascript crap that ends on there during holidays etc. is the same thing, it isn't cool, it isn't entertaining, it's just annoying (one of the more recent ones caused the browser to extend the page continuously until it ran out of memory and crashed if left in the background)
