I think it is not fair to blame Robbbert for this. It is clearly stated (not only once) that any issues with MAMEUI should not be reported to official MAME or the devs.
That is a user problem mainly and i see that often in other forums too. People rarely behave like intended.

I dont know, why such war-talk is needed. Why the need to make it public everytime? I mean you know each other well enough, to discuss these thing private and in a civil manner. It makes me sad to read such a thread, as it gives me this feeling, that in all the years, nothing has changed.
