Laseractive/Laserdisc board suggestion

PunkCryborg · 06/11/2011, 01:25 PM

Is there any interest in adding a board dedicated to the Laseractive and Laserdiscs? There are a bunch of LD movie collectors on here and it would be nice to have a place to trade movies and talk about the Laseractive and its games. There is a lot this topic in the chat but it needs a place to call home around here. Buying movies is kind of a pain and it seems a lot of people have a nice small collection so we could have a really sweet trading post for movies.
Thanks!!

If it would get the CONSTANT babbling about it out of chat more I'd be ALL for it.

I hardly call it missing out....just WAY overdone/overrated.

TheClash603 · 06/11/2011, 03:05 PM

Laseractive sucks. I don't think this is a good idea. I will help even further by taking all of the other members' crappy LA stuff off their hands.

BlueBMW · 06/11/2011, 05:38 PM

I guess the root cause of all this is a real lack of an LA dedicated forum. I haven't found one yet. We just seem to have several people here interested in LA and other obscure consoles. Ill shut up about them since it seems to be a great annoyance to a lot of people here.

SuperDeadite · 06/30/2011, 10:04 AM

i don't see the need. topics would be few. chatbox is fine

I disagree, I think it would be TOO popular. That could be okay, but I wouldn't want to see the server crashed with the influx of rabid Laseractive fans.

Saibot · 07/01/2011, 09:15 AM

Nectarsis is just being the grouchy old man trying to piss in everyone's cheerios

It is a variation of turbo hardware, like it or not. I don't see the problem with discussing it or any other consoles, including Jaguar. If we start making too many rules about what we can talk about and what we can't, it's just going to drive people away.

CGQuarterly · 07/01/2011, 01:43 PM

I think that there are too many sub-forums as it is. Do we really need separate forums for the TG-16 and the PCE? In my opinion, the only forums that we need are:

TurboGrafx / PCE Discussion
PC-FX Discussion
Sales & Trades
Hardware / Mods Discussion
General Gaming (non NEC) Discussion
Off-Topic / Chit-Chat

Just talk about the laseractive in the console chat forum.

Chris

guyjin · 07/01/2011, 03:10 PM

yeah, a lazerdisc thread in chit chat and/or lazeractive thread in the PCE forum would work, methinks.

NecroPhile · 07/01/2011, 03:20 PM

I say FUCK NO! Next thing you know we'll have people clamoring for dedicated areas for every console or blu-rays/DVDs/CEDs or nectar's My Little Pony collection.

Hardly

Yet it is one of the only things talked about regularly, to much by many peoples count ;)

I agree with Nectarsis. The Laseractive/Virtualboy/NUON&OtherFAIL7gamesystems babble is a joke in chat.

However, I also agree with NecroPhile that the last thing i'd like to see is people posting about that nonsense.

Maybe we can have a discussion board EXCLUSIVELY about how lame the new V series was on cable... or maybe we could just

PLAY TURBOB & OBEY PCE

Hahahahaha!

I guess it seems to me, the topics of discussion are usually depending on the people doing the discussing. If there's not enough turbo / pce talk, then it probably means the more hardcore turbo/pce guys arent online. When Saibot is on, you can bet there will be obscure system chat happening. When Arkhan is on, you can count on random gibberish. When chop, steve, blueraven and I get on, you can count on some tech talk. When trevpwnsnoobs is on you know he'll be asking for something for free

My point is, we need more of the hardcore turbo guys online more in order to generate more turbo related chat / discussion. I'm guilty of talking about just about everything, so I'm not much help on the matter.

TheClash603 · 07/02/2011, 03:42 PM

If more people talked about the Camp California soundtrack, then I assume the Laseractive talk would die down considerably.

But seriously, I am sure I am going to get blasted for this, but... the Laseractive is much more of a NEC/PCE machine than the Super Grafx ever was. There are more games made for it that genuinely use the PCE hardware capabilities (the overlays), and it can play all the old games just like the Super Grafx. So to all of the complainers that also like to talk about the Super Grafx, I refer to you as hypocrites!

Saibot · 07/03/2011, 04:40 PM

That's it. It's settled. I think we should just talk about sex all the time.

geralds · 07/04/2011, 05:12 PM

Lol i think we should have a sub form at least for because it is t16/pce hardware but thats about as far as i would like to see it go.

Very nice

I will take the lack of a rebuttal to my Laseractive vs. Super Grafx factoid as a surrender by all the naysayers. As no rebuttal exists, the numbers speak for themselves.

Interesting topic, but did NEC/Hudson actually have anything to do with the LD-ROM² side of the hardware? From wikipedia (so you know it's 100% true), the format was created in the mid-80s by Philips for an new multimedia version of the Domesday Book (11th century survey); similar to the LA, it used video on the LD and an Acorn computer for control and overlays.

In other words, the SuperGrafx is superior because it's all NEC/Hudson; the LaserActive is slightly less awesome because it involved clog-wearing windmill-builders.

ASll the hard core turbo/pce guys arent online cause assholes are talking about butt fucking each other, or some shitty b rate system like noun, or some lazer disk crap that is nothing but a 3rd of a pce/tg system if that addon is put in. People always try to bring up pce/tg games etc. but it gets shot down pretty damn fast.

Saibot · 07/05/2011, 05:27 PM

Lol I have only one question, who died and left you n00bz in charge?

I'm going to tell you n00bz a little story. A long time ago, I belonged to this Doom site. Well they tried to tell us that the only thing we could talk about was Doom. While imps are brown and sexy, they start to wear thin after a while. Eventually everybody got sick of it and left. The end ^.^

Let's talk about attention, that's what this is really all about, right? You n00bz are not getting yours. It's not my fault that since I joined, like 5 members got a Nuon and like 9 got a LaserActive. I had nothing to do with it, honest. People are attracted to such obscurities on their own behest, and it has nothing to do with me. Honest

Your case started to have some weight, until you made up lies about people saying you can't talk about Turbo stuff in chat. Blindly slinging accusations without any proof to back it up, way to shoot your own credibility in the foot. Self-owned.

There's some truth to that - more than once myself and others have started talking about Turbobs and been mostly ignored while a nuon conversation will drag on for pages.

SignOfZeta · 07/05/2011, 07:40 PM

On one hand a seperate LA forum seems like overkill, but at the same time we have separate forums for TG-16 and PCE, which just doesn't even make sense.

Also, no, the chatbox isn't good enough. The chatbox sucks. Unless I stare at it 24/7 I'm going to miss the puny amount of usefull LA info that comes across it. The chatbox is most usefull for off topic things or maybe stupid bitching feuds between members.

SuperDeadite · 07/05/2011, 08:40 PM

The chatbox is basically the bar. Upon entering the bar one has 4 options:

1. Hear what the hotties are saying and join their conversation.
2. Skillfully steer the conversation into something you want to talk about. (This gets you laid)
3. Ignore the masses and talk to the creepy and/or ugly chick in the back. (Also gets you laid)
4. Say nothing, go home, masturbate, and cry.

Saibot · 07/05/2011, 09:07 PM

Lol you n00bz are way overstepping your bounds. You're not in charge, don't try to police the chatbox and tell us what we can and cannot talk about. You n00bz may think you got balls, but you got no teeth

I've talked to moderators on more than one occasion and they don't seem to have a problem with what we talk about in the chatbox. The only ones trying to control what is said is you n00bz, who have no real authority. Back down, and back down fast. Go running away like a little girl with your tail between your legs and cry me a river, crybabies

Yet still, LaserActive is a version of Turbo Hardware, so even if the rules state BLAH BLAH BLAH YOU CAN ONLY TALK ABOUT TURBO HARDWARE OR GTFO then we are still in the clear, so once again any point you n00bz are trying to make is null and void. Have a nice day

While I love Bonk and his own personal version of roast beef roid rage(laced with ecstacy), IF WE TALKED ABOUT BONK 24/7 WE WOULD GET SICK OF IT.

you can talk about whatever you want on the live thread. I never said otherwise. I was just stating that Im sick of you and what you talk about. I have the right to say how I feel and I guess your just upset cause your the bitch Im calling out. Im not telling you to stop. you have the right as much as i do. my opinion you killed the thread and im not the only one to say so.
lol as far as balls I got balls. big fukin balls. i wish this was the real world but its not. your threat of me backing down is weak. what are you going to do???

4) Once those ploys are laughed off, you turn into a typical internet toughguy with small man's complex and start sending me threats.

first off, show me where i was acting like a mod?
second off, where did u prove me wrong?
third off, you stated that you love how people acting tough on the internet. I stated lets meet in person and have a talk.
you threatened me talking tough.
and after all the crap you talk about lube, and sex, and all that other crap just proves you dont get any action. It has nothing to do with me having a small mans complex. thats just your assumption.

turbogrfxfan · 07/05/2011, 10:27 PM

ive done nothing wrong for them to bann me. Who here thinks Ive done anything wrong?????????

all im asking is for you to show me where im wrong and where ive been acting like a mod.
