Fix'd correctly this time.

I am not capable of social interaction....

I'd just like to say-

Learn how to punctuate what you type. Throw some grammar in while you're at it, and add a sprinkling of correct spelling.

In the game of

REAL LIFE

nobody cares about you but a select few that you keep around you. Sadly, much of this is also true on the internet, save where a few people have set up sites where others gather- such as this site. Even then, you can't expect other people to hold your hand and guide you in the ways of a hobby- nobody has done it for those who came first, now did they? It's a hobby, they figured out how to do it, and did it. Some succeeded, while countless others have failed. You meanwhile, have an advantage- you can scour the wastelands of the web (and this forum) and glean information in small packets that others have dropped here and there. While not being a tutorial (which as stated before, is NOT owed to you for merely existing; it is merely a nicety somebody has passed onto others), it is far more than the first comers ever had, beyond their own knowledge of electronics and ingenuity.

What Ben makes from his book is probably pennies compared to what he makes from modding. It's probably not even enough to pay for the forum

lol this was my exact point look within what a couple hours literally of this being up its a page 2 almost 3 thread? and..... i see posts from people asking simple questions that have been up for days and sometimes weeks with not a single answer. but someone will take the time to bash someone right away but not answer a single question like "how would this battery work out? would it be troublesome or should we try something different." hows this for a public display of what kind of crap are around here hahahahha copulate posers

bash away im sure tomorow this will be a page 5 thread of people bashing but ask yourself do you think i give a crap ? and yes i have found tutorials on how in detail to create the dreamcast portables online that is no were offered once in this forum and we got a bunch of weak pussies going ohh we dont want to help beacause out "art" is precious lol spare me if you helped 1 person thats all 1 person that is somewhat understanding of what is going on and posted it in a newbie section or a tutorial section or hell sticky it then all could refer to that persons experiences and questions and you wouldnt have as much crying about constant flows of noobs asking questions. I think we need some new moderators lol or make the entire forum private? but i would think the more people that would successfully create new portables the cooler mods the forum would see not a couple that look like they were made out of scrap drywall while everyone is blowing each other over it hahah

What again? Is that English or did you shift button break? I am sorry I do not help people who can't find it in there heart to at least try to help the reader actually read what they are writing.

Everyone can bash morons, to answer a question, you need the answer. Ever consider that?

Besides, we're not getting any money for this, we're not obligated to help everyone and everything.

who says a lot of these people wouldnt pay for someones service to the modification community as well as themselves?? I would have purchased it if it was for sale in the appropriate area?? I know others would have as well.

Kyo · Post by **Kyo** » Sat Jan 10, 2009 3:13 am

so what's your point, you complain about a lack of service and yet you suggest we should take money for it?

You know if you just got a multimeter and a little initiative you could built one on your own

Tat2artist · Post by **Tat2artist** » Sat Jan 10, 2009 3:15 am

everyones crying about not making money well how about some reform for the entire forum in creating a tutorial section and its pay based or as you can sell systems why couldnt you sell an e-copy of your own personal tutorial?

uhh yeah Ive had that for a while along with my soldering irons and my systems and screens and leds and spare wiring among many other things that have been suggested on this site. but again like I have asked I dont understand the powering problems with dreamcast nor do i understand if i use the multimeter and i see a 12v how to step it down to 8v or whatever is needed on any modification as I do not understand which resistors to properly use or how the circuit works and if it even recharges the battery as well as certain batteries need the extra chip. and does this chip need different wiring that may or may not interfear with the recharging of the battery and so forth. again tutorials needed.

Because if it was pay based everyone would say F this and leave.

Then why can't you do it? The first portablizer (Ben) had only beer and he made a portable Atari.
