everyone should use yun…why waste your time?..dam, I GOT THAT ITIS
Why is this thread stickied? So I get to see Josh write his nerd talk and then not play? I understand Andy made a huge investment to make such an awesome place for people to play games at, but this is turning into a local thread. CB talking like he’s a black guy and Ed writing like stereotypical trash talking black guy does not deserve to be at the top of the forum. It’s not fair to the local threads from the other places and it’s not like TGA is the only place where people put time and money into an arcade and gaming community.
I don’t agree with Pryde in saying “fuck you” to everybody, but there’s no way this thread should be stickied either. I think TGA is an awesome arcade and I love all the friends I’ve made from the community, but sticky isn’t fair to all the local threads from other cities.
“Cause money talks and BS walks?” i d k, but all i know is:
CB’s a fucking BALLA! Oh by the way CB, Andy would like to talk with you next time you go to TGA :party: .
gotdamn rat fo chen. Stay at good times bitch
lmfao
Kang, these are my 18 points:
1-best arcade in the north east
2-best staff, for gamers by gamers
3-advertising is everything
4-arcades close faster than they open, and I’m an arcade supporter.
5-everybody asks where the place is, nobody knows where to wtite that question.
YOUR POINT**
6-you wanna get the ball rolling before you think about organization, when you can’t predict the future. If there were 4 other arcades that opened up along with TGA, then Pryde would’ve already mad a new sticky arcade thread, or added to the pre-existing one and not givin any “favoritism”. But since we know that major and moderate citie economys(re-shgl article, stargate article…do your homework)can’t support steady arcade business(ps3 xbox360 is coming…do your homework), we must as an arcade community, do our best to support our friends at TGA.
***YOUR POINT
7-when five other arcades come along in the ATL North, pryde will re-organize the forum. I have no problem with this…but there will never be 5 other arcades unless TGA shows success in the industry.
YOUR POINT
8-people need to talk about whatever in this forum because it creates hype. hype is business.
YOUR POINT
9-the locals keep the arcade going. Anyone in NE is pretty much a local, even NY peeps. They are the ones who will talk. They must make their prescence known, so people will want to come down here. Most people talk only about TGA related stuff anyway in all types of manner. If they read about us, they will wanna come. If nobody talked, this thread would be unvisited…I can hear it now, "TGA? Oh nobody plays there, let’s go to CTF this week."
KEVIN COSTNER’s POINT
10-If you build it they will come. All I hear from gamers these days is, ‘i need sanwa’ or ‘where’s all the comp?’ or ‘japanese version is better’ or ‘what happened to the OGs?’. If OGs were from RI, they’d be at TGA to, I guarantee it. Now Marcel will know where everyone’s at when the ATL North forum FIRST OPENS ON HIS WEB BROWSER!..“hmm, I wonder if peeps still play? Oh shit, they do! Check this place out!” then he gets in his civic and goes down to Woonsocket.
11-beatmania/ddr players view this sight to, i personally know 5 from nor-cal who only watch streetfighter but don’t play. They would be interested.
12-most srk users visit just about every forum on the web site. Now everyone knows about us(re-point 3).
IMPORTANT POINT
13-There isn’t one japanese arcade in the WHOLE F***ING COUNTRY! Canada beat us to the punch in Toronto!(orbit mall, home of T6). This is the first. I can’t believe this place isn’t on the front page of SRK right now! Infact, when TGA decides to throw a big tourney, there will be, count on it.
YOUR POINT
14-This is a StreetFighter/DDR Arcade, not some 6 year old fucking racing game, shooting bullshit with gangs and whores in it and the games are never fixed, like good times(unless you count RC whores like you, Nes, and Smooth). sure it is a family place, but it was made for you…plus it’s educational, learn japanese you bumbs.
15-example–PJC hadn’t played for 6 months, TGA opened, now he plays twice a week at TGA(not to mention at home) and went to EVO with other TGA locals.
*MY POINT
16-show some love.
*MY POINT
17-If I had the money I would’ve made an arcade to. I would want SRKs minimal support too. IMHO=SRK minimal support=Sticky thread
DONALD TRUMPS POINT
18-location is everything! This place is right in the middle of new england. It is centered to service the whole ATL North community
I’m not hating Kang, but, are you serious man? don’t argue for the sake of arguing. You know you love TGA.
IS this fair to all the other Forum Thread creators and users?
It’s totally fair. Like I said in the previous post, this places services NE and NY…basically the whole ATL North. It’s a new england/ny thread for everyone, not just us, don’t be so short sighted.
Think about it, if we had forums organized by arcade, we would have less forums, and less server errors, and less confusion(eg:“where do you guys play?”…“where’s the best place to play?”)
Hey, maybe there needs to be a new section called, Arcades, but they don’t exist anymore. Arcades existed when the internet was made only of text. what was that old IRC thing called???..alt.streetfighter.1995.iwishwehadforums.thesticksarealwaysbroke.comoder64/
O Ya, my bias: You get preferential treatment if you OPEN YOUR OWN ARCADE!!! :rock:
Call me a nerd all you want Kang, I’m not the one who talked about his Love Hina obsession at Fall River tourneys.
Name 5 other good arcades in Anorth.
Double Stamp It!
…I thought this before, … but just didn’t want to post it.
…well the sticky thing, and the josh thing… I dunno about the cb and ed thin… :xeye:
I didnt know a sticky was so important to everybody. If you really want to argue about useless stickies then go to the others forums and complain, or take this one down and sticky stupid pyramid schemes and random HK import stores.
EDIT: Josh shutup.
i can understand about people feeling this shouldnt be sticky but then again i understand it should be like people are saying it is the only all japanese arcade and shit works on point.i havent been going latley because of car and money issues but i will be again soon. you all saw how much i went to tilt even when you were all there playing it.and until recently how often was i at tga every saturday or sunday so it is bringing people together and like james said while we were at evo we only been playing there for like 2 months and we all got better to which i fully agree. despite what people say about coming down to play im sure they have the best of intentions but the real fact is we cant always keep our words and come when we say be it money issues or just personal shit sometimes shit dont work out
coco got it right in saying we need to support the arcade fully to ensure it sticks around when the others disapear because lets face it good times is garbage and so is tilt so what else do we have
ny got ctf and philly got up can anyone else think of any noteworthy arcades because i sure as hell cant.
it needs to remain stick at the top of the page so people can come in check out what we the consumer have to say about tga and make the decision for themselves to come down
look at the tourney ny cats came they didnt have to it was a good turnout better than i expected and im sure they knew coming down that there wasnt an enourmous amount of money to be won but they still came and thats the kind of publicity if u will that tga needs
hell we even had joey crack from nj come down not that i know who he is but its still cool because people are willing to travel even tho it sounded like he came from a cartoon when he talked
the fact that top players will come to ri to a little arcade is good advertising to the store
bottom line is it needs to stay sticky people stop complaining if other people wanted thier shit sticky to they would try a little bit harder and donate something like cb did so mad props for that
also andy takes and buys all the games out of his own pocket the man makes no money on the store other than bill money and some food im sure so come out and show your support
oh ps…im gonna rape u all when i start coming back around :tup:
I don’t really care about the whole sticky issue… sticky or not I’ll be at TGA on thursdays and sat. like always…
“Just remember everyone, whatever you guys give us it will be returned back to you to become something better.”
-you want more doubles cabs? We’ll get it!
-you want more games and hardware? BOOM you got it!
-and you want more competition??? we’ll do our best to get it, BUT technically that depends on mostly the community, not just the arcade(we’ll just keep up on maintenance).
We’re not asking anyone to fight for us, nor fight against us … We just want to build/revive something that has been missing in the Northeast fighting game community. We want to build the BEST FOR THE BEST! And we honestly believe you guys deserve that reputation and arcade luxury.
NY is probably the best competition in the Northeast, why? Because they keep competition alive, and they share one love. “We believe that we can do the same, and hopefully one day we’ll gain the respect and reputation CTF has.” (no bashing please on the quote) So let’s not fight, just play the games and have a memorable time, because who knows where TGA’s future is heading. Maybe it’ll become the new battle grounds for ECC? or it can become a ghost arcade? It’s up to you guys, sticky or no sticky.

Let’s keep the scene alive!
Just to let everyone know, this was never a personal issue, regardless of what you guys all think (or most of you). you guys have to understand, I’m moderating a forum and I don’t like doing any favors for anyone. Yeah, I think it’s a great to let everyone know that this arcade exists, but if it’s “all that” then everyone will keep posting. I don’t want anyone else in this forum to think that this arcade is getting “special” treatment. you gotta see this from the bigger picture. I do see it from coco’s view, but it’s I still don’t think it’s the proper way to go about it. As a moderator, I like to moderate fairly and believe me, I get alot of requests to get stickied threads, but I don’t do it, unless I think it helps out the board, not just one place or else, I would’ve sticked a Good Times thread along time ago. Yeah, say what you wanna say about good times, always having busted sticks, but hey, there are technicians there, not great as Brad, since he’s been gone, but if you keep badgering the manager, they’ll get something done on the spot, trust me, i’ve done it plenty of times. That’s all I have to say for now. And as for the “fuck you” that was towards one person and he knows who he is. he had to be a little cry baby about it, cuz he doesn’t see the big picture. it was never anything personal, this was for a “business” point of view. that’s all for now.
ness new sig is to fucking good. Everyone show up thursday and friday
nice editing nestor, let the drama live or let it die, your choice
that’s your drama now ness, not mine. I settled mine.
just remeber, this arcade is devoted to streetfighter or fighting game community, unlike any other arcade on the continent, that’s why i believe it needs sticky…plus, I appreciate arcade owners, I wanna help this place.
and i respect the business perspective, but i must disagree for right now, we’ll see in a year.
