At the SPM last night im trying to get a picture of a AAA on dynamite rave DBSM (i was just setting my camera i didnt AAA it yet) so i get my camera and begin setting it up to take a practice picture of the screen and this new guy working there comes up to me and says you cant take pictures in here......umm everyone else does it i said to him its a picture of a High Acomplishment (i assumed he didnt klnow what a AAA was but he will see more E15.gif) but he said you still cant take pictures so i was like WTF. so then later that day i brought out my soda it was a 2 liter of mountain dew nothing big but like 2 hours later he says you cant have any drinks on the machine b/c it was in a burger king cup so i was like again, WTF you bumhole and then later on i was in the song select screen and out of nowhere a little kid comes along and passes through the space between the pad and the machine itself. well my drink was on the ground...the kid saw it...and decided to steal my straw disgust.gif and i pushed him back saying excuse me thats mine so i put my cup on the machine so the kid wouldnt come back to get it and 5 minutes later the new guy says to me take your drink off the machine (he saw the kid take my straw) i was so P/O at this guy but i didnt want to get banned from the mall. i would have beaten him up but luckily another guy was working with him on the floor. he lets mr do whatever i want drinks, girls, anything i want to do


so tell me does this or similar events happen to anyone

OH YES. LUCKILY another guy was working on the floor or you sure would have shown him. I'm sure you would have easily worked him over. But thank GOD AND JESUS that there was another guy, or that guy would be in intensive care.

Stop trying to flaunt your non-existent internet penis.

Those are the rules of your arcade. If you have a problem with them, DON'T GO. You should be happy that you weren't told to stop before. If you think that you're in the right, talk to a higher up and have them talk to him. But trying to be cool on a message board will get nothing done.

To what Spike said: Ouch... just ouch...

Onto the actual topic: When such an event happens (I mean when an arcade adopts policies that don't fit my personal preferences), I just don't go there anymore. No use trying to argue over that, it generally leads nowhere. There's one arcade in Laval (city near Montreal) that appears to have "policy problems" such as that (along with nepotism, but that's another story), and they don't have that much customers anymore...

Their loss, their problem... shouldn't be yours...

Can't say that it's ever happened to me. But if it did, I would just explain myself in a mature manner. If that doesn't change anything, then I would find another arcade to play at.

OR, you can just save up money and buy the game and then you get to have your own dang rules and play whenever you want without having to pay $.50 - $1.00 every time.

I work at a arcade..in the mall.

From working there, the reason why we don't want people filming in our store is, Because we don't want any other arcade's (Peter piper pizza, Chuck E. Cheese, any other place with arcade games) to secret shop us. To see what we have and what kind of redemption stuff we have.

So, if you wanna use a camera in their arcade you'd have to get premission from them first. And probably just agree to them that you'll only film the ddr machine.

So you come here expecting people to sympathize with you when you're pushing little kids around? You're not a real man till you beat on little kids.

If you don't own the arcade, then you don't make the rules. That's the way it goes. All of the rules make sense in some fashion or another.

nevermind an employee from another arcade out of uniform can just walk in and take notes... lol

as for the guy with the buttocks manager, yea well, new guy usually means new rules. if you don't like the rules, tell the manager that you will take your money elsewhere. I know the kind of money I drop on a DDR machine. if he still gives you crap, just leave. that's less money for them, and you get another DDR machine. that's just less money for them. stop acting like a whiney brat that thinks he is going to be people up with your baby hands E10.gif

Hey, speaking on behalf of Pi, we don't make the rules, we just follow them. If the higher ups at tilt decide something, we kinda have to do it, since it's our JOB.

Eh, come to Lubbock. If I'm working, you can take all the AAA pictures you want.

I'm locking this now, because a few of you decided to also try to be cool like the OP. You'll notice by the warning points in your PM box that you failed.

Locked.
