Hey, can you lock that page? MoochMcgee has been shitting it up by removing the PCem recommendation and shilling for 86box(WHICH HE IS A DEVELOPER FOR!). I removed his vandalism, but 189.69.137.140 keeps reverting my changes.

== Spam surge from Indian cold-callers ==

Prob a stupid question but is there any reason we aren't running newer versions of the wiki software? most of these releases are EOL, e.g. MediaWiki 1.32 is almost 6 years old, and there have been 2 LTS releases since that time, and current wikis are encouraged to use some version of PHP 8 instead of 7.

There might be a good reason, I just do not know what it is.

That way there should be less bitching in the thread about it, if you agree though you need to lock the page as there's this faggot who's just gonna remove the redirection out of his personal vendetta against the Reddit boogeyman.

It's WebMint. A former contributor on a new alt account. I've been blocked on this wiki for over a year and I'm requsting to be unblocked on my previous account so that I can contribute with it again properly. It was justified and to explain my last behaviour, I couldn't handle criticism and was too obsessed with attention but instead of taking accountability, I've been taking it out on you and the thread with angry gibberish inserted over on pages like this. - [[User:Tukutu|Tukutu]] ([[User talk:Tukutu|talk]]) 17:17, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

:Boo-hoo, "I need an adult" much? That page was removed as part of a conseus between regular collaborators here since it was being hotlinked elsewhere, from sheltered ignoramuses who don't even care about the wiki to look up its front page, and since it was a lightning rod for everything hotlinked there that many people here took great pains to upload only for it to be served on a plate of gold for your lazy ass and Sony lawyers. Even Playstation sets were taken down which is a first.

:The only bitching about this was on external sites, not for anyone here who can read. We're all good here. The only reason you want to restore that link which is not referenced anymore ''in this wiki'' but updated to the newer page, is that you want a link within some external site post leeching off here fixed. We ain't compiling links just for your shitty reddit karma. Make your own pastebin and link to it, leech.

:::The page and the links we upload (some of it is fucking hard to find) and add to it still remaining online is a concern that trumps the convenience of dumbasses who can't browse a wiki to a page literally two clicks away, or the convenience of those who bend their asses backwards to cater to them... if that demographic isn't made up to begin with. They can get fucked for all I care. I checked the thread just now btw and it was just one poster (you?) bitching about it. The takedowns on the other hand were a pattern, and were very real.

::::It's common practice to turn the old page into a redirection when moving a wiki page you ignorant jackass, also warez get taken down because they're illegal, not because they're listed on some obscure wiki. If you're really concerned about the links getting taken down you'd suggest that they be deleted completely from this site and move them into some something password-protected instead. Whether you admit it or not, you're opposed to my suggestion because I called you out on your ignorance so now you're trying to get your petty revenge on me.

Request[edit]

Can you set the page Recommended emulators to admin only? I think it's too important to be left unprotected. Yeahwhatever (talk) 23:54, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

MediaWiki current version(s)[edit]

Prob a stupid question but is there any reason we aren't running newer versions of the wiki software? most of these releases are EOL, e.g. MediaWiki 1.32 is almost 6 years old, and there have been 2 LTS releases since that time, and current wikis are encouraged to use some version of PHP 8 instead of 7.

There might be a good reason, I just do not know what it is.

your enemy (4chan)

Alright, things are becoming even more unclear. What on earth is going on? and why would the website 4chan be my adversary? I don't even know it to use it!


Like everyone else, I am simply making a contribution. I realize that the attempt to somewhat alter the main page's design was made quickly, but everyone else is also making a contribution to it in the SandBox that was made by another User.


Additionally, I wrapped most of the tables in responsive divs because they were so clumsy on smartphones. Some users proposed wide tables to accommodate additional content, but if that constitutes vandalism and chaos, then this is just plain stupid.


I do not really have many enemies on the internet—more like differing viewpoints than actual enemies—but I never participate in negativity because I want to use the internet to further emulation and have a positive impact, which makes me happy.
