(tl;dr: Technically, I could play barefoot just fine. But I prefer not to. Mainly because of all the dirt and trash that is on people's shoes that gets onto the pad. I don't know what your arcade pads are like but the arcade operators around here clean the panels maybe once a week with a minuscule amount of Windex.)
I think you forgot the purpose of the "tl;dr" text. "tl;dr" is supposed to be used to precede a shortened and more concise version of something that was more verbose than some people would prefer. The more verbose version is often longer than people with less time want to read, thus a short version is necessary. You violated this rule by making your "tl;dr" longer than your preceding text.(tl;dr: Technically, I could play barefoot just fine. But I prefer not to.

tl;dr:
Your tl;dr is tl. dr.
PS: I said wimp just to poke some fun. The pads that I play on are kept fairly clean. I don't have to worry about random gum or pieces of wrappers or gravel or whatever. My feet will darken from the dust after a few hours, but I don't consider it a problem.

I did that on purpose. I know how tl;dr works. I just wanted to see if anyone would catch it
And I actually don't really care about being called a wimp, seeing as I've been called much worse things.

Well, I clean the myself before I play. Only once I had to argue for like 20 minutes with the guy in the arcades that it won't damage the machine. After 20 minutes of me trying to explain that nothing will happen to him he just left and left me there with the pump machine. I think it was the first time that machine actually saw something like windex. it would need more than just cleaning the panels though...
not really sure if in other arcades people would get offended or something. but I do this on regular basis. I don't want to kill myself...
