The day I got banned from Gameworks

Good point. At the very least I don't want my friends to be treated as poorly as I have been.

OMFG! That manager has got to be the biggest asshole of a manager I've EVER heard! What he did was completely cruel and definitely unusual. IT WAS DAMN RIGHT UNACCEPTABLE! You did not deserve to be banned from there. You should be PRAISED for all of the things you contributed for them. Okay so you weren't allowed to record the game, but at least you asked. And on top of that, he said it was okay and you STILL get yelled at! God this drives me seriously up the wall man. And you were being so nice and mature about the situation too. It wasn't like you were being an asshole about it unlike the manager. He was being extremely rude to you and that's not fair to you AT ALL! I swear man that is just awful and all you wanted to do was to play DDR and other games with your freinds just to have a good time. And now he ruined it for your friends too! YOU WEREN'T EVEN DOING ANYTHING WRONG! God this furiates me so freakin much!

And another thing: HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU CHEAT ON DDR? DDR takes skill! You can't cheat on skill! You have to earn it! God I would like to give that son of a bitch a piece of my mind.

*SIGH* Okay. I need to calm down. I'm just furious man. Just furious.

What the fuck is this shit.

I know I'll be boycotting this shit place and never plan to do that drive up from Indianapolis anymore. Please tell me Gameworks Seattle is pretty unrelated to that asshole manager since I still have plans to find employment up there after college.

go right to the top. if there's a national manager, email them and see what they think. tell them it's fine if they want to keep you banned, just tell them how much money you won't be spending on their machines and that you'll be buying your own machine for your friends to play for free or something.

tl;dr this shit's the norm and this shit's why arcades are dying. I mean, half of it anyway.

TBH, looks like your arcade manager has a grudge against you for whatever reason, I think to him you're just "one of those meddling kids" unless I'm completely missing the point.

---

I agree with Mercury, I can't help but think the manager was looking for an excuse to get rid of you. What he said concerning making gameplay videos further convinces me.

Thankfully the arcade I visit doesn't have that kind of problem.

---

The moment the unknown employee stamped you, you should have told him that you are not 21 and should have left the premises, instead of taking advantage of that error. That's your responsibility as a regular customer.

---

You sounded like Daria there... *looks at avatar* oh.

Well it kinda looks like people do.

Oh fucking hell it's like the Crusades all over again.

---

Wow, that is horrible. That manager also doesn't realize that he's taking away a good majority of sales revenue by banning you and shutting off the Technika machine. (learned from my business major in college) You did not deserve that either.

Also, how the heck can you cheat in DDR by watching AAA videos? I've seen many of your videos and I don't know how they could be used to cheat at all. Sure, they may help with timing, but that's not cheating either. That manager has a brain full of bad wiring.

Lol Chew posted twice and it was trolling, wtf ?

I'm posting with my phone so my english might be even worst than usually.

First of all, it really sucks. I would have been so pissed at them, the manager is really retarded.

Even if in France DDR is king of dying since a few years, i have good exemple of decent/good managment. I was about to post them but i might go off topic a little so i'll sum up like this :
Customers that brings you money and new customers, you will be NICE with them. Or better shoot you in the foot right now.
I also don't go back to place were the managers are acting BS with me, even if i went there for years.

Anyway, nothing that crappy happend to me so i can't know how you feel.
I hope you'll still having fun with this game and your friends cause' you're a very nice player imo (not only skillwise).

Don't worry Pan, I found another location to play DDR at (it has SuperNOVA 2... so, HELL YES). There is no other place to play Technika though. It was the only game making the old dead DDR community rise from the grave, which is the most saddening part about this ban and treatment of the players.

At the same time me and a couple other are trying to get Dave & Buster's to get a machine while I also personally talked to a new business owner opening up a small indoor theme park in my city. I haven't given him much in regards to the machine yet (since I am waiting for Technika 3 to be released), but I am definitely going to show him how much one machine can do for his business and I am positive at least one of these places will get a machine with enough support backing the purchase.

---

Ouch. D: Reminds me of what happened to me at a Cyberstation I went to.
Well, at least we know that managers don't know what they are talking about half of the time. They never look at the big picture. They only look at the situation through the proverbial looking glass.

---

Weird. My good friend was JUST telling me how terrible the Gameworks out there was. Now I have another reason not to go.

---

this is a true statement

We never would've guessed if you hadn't told us.

---

You know, Gamework/Gametime usually gives some free 30 credits and a free lunch once every 9 weeks if you are good in Elementary School.

I love Gameworks/Gametime

I do love a free lunch.

---

They give you an option between dinosaur nuggets w/ fries or a cheeseburgerlicious w/fries

I'd get the nuggets. I don't trust any food that has more syllables than my name has letters.
