52 Pachislo Machines Destroyed

[ol-pachiman]

Well, I was just informed by my sister in Louisiana that the State Police destroyed 52 Pachislo machines by rolling on them in a landfill. The news showed them being destroyed, a man was selling them after he changed the machines to accept quarters and they were considered a gambling device. What a waste because of a few fools trying to make the machines into something they where not intended to be.

This is horrific, an outrage, a travesty of justice, a crime against humanity!

Poor Pachi's!!!

[slotter]

That's just stupid. Oh, well -- just think, it might cut into the politicos gambling revenues. Better go after this with a vengeance and make sure there are plenty of TV cameras around!

Yeah right. Big deal.

Bottom line, though, this won't change, so keep 'em legal.

Where's the dump? I can get parts!

I don't understand why people just don't leave the machines alone? Why convert them to quarters to give these no good politicians a reason to ban them?

I set up at a Farmer's Market and sell the machines every Wednesday. Every single person that walks by and tries them, the first question is, "Can you convert them to quarters?" and the second, "Can I put an arm on them?". By the end of the day, I want to strangle them!!!

It's just the way it is. There is a "process" one goes through when first starting out with Pachis. Quarters, Arms, etc. Not going to change it, so might as well sit back and enjoy! You aren't going to change any newbie purchaser's mind by telling them this either.

If it was me, i would have ripped out the zip ties and said see they arent able to take quarters.

[luckydog]

when you have the police banging at your door you don't have time to rip out all the ties.

not that i've been raided!!!!!!

all mine take tokens or balls only!!!!!

For your own home use, I doubt anyone is going to care. When you start puttign them in public for playing or selling, then you're going to get some attention. If you're feeling lucky, go ahead and make the mod...

Utopia,
If you keep this up, your gonna have to start takin blood pressure meds. That way you have a chance to strangle them before their questions end up strangling you!!!!!!! Then, after a few weeks you will have to be put on some "happy" meds so ya don't lose your mind and :rocketwho :AR15firin

Sorry folks, had an immature kiddie moment with the smiley faces......

I just tell them that I won't convert them. Once they take it home it's their choice and can do what they wish. That way I am in the clear.
