> What part of 'I contribute what I can' don't you understand.
Apparently the part where that entitles you to criticize other people for contributing what they can, albeit in a different form, when what they can contribute isn't always 100% in line with how you would have them contribute it.

"Yes I'm going to point out development that needs doing, yes I'm going to be disappointed when people don't because I care about seeing MAME developed, especially if it's relatively straightforward and seems like low-hanging fruit."

No, you don't get it. As usual you can't even comprehend how someone could have a gripe with you, and can't be bothered to try to comprehend why.
I'm being critical of you in this thread, particularly, because you're defensive (as rightly you should be) whenever people act like they have the right to whinge at you if you fail to work on exactly what they want you to, yet feel just as entitled to whinge that other people aren't spending money exactly how you want them to. Time being money, you're a hypocrite and don't even have the common courtesy to admit it.
The fact that you seem to think that this comes down to "Mog has money" really speaks to your pathological lack of introspection, because the fact of the matter is that I don't. The spare fun-funds that I had ran out a year ago. The only material contributions I've made have been thanks to numerous selfless, kind-hearted people from around the world chipping in to help preserve LCD games. The same people that you apparently despise because they're not putting their money towards what you seem to think they should. Put the rock down or at least get out of your glass house.
