Response to ***Removal of MARP categories and other MARPer notifications***

Actually, QT, (and I an not directing this to you to start a flame or anything) I can absolutely see a positive value for the "casino" games currently emulated by mame. Granted while Golden Star might not be the most skill challenging program out there, many of the "classics" would be lost if not for emulation. Question, when was the last time anyone saw a Golden Star machine, or CSkill? Also about the "Funspot" style ticket games, a.k.a. Super Lotto, etc. AND I am very sorry, but if you are scratching "casino" style games because there are a particular type, then Poker Ladies would also go. It is nothing but a glorified video poker machine with nudie. Are you to say while casino is bad, if it has something you really like, aka nudies, then it can stay? We haven't blanked old Sega games, (Carnival, etc.) just because they can't be played/recorded on the current edition of mame anymore, why scratch these? All know I don't have a high in any of these, (ok, Super Lotto, because I watched and learned), but if today we arbitrary remove "casino" style games from MARP, what is next? American Football games? Soccer style games? Fight style games? Puzzle games? Pac-Man clones? It can be endless from here.
