Quoted from master_of_chaos:why not hire him:
JPoP is a very good designer with some interesting ideas and vision.
He actually has no job and needs some bucks, i guess. ( So maybe he can pay his dues sometimes )
Maybe Homepin can get access to the 3 other JPop projects , that are also called "fraud" ....
we´ll see.
He belongs in prison....not working (and making one dime) in the pinball industry.....that's why.
Quoted from markmon:This stance makes no sense. You're arguing what? Games from williams that you previously liked that he was lead designer now suck because JPOP couldnt get it together 20 years *later*?
What he did (literally stealing over a million dollars from pinheads) does indeed 'taint' what he has done in the past. He should be persona non grata in the pinball world going forward.
