Quoted from ryan1234:Kaneda is banned from Pinside. He was a huge troll on pinside, He was a real problem here.
Bringing up his name on pinside is in bad tastes ….
Kinda like bringing up your bowel movements at dinner… But for some reason, somebody wants to talk about a turd.
Like it or not, he's a well known podcaster and personality in the hobby. He frequently drops interesting rumors that are fun to talk about, many of which have been correct. Some people take this stuff way too seriously. Is he the "mad money" personality in pinball? IMO, yes. But the hobby as a whole moves very slow and having a character that stirs the pot isn't a bad thing. If he's been trouble here then keep him out. Also, don't listen if you don't like it. People need to lighten up and just take this stuff at face value and not take it personally.
