    Quoted from hbpinball:

    I think people who wear mask to play a pinball machine look really, really bad and dumb.

    And I think you're a stupid piece of shit that deserves to not make any money from pinball.

    Whatever happened to Pinballadict91? Maybe it’s that Eager Beaver that drives them. It is Halloween!

    Disney World is open, Disney Land is closed. Go figure.

    Interest is up, and the stock markets down...you’re gonna get mugged if you go downtown.

    People with a low IQ often resort to using curse words. We already saw the picture of the mask wearing pinball playing booger picker. Hit the flipper buttons, adjust your mask. Go to a different machine. Hit the flipper buttons, pick your nose. Repeat. And wear your mask for the pictures.

    Not to be too picky (not nose picky) but it's actually "you only get mugged if you go downtown"

    Now that song is stuck in my head "you can't starve us out and you can't make run..."

    I don't believe in curse words either, but I do think that you provided all the answers by yourself as to why your business and many others are failing.
    The President is not a doctor nor a scientist. It takes little efforts to see how countries like China who managed to contain the virus did it. Common sense, science and discipline from facts and evidence not fantaisies amidst a clear political agenda.

    We are failing because my government requires my customers to wear a mask if they want to play a game of pinball. Most people would rather not play than to have to look like a fool wearing a mask while playing a pinball machine. Stop waiting for a corna virus vaccine. They have been looking for a vaccine that works on a corona type virus for more than fifty years. They have no success. Stop making my customers wear a mask, whoever you are.

    News flash; you probably looked like a fool prior to having to wear a mask. You’re just in disguise now.

    I’m just wondering if masks are going to be mandatory during the flu season after this virus is conquered. It has been shown that we will wear these things when required. Slippery slope?

    Yeah, abductions off the street, nailing and welding people in their homes, secret cremations.

    Who are the chin diaper gods. The president of the usa has declared that their is no evidence that a mask can help anybody. I think people who wear mask to play a pinball machine look really, really bad and dumb.

    Are you trying to troll your own thread or what ?

    Masks reduce transmission about 50%. Not perfect, way better than zero on a population basis.

    Reducing the number of people indoors reduces infection risk even more.

    Adequate ventilation at an indoor facility to lower potential viral load reduces it even more and should be the main focus or indoor venues.

    China has controlled their infection rate because they took it seriously and took draconian measures that we would never tolerate here, but would have brought this under control much faster if we had.

    You want people to come back and play your games ? Provide them some assurance they are safe doing so. We did this: https://www.decadesarcade.com/disinfection-measures/

    People have come back because we took it seriously and professed some concern about keeping them safe inside.

    If you want to go spouting off conspiracy theories and how everyone who wears a mask is an idiot and people who follow science are making your economic life miserable and taking away your rights, theres already a thread for that. No need for new ones.

    This is totally a troll thread. Who's dupe account is this?

    What you need sir, is games on location that will make people actually want to drop some coin. Like a Rick And Morty or an OG Medieval Madness. The profits will then surely come rolling in like a landslide.
