Quoted from vid1900:You can make fun of someone because they got a bad tattoo, or married the same woman twice; but it's never cool to mock someone because of a handicap or medical condition.
Robin, do you wonder why most pinball companies have abandoned posting on Pinside???
Well Vid I didn’t know the man had a Medical condition, some people just wear sunglasses all the time even when thy are indoors.

Thinking about the above post from Vid a bit more, I felt that it deserved a follow up.
First to Vid, I want to start by saying your value/contribution to this site is huge! You have helped all of us at some point or another with your tutorials. I can honestly say that i think you have forgotten more about pinball than I will ever know!
As for pinball companies abandoning this site, I would say we have all had a part in that with some of our posts (you included VID) see your posts in the thread link below for an example.

As for me I think anyone who has know me for the 5 years I have been on this site knows that mocking people about their medical condition is not my style or intention (see link to medical thread below for my info) I made a comment about Steve's sunglasses which appear to be Oakley's and not prescription grade glasses, I in no way intended to mock Steves medical condition!

As for Steve and the topic of mocking peoples medical conditions it appears he beat us all to the punch as he mocked all of ours already.. (we have a disease and its called Pinside)
Pinball is supposed to be fun 
Quoted from vid1900:Steve has a great sense of humor for all his setbacks, whether losing his hearing, his finger, his......
Steve is a great guy and has designed some awesome games!! He is a huge asset to all of us who love this hobby as are you VID!
