    You would not beleive what I've just seen on another board fru1tchat.co.uk
    a bar worker asking for the bedazzled emptiers etc.

    He states that he speaks to the engineer, and that he shares the profits of the cash box with the landlord, in return for looking after machines. and that they want to make more than they do from this machine.

    People were actually replying with any info they knew!! can you beleive it?!?

    Guys, to save us all the hassle, and hard work of finding emptiers etc, in future maybe when we do find an emptier, we should just email the manu with it for crying out loud!!!!!!

    I replied to that thread, I don't really see what the problem was? When I read it someone mentioned 2 skill features for JP, and that was that, and maybe someone was rodding them, didn't get what he meant.

    My point was that the guy clearly stated that:

    1: He speaks to the engineer.

    2: He doesn't make much money off the machine because people keep doing it over.

    3: He wants to make more money from it.

    All these point to one thing - Getting the machine chipped.

    I Just think that anyone who's interest lies in what's in the cashbox rather than in their pockets should be treated with caution.

    Fray, wasn't making any accusations there, saw your post, fair play to ask what you did. I didn't get what he meant about barring?

    Chipped for a skill feature?

    I replied too (mikeyboy) don't see the problem.
    He shares profit - fair enough, sounds like he's just curious as to why this is "hit" more often than the others he has at the pub so i believe a few of us pointed the "feature" out. It wasn't an "emptier" or anything like that

    what stovie is saying is the more information you give him the more information the engineers will get and in the end it will get back to the manus for them to disable all the possible quick jp steals etc...

    So, for example I come here and say

    'Hi my names steve, I work for vivid and everytime I see one of the machines I wrote the program for, it says "IOU Call Manager" Is there a fault in my program? and can someone tell me what it is so I can fix it please, thanks.'

    so what you're saying is that it's fair play to discuss machines, (whether the points mentioned are true or bullsh*t) to people who want to make money from us players?

    If there was any truth on the cash side JP being free, you can bet your bottom dollar that the machines will be chipped and that's another chunk out of someone's weekly profit.

    It's already hard to find regular profitable machines, stay on side guys.

    Yes that is purely the reason for them, helping players learn about machines, swap ideas etc.

    Just keep an eye out for wolves in sheeps clothing, if you catch my drift.

    No worries guys

    Do you think the manus are not aware of this?

    They implemented the feature knowing full well it is capable of JP. This is no cheat, its simply part of the software.
