If he starts to post here I would give him a hard time for the old times.

I would do what seems to be his worst nightmare, and that's not giving him any attention at all.

Guys like him have a hand in using the controversy around their person to their advantage, that's why ignoring them is much more effective than giving them shit over something that happened years ago.

man it took me a few minutes to recall "dion" its been almost 10 years since i first started coming here, and even then, everyone hated NGF here.

I just get the creeps from his posts, i don't even know the guy enough to hate him or anything, but his condescending tone, like he's talking down at everyone when he finishes a sentence.... It's just got this slimy gross aura about it... Like the dude was a bully all through middle school, did lots of yeyo during high school in the bathrooms, partied hard during college and took advantage of too drunk women at clubs lurking around with a dewers on the rocks never sipping it, just for the statement. Gross. His picture doesn't help either.

I'm not hating on the guy, hell, I don't know him except for the stuff i hear around here. But what i hear aint good, and smells fishy on his part.

I'd like to know who "Chris" is he is referring to, i'm assuming the same chris that runs and owns this domain, and the neo-geo store, no? Did Chris have to buy from NHF if he wanted to sell american neo geo aes releases like Dion says, or is that bullshit? those forum posts are being manipulated by mods left and right

Chris Ray is his bum-buddy and was the co-owner of No Good Fuckwits.

The pic of him trashing an original SNK insert is worth more than thousand words...

Interesting. I was just talking to qube last week about the OCD nature of guys like Shir0 who would sign every post the same way. That's Dion too. Guy would write "Thank you, Dion" and then his signature would kick in and write the same thing. So it would say
"Thank you,
Dion
Thank you,
Dion"

And it was funny because he would do it all the time.

I hope he's not trying to make his way back into the community though. If anything, I hope business keeps him busy and away from here.

From ASSEMbler:
Neo people seem to take picky to extremes, like obsessively collecting new in box mvs cartridges exclusively.
Look, everyone knows what the disputed things about NGF are.

Please ask questions that haven't been asked already.

The insert thing is history. Any further comments about inserts will be removed.

Why is ASSEMbler bad mouthing the Neo Geo fans and censoring the thread? Notice he doesn't ask Dion anything even remotely controversial, either.

If you're going to have a forum, what's the point of censoring what people are saying, asking? Let the people ask the questions without the meddling/censoring. :hammer:

I was kinda nice to him over at the assembler thread cause I wanted to know what he was hated for over here. I thought it was about the destruction of the inserts and thats what I asked about ... after I mentioned about the inserts , other people also did and after that I went to sleep. Havent really checked it out today, will do in a bit

I always wondered where all the carts with those "corrected" inserts went, since i have never seen one apart from KoF 2000.
I remember buying a KoF 99 homecart from Chris years ago, but even this came without any alterations.

Maybe people have tossed all of them in the trash by now or these are super, ultra, uber rare today - only for Big Tymers. Who knows?

thank you,

Well, he did say they had the option of also getting the original insert. Maybe they shredded the NGF ones at home and kept the original.

Heh, I can't believe that after nearly 10 years NGF still draws the attention of the forums... Even if it is for the wrong reasons, Dion & NGF will go down as legends within the history of the Neo-Geo, which is, I guess what he wanted, despite so many wanting him to just disappear from the scene entirely.

Anyone: go and google "Dakis thief Neo Geo".

First link: http://www.neo-geo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=59447

My thread, from 2003. Clear theft of $150 because he wanted me to know that he could fuck me over. Clear deception in marking games he returned to me.

I've hung out with Dion in Vegas. I tried to be nice to him and to find whatever bits of truth may exist in his garrulous trash talking. I tried to understand him and give him every chance possible to come clean and just be honest. But all he did was stick to his script, just like an offshoot Evangelican Christian that wants to ignore any language in the bible inconvenient to their point of view.

I don't know why I even post this, perhaps just to remind people that it wasn't just the "NGF Bible" where Devil Gui and others pointed out the truths. It wasn't just the stickering and tampering of various people's carts. It wasn't just the orange MSX that he stuck Scott Wozniak with. It was flat out theft and lies.

All any of you have to do is go hang out with Dion in person. Don't name call or jump on the bandwagon just because of what other people say. Go and see him in person. Look in his eyes. That's all it takes to see what kind of person he really is.

Sincerely,

Mikhail

I'm still pushing for a King of Kong style documentary on the aspects of the Neo Geo community with NGF playing a vital role. It could be so... epic. For better or worse there is no community like the one right here. There are key players. There is a story. There is unending drama. There are plane tickets. The pot just stirs itself, I've never seen anything resembling it. EPIC I SAY. YAR.
