I would have loved to fight them, but I wouldn't risk getting kicked out of the arcade for something as useless as they are.
Sadly, it's my second home.
I was there 9 days straight once.
The manager there loves me and always gives me free tokens.
Although he's really creepy and hits on me.
Like petting my hair.
EVEN WHEN I'M SWEATY.
Crazy old men and their crack/cocaine..

And I totally agree with I/ayce.
The person is just a waste of space.
Not to mention the ditsy ones.
OMG DAT SONG IZ CUTE PLAY DAT 1 LOLOL.
And yeah, I don't want to see some chick wearing a strip of clothing, lollerskating her buttocks of while trying to play on beginner.
I don't know, it just sickens me.

Sooo. Just bc they take off their shoes shouldnt bother you.. unless their foot smells

I dont like it when they wipe their sweat on the bar or screen~

Where I Go, We not allowed food but people do it anyway. I do it too , Not scared to denied it...

I Hate people do shadow so annoying ... Espically doing it on the pad that no one using!!!!!!!

If your going to shadow dont do were someone is playing to see you...

Here is a tip : If they do shadow next to you, try to accidently tripped over him/her...

I did this alot of times before... LOL they learn their lesson...

I hate it (and yes, it has happened once)...

When you're playing a hard song (Colors Heavy) and all of a sudden you hear some kid in the background screaming out the arrows as you struggle to keep up - "LEFT! RIGHT! DOWN! DOUBLE! LEFT LEFT RIGHT!"

I wanted to kill him...

It doesn't bother me when someone screams that, unless they're standing where I can see them.
I can't have people standing next to me/in front of me while I play.
I always think that they're looking at me like I'm really weird or staring at my boobs, hahaa.

And you've seen someone wipe their sweat on the bar/screen?
Dude that's effing disgusting.

when a herd of like 8-12 eight-year old girls crowd around your pad and scream louder than the machine.

and also when kids fling rubberbands at you while your playing(it happend.but after the song i got them banned from the place for a year)

One thing that really got me a bit annoyed last week when I was playing was the way these kids were playing.

They looked like 8th grade catholic school kids. They were still in their school uniforms, but the way they played made it look like a game only for little girls it made me embrassed just to go near the machine. It was very funny though. They were playing on Beginner and Light and they were doing the typical return-to-center-after-every-step. Instead of stepping on the steps though, they would step on it with the tips of their toes, making it look like they were ballet dancers in a tu-tu. You know with the whole raise your foot high then hit it with the tip of your toes thing instead of just stepping on the arrow. Even my sister who doesn't really play DDR said to me "looks like goody-two-shoes players." I laughed.

I'm glad that not much little kids go to puttputt in my area. Well they do , but they are either outside riding a ride or upstairs having a birthday or playing games...

Yeah it's a girly game, but how many of the "omg like lol" girl do you see play it, then come back to play it again the next day or week or whatever?
They don't.
They just play it once because the songs are cute, realize it isn't as easy as it looks, and just stop playing.
There are only 2 chicks who are regulars are the arcade where I go to that are decent.
And one of them is me. =\
Although you do have a point on the J-Pop thing.
First time I played DDR I was 13.
I remember hearing a really poppy song and going OMG I WANNA PLAY THIS LOL.
I won't lie.. I still love those songs.
But when the chicks play on Light or Beginner and act like a-holes, then what the hell.
Like the ones who go I'M SO MUCH BETTER THAN U LOL then go up just for poopy and giggles to make fun of you, and totally fail.
Yeah, we have a lot of them around here.
The only people that really appreciate the game are people who play, and old people.
Other teenagers are just omgwtfbbqlol.
-deep breath-
And I'm done.

i hate it...i mean..really hate it, when there are people passing by that don't know the game, make fun of you and others who are around who do know whats up, by trying to mimic our movements on the pad.

thats irritating to no end.

and to up the ante, they get on the freeside of the pad and do the same thing...i hella almost went off on this moron at boomers in pleasanton? (not sure what city that is over there) oh...livermore. (remembered LCP, for those old schoolers) he got on the pad, and was making fun of me, i was trying to play paranoia rebirth, and well i fail the song, due to a misstep and final stage. so on the last step i stared a hole thru him, so bad the guy in the back setting up the popcorn felt it. and his boys were like, ooohhhh.

if you wanna shadow, great go ahead (unless i know you're one of those bar lovin' ITG expert players, then i have no respect for you) just don't try to touch me or get in my way of the screen.

i'd get into little kids who stomp on the pad and walk thru the area between the pad and the screen, but i'll get to that later...(since there's older groups who stomp alot as well)

What does loving the bar/ITG have to do with anything?

I hope this doesn't get to be another bar raping discussion.

My point was that in America, the game looks girly and "I Do I Do I Do" already makes the game look "faggoty" or for "little girls." But you're probably right...in Japan "I Do I Do I Do " probably appeals more to 20-year-old men than it does for teenage girls.

As for the putting words in your mouth, that part was directed at "Nerds Day Out" and the majority of the people that post in this thread in general...I realize that it was probably confusing now.

I guess your opinion can't be wrong...getting pissed off at people for trying a game for the first time isn't a wrong opinion...I guess it's just my opinion that only douchebags get angry at small children for trying new video games.

I would now like to put two of your quotes together for emphasis.
