One thing i see alot of people doing when they play pinball (which is totally not required at all) is really bad slapping of the flipper buttons/or just hard slapping of the pinball. After seeing this done by quite a few people when i visited Sydney last, it left me saying no wonder alot of sited machines have bad hand wear marks all around the flippers. A good thing about having machines sitting closely and side by side, is that slappers cant get a big swing for a big slap, leaving them to play normally.
Its also annoying because there is a constant amount of loud slapping which puts you off your game when playing nearby. The other annoying thing is people yelling loudly when playing a pinny, another pain. I like to hear the machines audio, not people yelling and slapping the shit out of your machine. I should put up a sign, "No slappers or yellers allowed".lol
There should be some sort of pinball finishing school for the masses.
Question -How do u nudge someone elses pinball machine, I say carefully and always ask first incase people dont like that etc. Respectful and gentle with someone elses machines. And u dont know what the tilt settings are like either, so best to always check first !
