pretty well. i got a squad of Spugs! yay spugs! they have provided quite a bit of painting impetus. and the AB is alot emptier without new stuff coming out of your corner. i only evfer go back there for Doghouse and his Sol Conspiracy now (which seems to have been back-burnered so he can get some Smurfs done for the Bash). why'd you leave anyways? mod action or what? |

Well I hope you can find plenty of reasons to hang out here Oz, I've been missing you and Benny! If you get a chance, send Ben a PM for me and tell him to sign up over here, he popped a note on my B29 site but I didn't know how I was going to contact him. I left mainly because it is a GW site, and a GW site for kids. I'm not knocking what they do or how they chose to spend their money, but for Christs sake, there's more to modeling painting terrain and gaming than GW's poor offerings, I mean how many versions of the rules do you need before you get it right!?!? ![]() As the site was getting more and more attention from GW staffers I didn't want to be associated with that company in any way (hence stepping down as mod, then the eventual leaving), I mean how would my many adoring fans handle the fact I associated with known GW fanboys ![]() Plus there was a little bit of bad blood between me and a couple of the mods that I just couldn't get over. Every time I saw their posts I got irritated and that just fouled the whole AB experience for me. Last straw was someone commenting on a topless model I'd painted, so I responded and worked my way around the language filter. I knew he meant no harm, he was just after a response, so I gave him a response, it just wasn't one that the mods allowed nor one he was expecting I'd wager. I was given a second chance, but I declined, I'd had enough of the site and I asked to be deleted Anyway, 'tis all in the past and I've not needed to look back (apart from missing a few members). |

That's pretty harsh, man.. Err.. the circumstances you left under, that is. Place I'm at right now.. not bad, but, the 'Good Ol' Boy' network is pretty heavy. But, that's aside the point. Nice ta' meetcha' thewizardofoz... wow. That's a bit of a mouthful. |

They weren't the greatest, but I brought it all on myself (save for the 99.9% GW content) and it was all my decisions and opinions that got me where I am today. Didn't turn out too badly I believe

Well, I can't really blame you on the GW bit.. I was barely into 40K for a year, before I started 'noticing' things. You know what I mean. Still, I think we've all found a nice little corner of the 'net. (And I'm quite pleased to be here!) |

lol, yeah, i'll have to copy over my sig from AB. it is nice and anti-GW. funny thing though, most of us probably started out as GW gamers/fanboys. i know i did. then i found SG2, and the slowly emerging flaws of 40k's system just busted wide open. i like many of GW's models, but i'm a gamer at heart, and would play with paper cut-outs if the rules were great. Dmitri- just call me 'oz'. Ozzy works too (its my nickname irl). 'thewizardofoz' is just an old username habit i cant break .Ross, which one is Benny again (freebooter, right?)? i dont know many people's names from AB, and i forgot most of the ones i did know after i totally beat down SC with the rules. kinda. it was that thing with his emo pics. i should have won that. the pic should have been deleted. i didnt really care... i just feel robbed of my win... the rules were on my side... stupid dog...

Indeed we do I never found the game "fun" tbh (unless it was a "house rules" infused one), and the models are far far too pricey/bad posed!

yeah, it only bugged me for a bit, my loss of a win. but hey, you really cant win vs him over there, it is like his own little club. i'll drop freebooter (benny) a PM and tell him you say hi (and provide a link over here). i'm glad everyone likes my sig. i found it on the same page as a GW basher, but my java is screwed up and i couldn't see it ![]() edit: found the GW basher again. have fun
