There are a couple of guys who are joining the forums and then posting links to porn sites. 40k online has just had one.

We need these idiots banned ASAP.

are they here? If so where and who?

Duh.

Oh wait, you're not supposed to say "Duh" when it's you, huh?

yeah I saw one on a deathgaurd forum.

We are the perfect audience. Why it hasn't happened before now is the real question.

Why we aren't SPONSORED by porn is the real question.

why are we the perfect audience? dont say its cos we are all sad and lonely and perverts.

Not Malfred. He has to beat them off with a stick.

The women, I mean.

You didn't say what kind of stick.

No, I didn't.

Because we are all sad and lonely and perverts...

Seriously though, 40k and picking up women/men don't exactly go hand in hand, I didn't start playing again until I was married because it is the perfect hobby for married men.

I'm not sad or lonely. But I am a pervert.

"Honey, pick up your dolls!"

Hey, hold on a second....

 

They are not dolls but "Action Figures"!!!

Don't say you're not. I agree with happypants, this hobby is time consuming. At one point in my life I would sometimes stay in on a weekend to finish my models. Porn was my friend.

It interesting that the hobby uis almost ideal for a husband, but poor for a boyfriend.

Depends.  If you want your boyfriend to actually spend time with you, and go out to 'cool' places, then 40k is not a good hobby.  If you want to know where your boyfriend is (playing geek games with his friends in some musty basement or FLGS), then its great.

Likewise, if you want your husband to avoid strip clubs, ahem *gentleman's clubs*, and bars, then again, its great. 

I'm currently moving into the husband category, and hope that I can still find time to at least paint :|

yeah I hardly touched 40k when I was single or going out with somebody. If lucky in those days I would paint one mini a month. But now that I am married I can do an army in the same time. when your not married you would rather be out there with friend/girlfriend/or potential girlfriends, BUT when your married anything to avoid the missus talk about re-decorating or just general Nagging.

@cruentus  Yes you will have plenty of time to paint when your married, because if nothing else it will distract you from all the nagging you will be getting.

Also you enjoy being around family more at that point (hopefully), and painting/converting is a nice little side hobby to whilst the rugrats are fluttering about.

Nagging = evil.
Most probably a nescesary one.
No, I did not put that stuff away yet. Yes, I will do it before the end of time. No, you don't always need to remind me.
Fact: She does always need to remind me. That's why I got me a wife in the first place. So I don't forget things.

Edit: I <3 pron!

 

I did actually turn down a date once because I wanted to work on my minis.

Turned that stupid Skull Pass "grudge" cart into a more propely Dwarven, beer cart.

I regret nothing.

I did that too, Pnweerar, I - no, I can't lie. I've never had a date.

I mean, let's be honest though, was she hot?

He tells me via Skype that she was moderately attractive and I told him he had priority issues.

The things we do for our modelling....

Exalt.

She was obviouslt not that attractive, In fact she was a moose.

She was alright, I just preferred playing with my, um, toys.

beef why are you insulting me? Or not me but rather my kinfolk. If she is that ugly please use another term, like "Asthetically Unpleasing" or just "Ass Ugly"
