In a time where all you really hear is bad talk about GW because they are trying to survive in this hard time like the rest of us I would simply like to say this.

Thank you GW.
Thank you for giving us this game to play.
Thank you for your continued updates and improved model ranges.
Thank you for helping us expand out creativity as we change and paint the models you provide.
Thank you for giving us an excuse to get out of the house and meet new people.
Thank you for giving us way to show off our strategy on the table as well as skills at modeling and painting.
Thank you for providing us not only a place to buy your models by play the games as well.
Thank you for giving us a way to forget about the real world and its problems for a few hours every now and then.
Thank you for giving us the freedom to make the game what we want it to be.
Thank you for giving us the variety and freedom to express our selves and unleash our minds.


You know we yell and cry some times when we don't get what we want, but at the end of the day, Thank you GW, for giving us this world to play in.

Yes we can!

hey would I get a coupon from GW if I posted this as well?
Yea you can bitch about them, but all in all I somewhat kindda agree with you...... a little bit

No, you are unworthy.

Fool! Now that you've thanked them they think they are done! GW will never produce anything again because there is a SINGULAR SATISFIED CUSTOMER! What have you done?!?!?!??!

Gotten Goodwin fired, maybe? You would deserve death for that.

you forgot to mention thanks for taking all my damn money!!!

Pffft!!!

Thanks for having excellent customer service, and sending me a completely new model just because a couple of things got screwed up on the spur.

If Goodwin got fired, I'd track him down to whatever company snatched him up and start mindlessly buying their stuff.

Then again, I've seen things that make me worship the man...

Thank you for your continued updates

...*snort*...BWA HA HA, ARE YOU FOR REAL?

Yeah, thank you so much GW for the continued updates! Except for those people playing Dark Eldar, DH/WH, Necrons, or Squats (!)...

Thank you for giving us an excuse to get out of the house and meet new people.

Really? You never leave the house to do anything but 40k?

I thought I was the only one who lived like that.

Thank you for giving us way to show off our strategy on the table

It's not so much "showing off our strategy" as it is "getting stupid lucky with dice", but I digress...

Thank you for providing us not only a place to buy your models by play the games as well.

Only until they drive every other independent retailer in the area out of business and then close up shop themselves, leaving you nowhere to play except a tiny basement at a friend's house.

Thank you for giving us a way to forget about the real world and its problems for a few hours every now and then.

Except when they jack up prices and blame those same real world problems you're trying to forget about.

Thank you for giving us the freedom to make the game what we want it to be.

Because we WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO THAT AT ALL unless GW gave us their expressed written "permission" to do so...

Maybe this is why people love Apocalypse so much, because they simply didn't think they COULD play big games until GW said "Yes you can!"

Thank you for giving us the variety and freedom to express our selves and unleash our minds.

Unless you're playing in a tournament, GW models only, please...and no conversions that use LotR models or bits from other manufacturers!

If Goodwin got fired

Don't even say it. Don't even!

Thank You For The Music, the Song I'm singing.

But seriously, GW does a pretty decent job really. If there were as awful as they're made out to be in all the various online forums (or is it fora?) then nobody would play any GW stuff. Not even Sapys Mareenz (HURR)

-looks around-

OK, who switched the Dakka and Warseer servers?!?

H.B.M.C.

According to GBF, he bought the Rites to Warseer.

It's why he was gone so long, he needed to get it just right.

Plus, lining up the sacrifices take a long time...

Hmm...

It is with an extreme... no... near-super-human level of restraint that I don't tear into the OP's list with snarky counter-points and sarcastic remarks.

Believe me folks, I hurt inside just knowing that I have so many things to say, but choose not to.

BYE

You know, perhaps the OP is part of "that" school of thought that demands the turning of the other cheek.

Like H.B.M.C hasn't said...there would be so much to say in counter to the above "statement".....but my guess is, while the OP is staring through those rose coloured glasses, all those concrete counterstatements will seem like the troubling song of a wounded bird, twittering away in the background......

That and it's not that unusual to meet someone with an opposing opinion, so to refute such things in a thread would be childish in the extreme, coming across as a desperate attempt to justify your own opinion to yourself.

Listen here, Mr. Self-Appointed Dakka Moral Guardian, don't give me that 'opposing opinion' nonsense. It's a crutch used by people unable to back up their assertions with proof.

Fact:
Everyone can have an opinion.

Fact:
Having an opinion doesn't make you right.

Fact:
Opinions can be wrong.

BYE

Well, I see your moniker JokerGod is well deserved.

hmmm.


I just want to say:

You're welcome. And thank YOU.

Thanks H.B.M.C., now I feel like having some Wendy's...

I'm a big fan of Threeconomics.

Wendy's best deal is Chili & Sour Cream & chive Baked Potato.

"Hmmm"....said me, scratching my virtual head and looking around with my virtual eyes....."where am I?"

Oh yes, a gaming forum....HELLLLOOOO, gaming forums are rife with opinion, usually upheld by the opinionated! What for, the wonders of the internet forum if not to impose ones own opinions on others?

You sir are mad, and indeed misguided! The OP states his opinion, and the rest state theirs.....its a basic concept, not dissimilar to conversation.....

Just in case you're wondering.....what you have posted is in fact....YOUR opinion. I bet you enjoyed the experience as well, you did, didn't you?

I hereby declare the battle for saying the word 'opinion' the most times in one post, has now begun!

opinion,opinion, opinion,opinion,opinion,opinion,opinion,opinion

a clear winner in my opinion.

Given that potatoes are practically FREE, 99c seems a lot for a few toppings...

And god, this is hilarious. Thank you Tzeentch for giving us H.B.M.C. and Orkeosaurus.

Personally I like In-N-Out, but this is more of a West Coast California thing so the rest of you are out of luck.

I've had In-N-Out.

INO isn't nearly as good as Steak-N-Shake (Midwest), and a clear step down from Five Guys Burger & Fries (was DC-area, now national).

INO is basically a triumph of Marketing over substance, from their so-called "secret menu". But the burger itself is nothing special.

And certainly, it's a clear step down from something like Fuddruckers.

But I tell you what, if you're in the LA area, you really ought to stop by one of the new Five Guys locations and give it a go.
