**H.B.M.C.**

We can't talk about 40K in it. We can't talk about painting in it. We can't talk about tactics in it. We can't talk about tournaments in it. We can't talk about news in it.

Is this now just my own personal forum to rag on Jervis? If so, fine, I can live with that - but I don't think everyone else will. What is a 'general' forum when you keep adding more and more specific forums? Diluted nonsense, that's what it is.

And why is the forum for those despicable tournament gamers above this forum? Explain that to me.

The Dakka Casual Gamer Mafia is not pleased.

**H.B.M.C.**

Or, better yet, should 'Schedule A Game" be within the Tournament Gamer forum... or 'Tournament Wargamer Asylum Territory" as I'll be calling it from now on.

**Drk_Oblitr8r**

We could have a "Schedule a Tournie" forum.

We have a topic for it though. However, it's in "Find a Game". Seems out of place now...

**Crimson Devil**

H.B.M.C.

Your banana needs a commissar hat.

**ArbitorIan**

And the tournament forum is ABOVE everything else?

I'm outraged. OUTRAGED.

**H.B.M.C.**

We need to stop the Tournament Wargamer Asylum Territory from becoming the focal point of this grand casual society!!!

**Drk_Oblitr8r**

Or... We could infiltrate and corrupt from within.

**Manchu**

tournament gamers will use this thread as evidence that there is little forum-worthwhile content to casual gaming

The purpose of this forum is to let people complain that this forum has no purpose.

More or less...

Sounds like a plan!

Actually, isn't this the general discussion area, but NOT those topics which have been rightly banished to the Off Topic Forum?

**Vindicator#9**

'Ave yoo theeeen my badeball?

**Gitkikka**

I think H.B.M.C. is worried about the possibility of a Forum Gap.

**Frazzled**

Mr. President, wecannot allow a F-O-R-U-M GAP!

I agree. And love it when a plan comes together.

So where's the chicks? Total sausagefest in here.

We need a solo gaming forum.

You're right. It does tend to get out of hand.

**Kanluwen**

I missed quoting it as "Playing With Yourself" by half a damned second.

HALF A DAMNED SECOND, I TELL YOU!

But also, *rimshot*

Rim what now?

**Kanluwen**

You're a dirty malcontent and I hope you get hugged by a bombzombie.

**Mannahnin**

Anything that's about tabletop wargaming and doesn't fit into one of the other categories.

So if we wanted to make a thread about TFG, it goes here?

Just wonderin'. Generally curious as to what this forum will be. Discussing the companies producing the models? The general playerbase, etc?

**Brother SRM**

I always figured this was a general gaming discussion part of the forum, but whatevs.

**warpcrafter**

#1: Threads about how much it sucks to drop your precious toy soldiers on the floor.
#2: Threads about how much GW stores SUCK!!!
#3: Threads about how to explain to your significant other how bad your plasticrack addiction is.

Basically, it's the forum that allows us to probe the dirty underbelly of wargaming. So H.B.M.C. can just suck it up and wallow in the filth with the rest of us!
