Syr, great post! It makes me wonder how your seremons are. I don't think there is anything creepier than a fanboy scorned.

HEY! Wanna quit being smacked quit Hoe?n for G-dub-?

Dear Mr Faux "Street Thug"

It is Ho not Hoe. Unless you are Gangsta Amish getting pissed at the man for not letting you use a tractor when you are out hoeing your fields so your frumpy wife can make gritty fudge to sell to unsuspecting tourist. Dakka has a very low tolerence for idiocy so I suggest you drop the Vanilla Ice persona and post in English since you obviously cannot get ebonics down.

whats an otaku it sounds like something from anime which I dispise.....Anyway I am terribly sorry about my post. I guess I was blinded by my anger and I actually don't all those miniature company's are bad as a matter of fact I like some of them I just like my white dwarf and dont want it to get killed

The off-topic part of my post:

I think the FooLs that buy G.W. products. Then turn around later and complain are equivalent to prostitutes complaining about their hard life and their PimP being too mean. HEY! Wanna quit being smacked quit Hoe?n for G-dub-? Quit being pimped for plastic little toys. Huh 50 buck for 5 plastic marines sounds cool? (Pimped) you gotta death wing army you?re being pimped. You gotta 200+ foot troop I.G. army?you guessed it ...PimPed! I see all you whiners as just that: Hoes tired of being pimp. So listen?dry your tears, cover that black eye with make up and move on GirL. It?s a tough stroll but you can make it if you shake it. Your being pimp (only if you cry about it).

Are you aware of some of the social implications of prostitution. Prostitutes, as a rule of thumb, are desperate. Some are kidnapped and forced into it under threat to themselves or others they know and love, or would be anbandones with no means of support whatsoever. I believe there are an estimated 15,000 Eastern Europeans in the UK who have been trafficked into the UK under false pretence and forced into the trade. You're unsympatheitc view is naive and disgusting, and evidently formed by misinformation, or a total lack thereof. Don't be proud of this post.

The on topic part:
WD has gone downhill nastily. This months UK issue featured one 40k article, a scenari, in which the featured forces were the contents of two battle forces (or the expensive version, rather). The layout of the articles is poor, the editing staff are evidently going more for style than substance. The tacticas of the past few months have been uninformative, simply stating that something is good at what it's designed for, and going into no tactical detail. I'm pretty certain that this'll be my last issue.

something tells gangsta g money over here is american and not very aware of whats going on in the UK and I am American too but I am aware of that

**Anung Un Rama**

what did he just say? I really didn't get it. and I thought people who are American, well....should know the language better than me, who learned it in school and from movies.

on topic, I was highly dissapointed with the Dwarfs in let's say...the last year. the LotR part got bigger, but only included "tactics" and stuff, not even terrain workshops or something like that. the most interesting parts for in a White Dwarf habe always been two things. the Inomine Imperatoris pages with experimental rules and eratas. and 2nd, designer notes about new Army Books/Codexes (whatever the english plural form of Codex is), where the writers said, why they changed what in an army, and not like the part about the new Tau 'dex for example: "the Tau have a new Alien race called Vespid. they have big guns. and wings. buy them"

btw. how's my english. would you like to share your thoughts on my writings? I'm always trying to improve my english skills

”Did you actually read the original post?”
Yes
“Or any of the others that followed?”
And again yes

“Quite obviously not.”
Obviously you jump to conclusions and must be the cry baby I speak of

“Had you read any of the posts in this thread (or the other), you'd see that most people have stopped buying GW's overpriced crap for some time now.”
Then why are you here complaining about their products.

“Seems instead you saw "Death to the White Dwarf" and were blinded by nerd rage as you flipped your lid and then spent the next 45 minutes gnashing your teeth and battering away at your poor keyboard to spewing two posts filled with very the same screeching you supposedly decry. If this stuff bothers you so much, why waste nearly an hours time pitching a fit about it?”
a. not a fan boy.
b. Not blinded by rage of games workshop, by cretins and simpletons like you who come here and complain about G.W.
c. Took me about 5 min to write the first and …7 to write the second. Not hours or even close to an hour. To post during my breeze night at work.
d. What bothers me is nerdy smart mouth cry baby who get pimped and cry about it. your the problem…what do you think this tread will get done. Nothing.
e. I bet you never get laid and I find that funny.
f. http://www.myspace.com/5deadly
go head and post yourself so we can see what kinda of nerd sissy coward your really are.
h. I bet you won’t. big mouth none of you...

“I'm pretty certain that this'll be my last issue.”
Good stop crying (SEE MY POINT YET)
I didn’t personally attack any of you just the behavior of the habitual GW purchaser/complainer if you responded you must be the above and if you “quit buying GW products” so long ago why are you here CRYing…get real and no I’m not a fanboy and wouldn’t knash my teeth for any GW issue. I just had to post on such a silly topic…but please Flame on Jonny torch you cute silly little gamer guys flame on. and with Posts:2680 you don't spend much time away from the ol' computer do you. Really guys before it goes to far I'm speaking on behavior and then used a modern urban metaphor. I learned my lesson and just really don?t add to games workshops profits. I?m the reason that chart you laugh at are dropping ?like everydayye? and I really stick to my guns. Still have G.W. as a hobby but I?ve bought so many models over the years I don?t need buy anymore. Tons of plastic marines. No offense but what does this thread even have to do with rumors or news. My stance in neither pro nor con G.W. but that of: ?PLEASE STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE PRICE OR PROBLEMS WITH G.W. SO MUCH!!!!PRETTY PLEASE IT JUST CLOG S THE RUMOR FORUMS FOR NO REASON AT ALL!? that?s all I?m trying to say?happy gaming and go find a rumor or post tactics or painting of new models or use that slur-ist, verbal mind to do fan fiction but enough is enough. Say word.

Yes it gets nothing done, but you are part of it.

That was wildly unnecessary, probably false, and a prime example of a blatant insult. As soon as someone mentions someone doesn't get laid, they go on a list of people who might be legally slowed.

The number of posts of a person does not mean that he or she spends time only on a computer. You see, there is this thing that I like to call "time." It is a natural process where everything is constantly in motion, and can be very confusing if you ponder too long about what time is, which I have just made myself do.

I'm going to go philosophize now. That means I'm going to go love wisdom, and think deep thoughts.

You see, children, this man is a prime example of why you should go to college.

Anung Un Rama, your english is much better than the majority of this nation's.

5deadly, I looked at your "my space," and I wondered why you exist. It's people like you that give Americans a bad name.

The atrophying of english is so much that I embarrassingly have to use improper grammar just so people can understand what I am saying.

**fellblade**

Why on earth would you expect anyone on this forum to use, understand, or care about Ebonics? This is DakkaDakka, where we discuss wargames, mostly Games Workshop games, not PimP Werld Sukka. Or to put it in other words:

MAX KELLERMAN, ESPN RADIO HOST: Keep it on the humble, you're caked up, I'm rolling on dubs. But the hood's all about haze and red cops (ph), Tucker. What did I just say?

CARLSON: You know what you just said to me? Don't hire me, ever.

And as GW is culturally British, you properly should be using Chav slang to show your irony. You horrible little sket.

**Smoke3**

5deadly,

Im not usually one to flame but my god man! How can someone accuse someone else of spending to much time on the computer then write a downright goofy rant about how you love GW stuff but never buy it anymore, which proves everyone else's point by the way, and take the time to make a very glossy ( I will admit that) but very GOOFY myspace page. I honestly hope that is not you, because a picture of a big greasy punk with a cigarette holding some hapless women in a head lock is no way to make a first impression on people.

off topic I know...but I had to take the opportunity.

ON TOPIC: I will not buy WD anymore. It is useless and glossy and about as entertaining as the 5deadly myspace page.

**fellblade**

There are two working definitions of time that won't cause your brain to ache. Of course, neither is particularly useful.
1: Duration between events.
2: What we measure with a clock.

@5deadly- you're right, I never get laid. I'm married.

@5deadly- you're right, I never get laid. I'm married. Your post reminds me of the belligerent drunk who barges into a conversation at a bar because he didn't like what he heard, even though the conversation has nothing to do with him. If you don't like to waste your time reading our whiny posts- don't. And go away.

**BatCommander**

To whom are you referring when you say "You horrible little sket."

I'm guessing 5deadly, but if you misinterpreted my post, I defending most people on this thread.

**fellblade**

You guessing correct. You slipped a post in before I could finish typing my reply.

He makes a valid point. This is neither news nor rumor. I would respect him more, I think, if he would spend less time 'keepin it real' and more time editing his post for spelling, grammar, and sequence.

**BatCommander**

I like that picture.

**Nuwisha**

I'm still confused how anyone was being racist in this post? I've seen plenty of illiterates posting.. but wasn't aware that counted as being a racist.

also:

Anung- It saddens me that your english is better than most Americans whose only language is English.

**Hellfury**

I feel thread lock coming soon. I feel it in my bones.

**Jester**

There should be a disclaimer in the beginning of this thread, Trigger is so full of venom he would give ebola-zaire to puppies, then write about it on his myspace page.

And he wouldn't misspell nothing.

**Ghaz**

I'm ready to start a petiton against petitions against White Dwarf in any way, shape or form

Hahahahahahha! Praise Bob Dobbs, for giving us that giant mass of stupid, something I'm quoting in full to save for posterity so in days, months, and even years on we can look back upon it for for being a shining example of the burtal mangling of the English language by a dim-witted cromagnum-esque mouthbreather incapable of higher thinking. As if the writting wasn't sufficient proof, you then provide sure evidence of your feeble mental capacities by giving us the adress to your utterly pathetic sterotypical gangsta thugga wannabe myspace page, on which we can see and laugh at you posturing and primping like the overinflated internet tough guy you are.

Since it is utterly inconcievable that you realize you posted a whole boat load of slow, I'm going to help you catch a clue if you can: Go back to school and get some reading comprehension skills. After all, reading is fundamental, and had you actually absorbed and processed the previous posts in your pea brain you would have realized a) we're not buying GW's crap products b) this thread is about venting our frustrations at GW and c) that we are fully aware this will not make GW change things (even in the thread praying for change we know it's not going to happen). However, I have grave doubts about your ability to grasp such concepts as they seem to require a higher order of thought than you are capable of. Enjoy!
