I don't see why it should have been locked. It was helpful and much better than waiting for the official FAQ/Errata.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.

People came into his thread and started flaming Gwar because he made an FAQ, indepentant of what was actualy IN the FAQ. They then said the post was just going to turn into a flame warand the thread should be locked, then another post flaming Gwar, then the mod locked the thread instead of taking action against the people causing the disruptions.

I don't always agrea with Gwar's conclusions on how to play the game, but here I am completely.

tbh, the fact he comes across as so rude and arrogant puts me off. I'm sure your nice Gwar, but please lose the cockyness and the "vet coming through" attitude.

@Farmer: excellent way to demonstrate the correct use of an Ad Hominem attack for us.

The fact of the matter is that the Mod was wrong for disciplining the wrong poster/s.

Mate, spamming this 'tiny violin' thread will just give him more ammunition to slap the back of his hand to his forehead and cry out that he's being victimised, despite being a royal pain in the ass.

So just leave him be, far better to leave him in this thread stamping his feet and screaming like a five year old.

Leave him to it, centre of his own tiny universe where he's right all of the time and FAQs are rubbish unless he writes them.

Seriously, people shouldn't feel like they can get a thread locked by acting like a jerk. Those posters who are breaking the rules should get warnings/suspensions/bans, etc.

but MGS, ALL FAQ ARE RUBBISH!

I can't think of a SINGLE gw FAQ that doesnt completely suck. they all fail to answer any relevant questions, while "clarifying" things that are obvious to a slowed 5 year old.

the fact is, gwar is almost always right.... people who argue against this can go off and play in their little fantasy world, where the actual rules don't matter, just like GW wants... but without people who are trying to create standards for others to play the game by, 40k will become a set of annoying house rules across the country.

Now, be nice. The ones GW told Yakface to do were good. The ones GW did themselves suck harder than a Essex Girl

I should point out that I have it on high authority that Gwar is a Jew, and thus probably did WTC.

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

Not nearly so silly as you falling into hysterics over your FAQ gloatfest being locked down. I love that you were 'lying in wait' to hit the quote button btw, speaks volumes.

Ok fanboy.

Just because i don't take Gwar's opinions as god makes me "rule breaker" ?.

Or is it because you don't like hearing the truth,please proceed to make a fool out of yourself.
