Because honestly this gak make me wanna hand in my nerd card. I mean if the OP played wow or any other MMO when he joins a raid does he make the rest of the players sit thru a 15 minute dictation of the backstory he has created for his character?

Dont get why these sorts of players are playing wargames seems roleplaying games is really what you should be playing.

Nice language and good to see such tolerance towards one's fellow nerds.
Implying that a fellow Dakka member hasn't bathed because he has written a back story is not cricket old chap!

You appear to be in need of learning a few social skills yourself.

Perfectly fine not liking fluff but just cos it floats someone else's boat doesn't really mean that you have to fire off a broadside and try and sink it.

Surely someone with an assertive character and brmming with self confidence could politely ask the perpetrator of such heinous acts of fluffspeil to start the game?

Yes I always enjoy the chance to tell a fluff bunny to just shut up and play and I am polite about it 99% of the time. And for the record I love GWs IP I just dont need some bloke to tell the life story of every single one of his models. And what you call bad language I call as passion for the subject

I am a respectful person and love to joke around. but I am no pushover. and I believe I show that in my simple body language. this may sound funny but I always stand proud/broad with my head high. on top of speaking loud with more of an authority tone. and honestly that's normally how I am. I find I get a lot more respect this way because I am not a jerk with this attitude but fair and joking. but I will stand my ground to anyone who makes comments my way.

I believe you need to strengthen yourself in how you handle these things and how to prevent them from happening.

I do that, but the fact that I open carry a Smith&Wesson probably doesnt hurt either.

Anyways, I think if that guy was being a dick about it, yo should settle it like a true 40k player. With a game.

He said his friend's Eldar killed all your IG? Okay. Fight your IG against his Eldar. 1000p vs 1000p. If you win, the IG survived. If he wins, the Eldar wiped them out. Makes sense to you?

Yeah but I think the way the described what happened to my army after the battle just made me feel really bad because it kind of destroyed the long back story I written about my army and made me feel as if I don't know my own story(basically its like this; the I was playing against his IG army and an Eldar Army, 1500 each with my 1000 point IG, and my beginner friend's 2000 pt grey knights where the IG army split from the Imperium and went with the Eldar to destroy a relic while the grey knights wanted to retrieve it and we lost so I made up a story where my Army faked their deaths in order to get away from the grey knights execution of witnesses but no, they had to insert THEIR version of the story where they and the other IG army and the Eldar hunted down ALL of my troops and grey knights and killed them and the other IG guy reports back and says everyone was killed by accident and he wins everything and they both ganged up on)

Honestly, both stories sound pretty ridiculous. There's no excuse for his rudeness in this scenario if he berated you during the course of the game, but your whole army "faked" their death? Come on.

**MikZor**

Yeah can't say i've ever seen any one hate on anothers fluff (except for skyboard riding scouts....long story), but i think even fluff wise eldar could tell if they were really dead, take the loss like a champ, you don't need to make up a backstory to prove a victory. Still can't see the harm in it, there was no reason for him to hate on it.

**purplefood**

Skyboard riding scouts just sounds awesome... and nice to say actually.
Not fluffy obviously but if you modeled it, it would rock!
