ok i know there alot of gamers out there tha hate GW, but this took the cake today,
I was at a local gaming store today buy my new eldar codex, and this guy came in, he a local gamer and known for having a mouth, the place is loaded with people some buying GW and some buying warmachine, (i play both)
Well this guy I call him (D), went off on GW basiclly bashing everything GW made, taking about how expensive it is compare to warmachine,
" Cant we all just get along" both games are good, both have there good points and bad points,
and lesson learn when in a gaming store dont shoot your mouth off or you could lose someone interested in gaming forever
anyone else see stuff like this?

It's a free country he can piss on whatever lawn he wants. It's not like he went into a gw store saying it sucked and is overpriced. I love warhammer but I play warmachine also so it really doesn't matter

I wasn't saying I disagree - I play multiple games myself.
Just saying the general gaming population seems to love the 'us vs them' mentality.

It is also possible that GW has done something recently that hit his temper trigger.
Right now GW is ticking a lot of folks off - and it is the folks that most like GW's stuff, or who used to like GW's stuff, that are likely to get a wee bit testy.
*EDIT* Yes, I can say that I am one of those folks - Mordheim is one of my favorite games of all time.

The reason I bought rules and became a real wargamer was because I wanted a properly thought out structure to govern the action instead of just making things up as I went along.

Yeah its going places, just nowhere new or interesting.
The guy was bashing products that were being sold at that store even if it wasnt a GW store. The manager should either have a discreet talk with him or tell to gtfo.
