It's one thing to say bad things about GW, it's another thing entirely to want the hobby itself and other hobbyists to suffer for the sake of your feelings. Don't pretend they're the same.
Not really.
I lack the power to make the hobby itself suffer. So I can't make that happen just from saying bad things.
And let's say I felt the opposite, that I really really wanted GW to succeed. If they were going under as a company, my good thoughts wouldn't keep the company afloat.
Whether I say it or not, the same thing's going to happen.
So there's no difference. Because me saying it, or not saying it, is not going to make a difference.
No but it makes people not want to interact with you. On a message board or otherwise. This post being the exception of course.

You do realise that if GW fails, you will lose your forgeworld, and your novels, the balance issues will never be fixed, and nobody will ever enter 40k again?
The hobby will slowly die, with no new models to buy outside of gouged eBay prices. Standardized rules will fail, as each enclave of players uses their own ruleset and FAQ due to GW not being able to update the game anymore.
It's fething disturbing that you seem to want for that to happen, and watch the stocks with lustful eyes, hoping for absolute destruction instead of hoping for change.
So, basically, like now, but for everyone?

Of course not.
I'd rather they just update my army properly.
But it is nice to fantasize about how people who played other armies would react if they didn't get any new models ever again.
Not well, as this thread is showing.
They literally are updating SOB next month.... so.....

I don't see a box of models labeled "Adepta Sororitas", but hopefully they're just... not showing it... for some unfathomable reason.

You understand that the desired update for Sisters of Battle is about models, not rules, right?

There's been a lot of rumors over the years that plastic Sisters of Battle are coming shortly. Then they don't show up. By now I just don't get excited for new rumors.

My partner still loves me and we've been together for almost 10 years. Maybe you should read some of my posts where I'm not talking about things I dislike if you want to see that I'm more than a complaining, whining jerk who says things you don't like. Instead of only reading things I say when I'm talking about things I don't like and using them to draw conclusions about me as a person.
This page is one of my bookmarks and has been for months:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/693677.page#8715963
I haven't followed through on the instructions yet because we spent over a year trying to sell our house and I still don't have a solid work area yet after we moved.

I know I said I wouldn't go back into this, but then I read the quoted post. This is unnecessarily dickish, and strays into the realm of personal attacks.

Yeah. We haven't made them for the past 3 years because it was costing us more to make them than the resulting pennies were worth.
The same is true of US pennies, you just haven't ditched them yet because your copper industry that supplies the copper for your pennies lobbies your government to keep them around.
