				<title>Go through your own history!  Quote yourself!</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I noticed that dakka archives absolutely everything you post.  So to get the ball rolling, what are some things you've posted in the past?  How have your views changed on them?<br /> <br /> Here, 2nd post ever:<br /> "<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(50);'>GW</span> does occasionally lower prices.  It doesn't get talked about much, but it does happen.  It's usually in some indirect form.  Like ravenwing bikes boxes.  Or new chaos terminators for $40, although those haven't been released yet."<br /> <br /> <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(84);'>Lol</span>, at the time in white dwarf the new chaos terminator plastics were advertised for $40.  Mostly because the metal termies at the time were $10.  Shows what I know.  But what I said is still mostly true...e.g. the chaos knights from fantasy.  Originally a $50 box or $10 a blister.  The new plastics are more detailed and a fraction of the price.  <br /> <br /> Post # 6:<br /> "Of course mismanagement of money and operations is key.  <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(50);'>GW</span> sells more models than other game companies but lost money. Obviously they're spending way too much."<br /> <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(84);'>Lol</span>, year 2007.  The funny thing is every time every year there's a new report I repeat myself.  At least they're starting to get it.<br /> <br /> On HBMC chaos codex review:<br /> "That had to be the most biased review I had ever seen.  In theory when someone does a review, they do it with an open mind and try to point out both good and bad.  This was nothing except specific negativity.  The first two paragraphs are nothing except insults."  <br /> <br /> What's funny is I now agree with him.  Complete reversal...<br /> <br /> 2008:<br /> "How about releasing rules for free for playtest? I love the idea, I love having codecies first put in white dwarf then revised later. It makes for a better game. It doesn't increase sales. That's the bottom line, and that's what the higher ups care about. We jokingly used to say, "THis is a place of serious miniature business." <br /> Thoughts on that haven't changed.  <br /> <br /> <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(84);'>Lol</span>, 2008 on how to use a land raider:<br /> "I start by using my land raider with my left hand. If the opponent is good enough to push me, well, I'm not left handed."<br /> <br /> On why guardsman are willing to shoot plasma:<br /> "It's actually really easy to get a guardsman to shoot a plasma gun. A carnifex shows up, they shoot their lasguns. Then you tell them, "Hey, wanta hurt that carnifex? This is an awesome gun powerful enough to do that!" <br /> <br /> Are powerfists in tactical squads worth it?:<br /> Okay, deadshane needs to make a list with lots of powerfists, then GBF should make a list with no power fists. They should swap lists, play each other, and try to prove their points right. Then deadshane can make a list and not swap, GBF can make a list and not swap, and they can try to prove to each other again. <br /> Grudge match: To fist or not to fist? That is the big question! <br /> Then I will prove them both wrong by taking assault squad sergeants with dual power weapons! Yeah! That's the ticket! Taking a setup more expensive than a powerfist and less effective, only a true man amongst men would try such a feat. <br /> <br /> I was so on the money about this:<br /> "Remember when they tried to do Apocalypse in Warhammer Fantasy? Let's see... <br /> they had a "special deal" of all Chaos Knights, mind you, the old more expensive metal ones. <br /> one with lots of Dark ELf Cold One Knights. ALso, mind you, the old more expensive metal ones. <br /> One with lots of Minotau...oh they haven't screwed those people yet"<br /> <br /> On playing Dark Angels:<br /> "Poor poor dark angels... "  <br /> Why do I play that army again?  Even I know they're bad.<br /> <br /> On how to use a chaos landraider.  My advice this time is much better:<br /> "It's okay to have a chaos landraider without a payload. <br /> In that case, it's a dedicated static tank. It's main job is to sit in the back and shoot. In kill point missions, it acts like a safe zone for injured squads if you do squad rotations. In objectives, you sit a small scoring unit inside and leave it on the objective."<br /> <br /> <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(84);'>Lol</span>, I'm still crazy.  ]]></description>
