You are one self righteous SOB. Clearly you're not a big enough man for an apology.
If CBG gets ripped, so be it; it's a lesson he learns. But you don't need to keep attacking him at every opportunity. You didn't believe him about anything and called him a troll. Now that his collection is legitimized, it just feels like puerile jealousy on your behalf.
What the hell would I be jealous of? His crowded ununified manic collection with no shelves? His atrocious english skills? His nasty plate of animal proteins? I'm a vegetarian man!
I wouldn't mind having the Greivous PF, but in all fairness, I already owned the exclusive at one point and sold it. So I must not have wanted it too badly. I do like to cycle through Sideshow pieces, and arrive at a very small collection of my favorites. My tastes change a lot.
Otherwise, I'm not jealous of his possessions in any way. Having them displayed that way would drive my OCD crazier than it already is.
Troll? Hell yeah, I'm a troll, and prod of it. But then so is cbg, and so are you, and so is 90% of this board. I was out for a reaction, and low and behold, it worked. You're name calling me, and while I can't discern jealously in my actions, I am definitely a troll. Honestly, I was just trying to help this cbg not get taken, for what seems like the third time! He's still within the window for a claim, and could help others not get scammed by reporting sellers who blatantly break eBay rules concerning preorders. And using a money order to pay! Even you have to admit that is the most dangerous thing to do with $800!
And cbg is definitely a troll. He roams around the entire board inciting heated arguments based around his infantile nonchalant attitude about the hobby in general, and getting scammed specifically. He even says, if ODE doesn't pull through on this droids set, he will sell every statue he has and drop the hobby. A hobby which he only picked up mere months ago.
I don't know very many characters like that around here. The people I have met and become friends with are hardcore and could not dump their collections on a whim. There is at least one piece in my collection which will go to the grave with me.
I'm not going to apologize, just because you try to bully me into doing so. I stand by my convictions. Truthfully, I was mostly attempting to help cbg by scaring him into protecting his money better. Probably not in the most tactful way. But that's just how furystorm operates.
And yes, I'm self righteous. I refer to myself in the third person.
But why did you have to bring my mom into it?
(Maybe I should report you?)
Then again, who isn't self righteous?
