Where have my happy forum members gone to?

[MaulFan]

I signed on this afternoon hoping to find some upbeat conversation, and I find that as I slept, the war between the Rebellion and the Empire waged on, and all that was once fun and enjoyable is now lost to darkness, I can only hope that the spirit of collecting can endure these troubled times and return to the days of good, when board members were happy about collecting and sought others who shared their passion and joy to discuss the great items we purchase and to feel a sense of community and wipe away the isolation that the rational world leaves us passionate collectors feeling...

Nothing that is going on in the other threads means anything. We are just discussing what has happened to Fett. We don't have to be happy all the time- if we were than there would be nothing to discuss. You are right, a lot of people are not happy but it's a good thing that those people are letting Sideshow know. I think it's quite ironic that you are the one making this thread after your outburst in the Jabba thread. That was the angriest I have ever seen anyone on here. So let them be angry.

I have nothing against people being upset about products, it's the verbal wars that follow that I wish wouldn't happen, it's upsetting to read through a thread and see people going at each other, I'm just trying to promote civil discussion and that seems to only come when people enjoy a product, anything negative and it spawns into chaos and civility is thrown out.

I LOVE THE CHAOS, IT FEEDS ME! By the way I took one of your photoshoped pictures and changed something on it so that I could post it else where...are you angry?

Don't worry about Maul. Go to the Sandbox for now and let everyone vent out their anger for a week of two.

I've been collecting for a number of years now, and it never ceases to amaze me how riled up people can get over dolls and statues.

It's that way with everything. It happens on other forums I belong to(Corvette Forum, Home Theater Forum, AVS Forum, etc) so it's not just relegated to collectibles. People have opinions about whatever they're interests are and when those points of view clash with someone else's you see the end result........:emperor .

I get riled up when people call my 1/6th scaled collectible figures "dolls".
