not that I care, just an observation.

its argueable that all toy companies are in direct competition with TMP, hell its even argueable that any hobby that takes money from a consumers pocket is cometition for TMP, but i think there are a handful of campanies that are biting right out of their pie. those are their main concern obviously.

i have no problem with the cometition, and i have no problem with the rules they inforce.

well, ok...i have a little problem with the 'no e-sodomy' rule.

though what I meant was this was happening prior to this announcement. and like I said, it doesn't really matter to me either way. if something is of interest to me, I'll find out one way or another.

I also agree with ya aboot the e-sodomy, too.

Just a friendly bump to force the locked custom contest threads off the front page, so they aren't cluttering up the board for the morning people. [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's ridiculous if you ask me....showing new pics of other figures doesn't hurt McFarlanes sales.....lack of imagination and lack of purchasing good licenses is the problem....what should you talk about over there if TMP is doing nothing that excites you?

I can see the part about not using their bandwidth for other company products.

What really got under my skin was when Jon said the part about lurkers bitching about what was being posted. Even if a few people are having a childish argument, at least they're posting.

As for what to talk about when there's nothing new....

uh...

old McF stuff you like?

They need to crack down harder over there, like to the point where they resemble the Third Reich.

if there is nothing from TMP that excites you, you should be looking for someplace that DOES have something that excites you.

why is it TMP's responability to provide you with netspace to talk about whatever you want?
