Well... I TRIED to start a positive ToyFest post on the WHITE BOARD...

But MoaK had to (jokingly or not) take a shot....

i've tried my best to only reply to the positive ones...but i couldn't resist posting in the "What do you hate most about Toyfair".

My reply: All the bitching, moaning and wining that goes on after any news release.

I've never seen such a negative reaction to Toy Fest.

Boarders were literally telling McFarlane "fuck you" in so many threads, it was unbelievable.

Now, I'm not exactly happy about MM7, but a lot of the other stuff sounds promising, including Tortured Souls (WLN interested in TS? *GASP*).

People have said they're going to stop buying McF products because of three lame-ass Movie Maniac figures.

Everyday I go to the Spawn.com board, I'm reminded of why I like posting here so much.

I can't even bother any more-
But I've never liked kids to begin with, lol

(especially medicated ones) [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Don't reply...

there is no pleasing the pack of faggots that have infested that board.

i dont even waste my time on that board anymore....its just not worth it.

i really dont care. all i really need is a place to talk toys and insult short people, an i have a VERY good place to do it.

here!

In all honesty, I was disgruntled after seeing the MM lineup. Then I took some time to think and realize how many other great figures are coming out, PLUS Robocop that I've been awaiting for years! So I realized that it's not so bad.

Instead of hating, bashing, and ridiculing the MM... I took a more questionable approach. I wanted to know why those figures were chosen. It just confused me more than anything. The characters seem kind of plain, but oh well.

Robocop, Spawn Reborn and 26, and 12 inch Pred sound amazing to me. I can't wait to see pictures of everything!

There really is too much complaining on the Spawn.com board. It gets me how there are threads that are so negative, then the ones that completely kiss ass. From one extreme to the next.

The funny thing is.... I feel so FREE being over here, that it doesn't really bother me that there is so many sad, misguided people over there.

I guess my thread was an attemp to give some cash to some drunken bums....

... I wish I could do more, but you can't help those who don't want to be helped. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

&gt;Closes White Board Window.&lt;

Yup, well I buy toys from (almost) every company out there.
It's the toy company's job to impress me and then I give them some money.

McF's just the only company out there that I get almost everything by (no sports)~

Doku... the Movie Maniacs line has never been my favorite, so I guess that's one reason it doesn't burn my ass the way some people feel about it.

I see Robocop, Hicks, Leatherface, and three 12" figures as JUST WHAT HORROR FANS WANT.... and the others as directed towards a select group.

I think that since I know people who work at three different toy companies and that I hear all the HORROR STORIES about licensing and the people holding the licenses makes me look at a line like MM and wonder how you can get more than three licenses in there in the first place. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I really think the white boards should be shut down for "technical reasons" [img]wink.gif[/img] for at least a week after any major news release. Maybe even longer so the ungrateful bastards find something or someplace else to "play".

I agree with that-Most of the past Movie Maniacs, along with most of Todd's "Movie" lines are just filler for me.

Stuff like the Matrix and (most of) the Terminator stuff I wouldn't even pick up if it was made by another company-
but I'm having fun making my McF Museum-

There's a difference between sharing a negative opinion of something and blatant disrespect.

For too long, the Spawn board has been flooded by completely obnoxious, uninformed, childish, and mean-spirited people.

I just can't post there any more.

Every other thread is a fight, and I'm not going to waste my time arguing about toys with some sexually-frustrated 15 year-old dork who thinks he knows everything.

If the Spawn.com toy forum closed, I wouldn't be surprised... it's become more trouble than it's worth, and it's obvious that Jon can't handle the babysitti-- I mean, moderating alone.

I have to give props to Jon for really doing his best to get the board on track, on topic, and to boost relations with the fans by having the 20 Q&A's feature, official discussion threads, official polls, etc... too bad his efforts have been wasted on complete assholes.

that's what you get!

you should know better than that.

i liked eq's gif.

Yeah... back at the ol' hangout with my friends here. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

just dont know why people have to go there and act like jerks. Its a shame. we used to have so much fun there and now you take a chance on someone getting onto your case if you post.

There, I fixed it. [img]wink.gif[/img]

I think the majority of what you said was misunderstood, baimun. At least that "**** huggers" comment. Looked like you were putting down people who enjoy and collect their stuff.

MoaK gets a tad bit defensive on the subject for the same reason you've stated for your defense of McFarlane...his friends run the company. You've hung out with, talked to, and gotten goodies from Steve, and he's the same way with Tankman. So yeah, he's gonna take offense to it. Human nature, I guess. He's a tad bit overzealous sometimes, but that's just him. I talk to him more than just about anyone else on the board, so I probably have a different view of the mean little bastard than alot of you.

Anyway, that was the biggest problem in your thread...the misunderstanding. Personally, 3 figures I don't want out of dozens I do doesn't make a lick of difference to me. I don't think they're the best figures for the MM lineup, but I'm not losing any sleep over them. There's a company for movie figures, and there's a company for bad ass, original in-house figures. Everybody wins.

eh. I don't see the point in bitching about lines you don't like. I probably won't be getting any of the MM figures. But that doesn't bother me. I have TS3, s26, reborn, and monsters 3 to keep me more than happy, provided that the figures are as good as I hope they will be. If not, well, no problem. the money I don't spend on those figures will go towards my various other hobbies.

its scary over there now... this place is like a security blanket for when the bitching starts I run over here and hide under the scripts

I'm sure I wasted a few good hours today trying to educate the whiners even though I knew it was useless...

I just pisses me off that these idots can't see past the end of their own dicks and realize that a line doesn't suck or that McFarlane isn't listening to the fans just because they don't like some of the figs...

These children have no insight into the reasons behind what we're given... let alone the concept of how to make intelligent business decisions... and yet they think they know best.

I would personally like to bitch-slap some of those ignorant fuckers.

There.

I'm done.

I just avoid talking **** with moak and it keeps us getting along fine.

MOAK is just the typical kid who feels powerful behind the "safety" of a computer screen. I can almost guarantee you if any one of us met him in person, he'd probably just look at his shoes and mumble most of the time. Not saying he's the anti-christ or anything, I've personally never had a problem with him, and I don't consider him a bad guy. The only bad thing I can really say is that his pro-N3CA / anti-McF shit got old a REAL long time ago...he dug his own hole with that issue and he obviously has a bad rep because of it.

I think the real problem (aside from the dickheads who PURPOSEFULLY cause trouble on the white board) is how personally everyone takes everything. A lot of people tend to become advocates for the different toy companies, thus identified as "fanboys" because of it. There was a time a number of years ago when most folks considered me to be an "ass kisser" and "McF fanboy" because of my seemingly blind support of the company. But once people had the chance to see things first hand like I had, then the tune changed. So I try to keep that in mind when people like MOAK are labeled as "fanboys"...maybe he knows something about N3CA that we don't.

Ultimately, I find it best at this point to just not be involved in those kinds of discussions on the white board. That's why things work here...we can say what we want, and everyone respects everyone else even if we disagree. Fighting just isn't worth the energy....there are plenty of cool people over here to talk with [img]smile.gif[/img]

MOAK doesn't like fighting more than any of you. That is why he created his own board. Ask anyone that has been there, there are no fights and no bashing of any company.

It was the N3CA hugger comment that set him off. Just like derogatory McFarlane comments make set some of you off. Give the guy a break. He's a good kid. And he, like me, loves the movie figures the best. N3CA just happens to be making most of them wich is why he praises them more than McFarlane nowadays.

McFarlane and N3CA will make me go broke this year. [img]rolleyes.gif[/img]

my only problem with moak is it seems like every conversation i have with him turns negative.

that JasonVorheesMM dipshit is on my last nerve.

Bio... look at the dude's user name....

... probably sleeps on Friday the 13th bed sheets and wipes his ass with Halloween toilet paper. [img]wink.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Eh, that's really not as big a subject with him as most people make it out to be. He's just a huge, huge, HUGE Hellraiser fan, so anybody that makes those figures has his eternal love.

He's sort of like an annoying little brother, whenever he acts like a fool I just tell him to shut the fuck up and everything's cool. People just take things too personal.

nope, gotten into too many heated debates on that. I dont like the putting down McFarlane on their board CONSTANTLY while promoting some other company. Wont talk about it anymore with him. He cant do it without getting all annoying and cut-throat about it and I prefer to get along with him. therefore, I dont talk **** with him.

I still say people are looking too much into it, he's said alot of bad things about ****, and he's loved most McFarlane stuff that they've produced, but noone notices that, I guess. The bad is what they remember.

Hey, no one ever said that moak kid was the only idiot over there-
That board's just become stupid.....
can't lay the blame on one guy~

dude you dont need to defend him, I'm not making an attack. Some people I just prefer not to discuss somethings with and that just happens to be the case here. I get along with him, so I prefer it this way.

I gotcha. It's more of a broad statement, because he's the main target of alot of stuff.

Like I said when I leftthe white board, It was for good. Good for me that is! I have no urge to go back or to even see what they are bickering about now. I have only one care in the world the white board, I want pics of TS3, thats all. Not too much to ask.

you have to admit, he can rub folks the wrong way. Sometimes jokes and negativity can get worn thin. I think in the case of bashing Mcfarlane ALOT (most of the time), and praising **** on a McFarlane fansite just got old. Just seemed like nothing good to say. He got to where it was like he was going to take a shot at anything you said. Sometimes things can be taken too far.

I've noticed that he's much more positive about stuff and doesnt take shots at everyone on his board. He's like he should be. can joke around without taking it too far and just not as down right bitter as he seemed to be on the spawn board.

Hey, I'm on his board alot and on this one alot. I also go to the white board, but not quite as much. Its amazing how there can be more harmony with three boards than we had with one. the white is still having a hard time, but people just go there to vent I think. I really think we should all be respectfull of the white board and try and get her back to the great board she used to be.
