We all talk shit about each other but not in a bad way, like JHotrod said its like a college dorm atmosphere.


There is only bad when you talk shit about each other. JHotrod is on top of the list of conspirators.

Giving personal opinions about a toy is not neccesarily bad but on this forum you get pissed on and stabbed for that. Everyone is so bloody serious about protecting the interest of other people or how the forum "should be" that they don't have an opinon of their own. They form groups and PM each other to increase the hate then work out how to corner these victims and slit their throats while the guards are not looking.

It's more like a f*cking prison here than a college dorm. Cesar decided it's better to leave. Good on him. He'll be back one day but at least he knows that collecting toys is more important than this forum and it's people.



Wow a personal attack on someone who is a friend of mine and was probably the coolest person to me when I joined, which wasn't that long ago.

Hmm...funny..I post opinions here all of the time about toys and I never get pissed on and stabbed for it. Hmmm..I wonder why that is.

Oh..that's right. I use the search feature and don't go after people I don't know.

i haven't been over here for very long, but I've made some awesome friends and have learned a lot about toys in the process. I really don't care all that much to be over here anymore if these are the types of people who are going to post about friends of ours.
I don't know Cesar personally, but losing just one person because of the bullshit is wrong, especially a mod who really cares about toys, and not about high school bullshit.

end of rant...ridiculous thread...everyone chill the fuck out.

hmmm...i read the boards every day.

so you're a victim eh? for someone who keeps saying that the message boards mean nothing to them, you certainly have kept this thread going.

you might generalize that people here have no lives and spend too much time on the forums, but a lot of us are friends and some are family, and for some of us it's a combination of both.

get beat down in a parking lot by five guys sometime dude...then come crying to me that you're a victim.

if you can't take some joking around once in a while, and occasionally have someone contest your opinion, then maybe skullbrain isn't the best place for you.

me, personally, I'll stick with my bros on here and avoid the drama.

dear diary,

there's this place where everyone involved needs a holiday. Can you put a thought in their head that they need to get away, meet a girl or a guy, go see a band play or just take some nice walks outside while it's nice out.

Make the realize life is too short to be blowing their stacks over toys and they're all adults and they should be beyond all of this.

thanks,
bryan

SKULLBRAIN HOLIDAY!!!

I cannot believe this is going on again. Everyone needs to focus their agression toward the positive aspects of toy collecting. I left the KR board because I no longer found most KR toys or opinions interesting. There are many knowledgeable and helpful people here. This board is a resource and should be treated as such. Differing opinions deserve respect, not derision.

thanks bryan, you're absolutely right.
i actually have met an amazing guy, which is why I'm not here as much these days, but I really take offense at people who just show up and act like they own the place and dis my friends.

i'm not responding to anyone on this thread anymore. The only reason I jumped in is because that guy dissed john. Plain and simple.
John has been an awesome friend to me, and many other people on this board. i don't like seeing decent people slandered for no reason at all.

it's about toys for me, not about drama.

i'll take my thoughts where they're appreciated from now on.

Sometimes this forum feels like a bizarro world where right is left and up is down.

That's not the Bizarro World, that's the Phantom Zone.

That's pretty much every comic from the 1940s. Even Donald Duck fought Hitler.

Lois and Lana look like the type of women that go to those bachelorette parties and get all freaky with the strippers.

Two Wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.

He said, "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all.
One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed,
arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride,
superiority, and ego.
The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:
"Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

As a Mick/Cherokee I totally dig that. Sounds like something my Grandfather used to tell me. Starve that evil bastard, but let him out to play on weekends! :D

So I can justify going to the buffet by saying that I'm eating for three?

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!!!

And people wonder why I never post anymore. This board used to be so fun and irreverent. People would fuck with each other and move on to the next topic seamlessly.

IT'S WORDS...ON A SCREEN.

Big fucking deal if somebody doesn't like you, or changes your post, or calls you an asshole, or whatever. I repeat:

IT'S WORDS...ON A SCREEN.

Why does everybody gotta cry when somebody's not nice? It's real easy to throw around words like "REAL FAN SHIT" or "DIE HARD", but then somebody calls somebody a nasty name, and it's drama fucking central.

Not to mention we're here to discuss toys. Not politics. Not religion. Toys.

Get over it everybody. Words on a screen... that's all it is.

Can we talk about toys again, please?
