You’ve got a really nasty attitude for a brand new member. Nobody here owes you anything, and no one wants to mail you blu-rays even if you’re too busy to burn them yourself. Please either figure things out for yourself, be patient, or go away.

There are so many example of new members being thoughtful, grateful, creative, patient, or understanding. And (especially recently) an insane amount of examples of current or older members being nice (nicer than required by a long shot) and hooking people up with invites and such. Hell, a myspleen invite thread was just reopened despite that being pretty much declared a horrible idea by myspleen itself. There’s no shortage of kindness going on on OT, certainly. And that’s not even to mention the people who actually matter here, the ones that actually make these things.

Throwing a hissy fit because no one wants to burn and mail you physical copies is well outside the realm of any of the aforementioned kindness.

Hi, I appreciate you belittling me. Of course I have a “nasty” attitude. Of course I’m throwing a “hissy fit” because I want my kids to see Star Wars in it’s proper form…And I’m getting deployed soon. I’m in the Navy and I have to be in a submarine between 6 to 8 months at a time. I never hardly get to see my kids and wife. My god, I already have three people messaging me about making me some…and NO, they are not being sarcastic about it. Lol. Please don’t think you’re the “one” that’s gonna teach me a “lesson” by being the morality police. I’ve run into way worse people than folks like you that have no life. Also, I just found out a buddy of mine has an account on here and has been making them for years. Ok, then.

Dear everyone, I apologize for my rude behavior. I’ve been stressed out. I’m sorry that I offended/hurt anyone on here. I’ll keep my emotions in check. I have obtained the New Hope despecialized Star Wars edition through Harmy and other folks have kindly offered to make the 5th and 6th. My wife is going to work on it after my deployment tomorrow. Sorry I was mean. If you nice people can find it in your hearts to forgive me, please forgive me. Sorry, again.

Sorry as well. I could’ve obviously been slightly nicer about it. No worries. I think you’ll find that everyone is here to help others, even if that’s not always to the degree that some would like (though, as you say based on your PMs, some people do on very rare occasions mail discs when they have extras) so it can just be a bit frustrating to see the good folks here met with demands or hostility. And those of us with “no lives” of course are the ones editing and creating these things, often with the very little free time we have.
