Ah, I had forgotten about the Jar Jar tongue suckers. It is very unsettling to see children going around Frenching with a small likness of Jar Jar.

I looked on ebay for the retail Han in Stormtrooper uniform, and this is all I found.

http://i24.ebayimg.com/05/i/000/81/78/e259_1.JPG

So maybe he never was sold individually and this is what I was remembering. Anyway, as you can see his arm is straight, while the Fruitloops offer had a bent arm (so he could hold the helmet I think).

Oh, it is depressing reading the prices SW figures are selling for on ebay. I have bought a ton of POTF 2 figures and never opened them so I could resell them later. I even have almost all the old orange package steroid ones (think I am missing one or two). Oh yeah, and I have some of the rare variants, like Hoth Han with the open hand, who later reissued with a closed hand so he could hold his gun. I also have Boba Fett with the stripe on his glove. Now I don't think I will ever get ride of them, or even come close to breaking even.

From me:

"EDIT: Not trying to undo everything I just said, but give it a rest man. Get over it. Your devotion to this TB guy and his radio station is really unsettling. What you guys did WAS uncalled for. I don't think we need to prove that to anyone. But you come in here after hoards of reckless little trolls and you claim to be the voice of reason in this whole "misunderstanding". Just drop it. There is no need for a voice of reason. The fact that you guys are here is completely unreasonable to beging with. Like I said Aleks, if you would like to stick around, then welcome to the forum. But if the only reason you are going to stick around is to "open our eyes" then just drop it. Give it up. There is nothing left to talk about. These are all matters of opinion that you want to turn into matters of us not understanding your cause. We don't care."


From you:

"EDIT: I see. You edit your post, and claim not to try and undo everything you just said, but you do just that. Very smooth. From accusations of some sort of strange "devotion" to TB (I said I like his radio broadcasting...uh?) to you telling me that a voice of reason is not needed. (a voice of reason is *always* needed, my friend) I am afraid I am out of options. Your edit was unnecessary, and I am sorry that rather than leave it where it was, you had to continue."


You last post came up while I was writing mine, so the edit was to address the things you said. You were still trying to prove your case, and I was merely saying it was not nessicary and that you should drop it. By saying "your" devotuon, I ment it in the plural, meaning all of those who came here. The edit I made was saying that if your reason for staying is to push your point futher, then don't. And if you want to stay for fun and enjoy some other discussions, then drop all of this and we can forget it.

My final post was in regards to your condition of staying here and us getting along. I was saying there is no condition, you either stay or you don't.

Then I do hope you see that my "witty nonsense" was aimed at this retarded crusade, and don't hold it against me. The people who came in before you were deserving enough of it.

"but only if you are rational enough to diffrentiate, as I said, and not see things in black and white."

The above is quoted from you. Exactly, if you follow your own advice things will just be dandy. You are the one joining us, there are no "but only if"s. If you want to leave, then leave. If you want to stay, then you are more than welcome to. Just don't carry on this silly crusade any longer. If you want to talk about warcraft, this is the off topic section and the place to do so. You are welcome to start a fresh thread on the subject of warcraft, and I would suggest you do so. As soon as you stop posting in here it will start to drift off page were it can be forgotten.

"It wasn't criticism. It was blatant bashing, calling it the "saddest thing ever", and insulting. Plain and simple. Man up."

It wasn't blatant bashing, it was his opinion. If he registered at your site and posted it, I would tell you to crucify him. But the fact is that he posted it here. And my point was some critics criticism is pretty harsh and could be taken as "blatant bashing" by some people. There is nothing to man up to. As much as you want me to admit HotRod was wrong, I never will. Because he had every right to say exactly what he wanted. Yes, you have failed to get through to me, and to others here as well, because there is nothing to get through.

We all have a right to our own opinions. Man up.

Anyway, Alekseyev. I see you have made a few post in other thread. If you intend to stick around, then welcome to the forum. There is no reason you and I can't get along. You will never convince me that HotRod was in any way wrong with what he said. You shouldn't feel you have to convince me of this. What you guys did was pretty immature. But, on the bright side, perhaps we got a serious new member who will be an asset to the forum in the future. I hope so anyway.

Nanner, good to see your posts. I am unfortunately long winded in my posts, what you has said is the best abridgement of what I have been trying to say all along. This whole situation is retarded. TB never had any right to come here. And HotRod had every right to post what he posted. He may have apologized, but I never will for what I am about to say. You guys are the saddest things ever. Who would have though the title of this thread would have come to describe this situation so accurately. This is the internet, HR had the right to say whatever he want. TB NEVER had any right to bash HR fathering abilities. That is completely wrong and self rightous.

Now this whole thing has become a stupid game where you try to convince us WOW is awsome. We don't care. You guys can't go on crusades to every forum whos members criticize your hard work.

You guys, even Alekseyev in all his "reasonibility" have proving nothing with all, except the facrt that you guys can't bare criticism and have no concept of personal opinion and peoples rights to theirs.

You guys, even the great Lord Total Biscuit, acted badly. It is a fact. Face it. You say we all would've acted just as TB did if we had our hard work insulted, that is a bunch of crap! Plenty of writers have spend years writing a book, then had critics crap on it in the worst kind of way. Any writer you can think of has has his books pissed on. No writer goes on a crusade defending his work. This is not the normal way to behave in such a situation. It is a very immature way to behave in such a situation. TB needs to learn to take a little criticism.

I am not quite sure what to say about that. All I know is that what I said before about the only thing you guys are proving by coming over here and posting is that you are all a bunch of dicks rings truer than ever before. The fact that this radio station plays such a large role in your lives that a small amount of criticism cuts you this deep is really sad to me. You guys talk about "Lord Total Biscuit" coming to kick us in the face. This shows me that you guys don't have a very firm grip on reality. You guys actually have hero worship toward the guy who set this radio station up. I honestly didn't find anything wrong with your radio staion before, to each their own, but the more I hear from you guys, the more pathetic you all seem to me. Lighten up and relax. Go play some Warcraft and let others have their own opinions.

Many of you that keep registering here to flame us seem not to have read anything that has been posted, except perhaps HotRods first post. Just to give a quick recap so you might be able to see what has been going on here. We post an opinion about your radio station. We know nothing about it at all, HotRod was expose to two hours of it by the guy sitting next to him at work who was listening to it out loud. after hearing two hours of it he felt it was pretty lame. This was his opinion. I hope we are all in agreement that everybody has a right to their own opinion. If you don't then I am afraid you are in for some rough time in life. After he posts his opinion, you guys some how stumble across it, get all huffy about it and now endless hoards of you are registering and insulting our members. You guys are the ones in the wrong here, you are breaking our forum's rules by throwing out personal assults. We have never even touched your forum. None of us have registered for it or have even the slightest impluse to do so. Most of us have never even seen or heard of your website or even care about it.

You really had no business here to start with. What you are doing is as obsurd as Universial Studios going after Roger Ebert for giving a film two thumbs down.

We were not intending to dis anybody here. Just someone having had to listen to your station for a period of time, and posted his feelings about it.

I am not sure what you guys are playing at, or what you are trying to accomplish. I promise you, you're wasting your time here. You are not going to get HotRod to apologize, if this is your hope. I am not sure how many more of you are going to come here register for the sole purpose of threatening us or flaming us, but honestly sometimes enough is enought. There really is no debate here, so I am not exactly sure what you guys keep coming here for. Maybe it is time you guys give it up. Like I said, this thread is getting really redundant.

"yeah its your opinion hotshot but people have put alot of time and effort into the station, it is hard work (you guys have no idea what is needed) so that IS a personal insult just as it is to insult you as a father, that is why people are offended and when people are insulted they get defensive, it's a natural reaction."

It is his opinion. What the hell is wrong with that. He didn't go tauting you on your site, he gave a personal opinion to his friends on his community. Again, you made a radio station, you put your self out there. Look at all the effort it takes to make a movie, or to write a book. Now go over to amazon and read the user reviews of any book, movie, game or whatever. Notice there are positive and negative reviews. Those people put a lot of hard work in making that book, movie or game. And some people didn't like it. How dare they. Those reviews are peoples opinions. Those people have the right to their opinions. You do see responses from the authors or directors coming in and attacking the reviewer.

Also, if you can't see the difference between running a radio station and raising a kid, this proves how immature you really are. You know nothing about HotRod, and you really have no reason to come and piss on his personal life. That is really low. You can have an opinion on a work of art or entertainment, but you really have no right to piss on somebodies personal life when you know nothing of them.

Somebody mentioned that this is great publicity for your site, well I would say it is just labeling you guys as a bunch of dicks. I think any outsider would immediately see this.

I have never played any warcraft game in my life, probably it is the greatest even placed on this planet. I don't care. I also don't care if retired people play games, I have nothing wrong with this. I don't think any of us do. But you know what? If I were to go around saying "Warcraft sucks!" do you know what Blizzard (or whoever publishes it) is going to do to me? Nothing. Because they have a more realistic outlook on life. When HotRod put the words "saddest thing ever" on the title of this thread, I did not feel it was really the saddest thing ever, and I am sure HotRod didn't either, he was merely using overstatment. However, now I am seeing that you guys are pretty sad little people. People who see no difference between rasing a kid and running a radio station. How long do you think your station will be around for? Another two years maybe? Doubt it will last anywhere near ten. Because people just are not interested in playing the same game for that long. In the end what do you have? Some fond memories? Great. But you cannot compare that to a familiy by any means. It is very low coming here and railing personal attacks against the guy for stating his opinion among friends. I know I made a big personal attack against TB a post ago. This was just in response to his personal attacks on HotRod. I know nothing about the guy, he could be married for all I know. Somehow I doubt it, but he could be. Hopefully TB is big enough to just shake it off and move on. I just hope that in the future he learns to be a lot less sensitive about other peoples opinions of his work, and to be slower to launch extreme personal attacks against his critics. Judging on all of the post you guys have made, you are all really young. So hopefully you all learn something from this experience. I don't know how many more of you are going to sign up here, but honestly with every knew member that comes, you guys look all the more rediculous. Do you just want to give up your little jihad? It isn't too late to quit with your dignity intact (well, I guess it is too late, but it can only get worse from here).

I think it was original written this way, with Obi being sarcastic. The changling plot was added in because... well it was just added in. Hey, its the PT. (ever thought what cool things they could have done with a changling? It could have been a whole plot about a fugitive being on the lose. Could have had it take on the form of Obi-Wan or Anakin. I don't get the whole Duku hires Jango the best bounty hunter in the galaxy, who rather than proving his best bounty hunter in the galaxiness hires this changling, who has a little floating robot place some giant centipeds in Padme's bed. Why didn't the changling just make herself look like on of Padme's guards, or better yet, one of her handmaidens then kill her in her sleep.

I think all of Biscuit's pot shots at your fathering capibilities has a lot to do with jealousy. Biscuit probably feels bad because he cannot have children. Not because there is something physically wrong with him, but because he has never had any prospects for getting laid, a very important part of the whole fathering thing. Of course, he is a badass internet warrior champion of which we will never defeat if we are so foolish to continue our futile war against him (uh, so how exactly do we stop it? Not quite sure how we got into it in the first place), so maybe he has all sorts of nerd babes hanging off of his shoulders. In this case it is safe to say (and thank God for this) that it is in fact a problem with him manhood that prevents him from fathering his own children.

I am sorry we have not had more forum interaction in here, but I think everyone is in the same boat as Gaffer, they didn't see any interest in this thing so they never read it. It is a real kick though isn't it? You know, I wish we had an unbeatable internet warrior champion. Then we could all waste our lives invading other peoples communities and insult their members on personal levels. Wait, no... on second thought I don't want that. The real world is much more interesting. Never mind.

And now to address my fellow forum members: Are you guys as nervous as I am about this unbeatable forum warrior? Yeah I thought so. Oh well. "you can't beat TB in a forum war. Ever." This is my favorite quote. Ever. I am actually printing this whole thread off, and placing a copy of it in my safe deposit box. That way, even if the internet comes to a total end, and all our machines go awire, this thread will live on forever in a small fireproof little box. When I am a depressed old man and need something good and funny to read to cheer me up, this thread will be among the many things I turn to.

"If you don't like WoW, then don't listen, and don't bother anyone. No one wants to hear you whine about something, when it can be easily avoided by you just shutting up. Frankly, I think HotRod is the most childish person I've ever come across."


He he. You are the ones sending seemingly endless hoards of your members over to OUR community to attack some bloke for posting HIS OPINION. He didn't even post in your domain, he posted it in ours for his pals to read. You guys in some creepy way discovered his post and send men out to "take care of it". You guys are like the bloody nerd gestapo of the internet. Poor HotRod has been charged with thought crime for speaking out against the Nerd Party. From now on in my mind every time somebody says they are a WOW fan, I am going to automatically assume they are a total git (a total biscuit if you will) based on my own personal experience with WOW fans. You all have done your kind a great service mate.

"And lastly, you can't beat TB in a forum war. Ever." (because he has a kick as thesaurus)

"Kudos to you TB for getting all the extra promotion from this,

The Podcaster formerly known as Hotar."


Dude, you're a stitch. What is this forum war crap? Nobody is declaring a forum war here, you folks are coming in here and insulting us and claiming to be true badasses that we will never beat. You know all we would have to do to beat your "leader" would be for Jay to ban him. Case closed end of story. If you have not noticed I will remind you. You fellows are the one invading our site.

Kudos to TB for hosting a community of self proclaimed warriors who have nothing better to do but declair "forum wars" upon other site whose OPINIONS they don't aggree with.

"this is between HotRod and TB"

I have said it before I will say it again, HotRod has better things to do (like taking care of his kid, working to provide for his kid, spending quality father son time with his kid) than defend himself from an attack by some (very, very, very sensitive) guy who somehow tracked this site down and started violently insulting him for posting his OPINION on this guys radio station. HotRod probably hasn't even been back around here yet to see how his thread has progressed.

Personally, I find the humor of this situation overwhelming. I would have never imagined something like this to happen. HotRod didn't aim anything directly at you, he just found the whole thing amusing and though he would share it with some of his friends. You are the one who somehow found out about it and game in here guns blazing (oops, sorry. Battle axes swinging, right?)

I am not quite sure what you are trying to achieve here, perhaps you don't realize most of us are from countries which support freedom of speech and everyones right to their own opinions, apparently you are not, or don't realize that you shouldn't take others opinions so hard. Please stick around guys, we are loving this. But if you do stick around we would ask that you keep your nonsense confined to this thread. Also, the personal attacks insulting HotRod's fathering ability are pretty low. Let's try to keep matters above the belt shall we?

And otherguy, to address your last comment about this being between HotRod and Bisquick. I will contact HotRod and tell him to have his pistols ready at dawn. Make sure your man Biscuit knows that we do our dueling out in front of the saloon in this town.

Sorry this is becoming such a long post, but wouldn't you guys rather be spending your Saturday playing WOW or listening to the radio or something?

Alright, this is a new entertaining thread I just thought up. Pretty much what this is going to be is Gomer is going to post nonsense thoughts and ideas in here. We can argue with him or whatever because sometimes circular poinless threads can be really entertianing (to a point) as the Global Warming thread has proven.

So Gomer, as soon as you read this, you can go ahead and get started hosting your very own new thread. Remember, nothing is too outlandish for the Gor-Mer-Tonic Thread. Defend Hitler's right to rule the world, talk about how very foxy you think Hilary Clinton is, how very intelligent actor and actresses are in general and what a shame it is that more of them do not get involved in politics.

Holy crap! We are being invaded by the World of Warcraft radio station people!

How the hell did you people even find this place? This is pretty funny. I am wondering how many of you folks are going to raid this place and claim we are nerdier than you. HotRod just thought it was kind of dumb, so sue the poor guy. My comment about him having a son was to say that he is raising a kid, meaning he obviously spends his time on things more worthy than playing a video game all day and filling in the gaps between gaming sessions with listening to a radio station about it or posting all day about a sci-fi movie from the late 70s. I also mentioned that his 2000 posts came from being a member since 2003. He had well over three years of wasting probably less than ten minutes a day at this website. How many hours have you played Warcraft this week?

Whoa, HotRod, you offended this poor geek who thinks you are more of a geek than he is. I guess he hasn't looked around to see that we post very little about SW around here. And that you have been a member since 2003, a hell of a lot longer than World of Warcraft has been out. Or noticed the picture of your son, which proves you have your life dedicated to better things than this site.

I want to play that game very badly. Last Zelda game I played was Majora's Mask, since then it seems like they have been plopping out a new one every six months, but not having a GameCube or a Gameboy Advance, I have not paid any attention to them. This is the first one that has struck me as interesting, and it has done it to such a huge degree that I want to run out an buy a used GameCube and grab the GameCube version. Anybody know if there are anymore severe changes between the GC and the Wii versions other than the flipped map and the lack of Wiimote on the GC? I have noticed that the GC version seems harder to find and cost about ten dollars more.
