It just so happens that the pertinent part of the thread was saved:

I missed the original thread, but I have to say that this really isn't a lot different than a large majority of the posts I read on most collectible forums. People are always bashing Hasbro, or Gentle Giant, or whoever it is that makes the stuff they line up to buy.

As of 3pm today, there were over 12 Blackhole Stormtrooper threads going on (every single one filled with bitching about that thing). I reported a few of them and Phillip went through and took care of them, thank goodness.

I agree Matt's post was overly profane, but I think if it wouldn't have been reported, it would just be yet another post bashing Hasbro.  It's not that big of a deal over there, over here, at GH or anywhere I go.  We all bitch and complain about Hasbro from time to time.


It would seem Matt is back posting as of 2pm today....unless this vacation was imposed after that.

I think the brilliance of it's wording and the choice of slurs and thread titles were the point. ;)

And then a home-run of irony handed down to him by Dustin...  I suppose you had to have been one of his rampant beligerant posts to have seen the humor in it...  Colman's sides would hurt from laughing at the whole thing.

That's one of the things that had me laughing the most about it (aside from his standard social ineptitude) as well as other frequent and similar comments by others.  These guys endlessly bitch and moan about how Company X sucks, their product sucks, their distribution sucks, blah, blah, bitch, moan...then they line up to throw their cash at them.  I'll never understand it.  Misterkebuttpuppy's final comment was that Hasbro had just "lost 50% of his business."  Very good, dildo...I'm sure Hasbro would feel threatened knowing they'd still be getting your money (if they even read past the "**** you Hasbro" header).

It stands out because of the reputation of the author.

I don't know if anyone noticed but JD is getting credit on a RS collecting news headline.

Wasn't it a bad sci-fi series in the 70's?

Secondly, the abrasive, non constructive, foul language laced, accusational message you've plopped into our forums does nothing positive what so ever but fill my PM box with complaints.

Accusational?   ???

Rob, are those pictures of Matt in your recent avatars? And if so, how did you get them?
