Just thought I'd mention it. I know the Birrers have seen some of what's going on.

Wow, I just read through some of their posts. That is some serious drama! I'm glad we don't do that here. 
I like the SCFF! 
Hey, are we official members yet? Are there any rules to that?

I'll have to say "wow" again now that I'm caught up on my lurking.
I'd post over there, but nobody would listen. Sounds like everyone just wants to be unhappy and act like victims.
But...ALL THAT...just over some action figures? Action figures? No offense, but I lose respect for anyone who gets their panties in a bunch over toys. I mean...TOYS...and these are grown people...biologically speaking.
Yeah, it almost sounded like there was a bit of a thing about principles there, but if they really wanted the toys that bad they woulda beat the guy to the punch. Or, taken the less frustrating route and just ordered a case of figures from entertainmentearth.com.
Besides, if anything, the guy would make $3-4...in extreme cases...$10 off a figure, but largely he'll get stuck with more product than he can't sell. How many of those gotta-have-'em figures do you have packed away that aren't worth anything anymore? The answer for most of us would be...a lot.
It sounded like the guy wasn't even a member of Mos Alba anymore, and yet everyone left becauuuussseeee...I'mmmmm...still not clear on that.
Really sorry to hear about all that, BH. 
Some people just want to have a basement full of toys they can't sell, and others just want pity because they don't have the motivation to stay up til midnight to get to X-Mart when they restock just to get their case fresh NRFB first printing re-print trooper #127 to stick in a box under their bed. *shrug*
Personally, wallpapering one's room in Snapple wrappers is a little more gratifying. You get your trophy to tack on the wall, a little nourishment, and you have the solid knowledge that your money really did end up going down the toilet.

And yes, Kaety, you're official members. Somewhere there's a thing that says if you come to a meeting or just post, that automatically makes you a member.
Unfortunately, we don't have a secret handshake or Members Only jackets...yet...

I agree w/Zoom (omg - did I just say that!?) But wow, lurked for a while this afternoon, that's crazy. I know we had people leave my group, then again, there was talk about harming one and his family, so we kinda drove him out/he felt 'unwelcomed' and he kinda also left on his own accord. He was a drama king and everyone saw right thru him and didn't give him the attention he wanted. But, leaving because some jurk wanted to scalp his toys? Dudes - just ignore him and maybe he'll realize that no one wants him. Just taking to him and creating all this drama is just adding fuel to the fire.

Thanks for the support, guys.
ZOOM - yeah, all this over some little bits of painted plastic. Almost makes one want to give up on the hobby if that's the crap you have to deal with. Sad, eh?
And yeah, they left over ... I'm still kinda in the dark, too. Because they wanted to control who has access to the forum? Because they wanted to be able to skirt by TFNs rules? I dunno.
I say they, because although I've "registered" at that site, I don't know how much I'll participate. Probably about the same as I do over at Phoenix's external forum. I've got too many forums to visit as it is, to have yet another login somewhere.
