Damn it.

 

That would have been a LOT funnier if I'd started it out "Luigi,"

 

Drat.

 

 

I forgive you Mario.

 

But...I'm not Italian.

 

You have to go with "Klaus" or "Winston" or....shoot, what's a stereotypical Portuguese name...?

 

hm

 

But that's ok...I've had a passion for Italians as long as I can remember...and I do mean passion.... :cloud9:

After my confrontation with Restoman yesterday I came to a conclusion. I don't need the krap in my life. I love comics, but see what my future is going to be by looking at some of my mentors who have all but left the hobby or collecting. As much as I loved my time with the NOD, and the seriously high hopes I had for the CBCA when the handful of us created it. I know I have to move on. I don't have the interest in the debates, I don't feel like carrying this weight and anger anymore.

 

I know how to find shills in auctions, I know who to deal with and not deal with. I know which guys are honest and worth giving my very hard earned money. So after the pressing wars, the NOD thread, the shill or no shill threads I say eff it. I want to do nothing other than enjoy this hobby, and need to do it without losing myself in the BS. So I know what to do.

 

I will no longer bash Metro, I may rib them every once in awhile.

I will no longer bash WorldWide Comics. I would however love an explanation as to why they never formally responded to the shill threads.

 

And I will let up on Matt Nelson. He likely did not directly know what was going on, and there is no reason to make this personal. If he did actually do the shilling, then I just look like an a-hole. But I doubt he was.

 

So that is it. I start a clean slate. Except the obvious Schmell, Robojojo, Rocknrollcomics 007.

 

So that is it. I am starting over, and wish to go back to just enjoying the hobby again.

 

Pat-

 

 

Pat,

You are one of my favorite people. Life is short and family takes precedence. Negative energy is exhausting, so I am with you. Picking your battles and finding the funny in everything will help you get past the debbie downers in the hobby.

 

Save your energy, pick your battles and try to enjoy you kids when they are young.

 

Best,

Chris

 

Chris,

 

YOU are one of MY favorite people.

 

And I have like 4 of them on this board.

 

So...there's that.

 

Love,

RMA

 

 

 

That's a very nice thing to say. I really do appreciate it.

 

I have to say you are the only person I know that's been able to change my mind when I was positive that it was set. So I make sure to read every post you make. It's as close as I get to learning something on this fakakta board.

 

hugs and sugar kisses....

 

Mario.

If it helps, Fingh was desperately pining for you a month or two ago....

 

And then in Feb, too...

Maybe that's the same one. Time's definitely dilated for me lately.

 

Guess who now has ammunition of the handies sort to hold over Red? :o

 

Many thanks, Rocky. :whee:

That's because I'm a thousand points of WIN.

 

A shining WIN on a hill.

 

The only thing you have to fear is WIN itself.

 

Ask NOT what your WIN can do for you...ask what you can do for WIN.

 

To be prepared for WIN is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace.

 

The price of freedom is eternal WIN.

Did you miss Pat's caveat??

 

Although we are trying to be positive and see the good in the forum and forumites...there's a pretty important exception.

 

We reserve the right to write posts sufficiently powerful to rain down enough negative energy to shift the polarity of the planet on anyone who's signed up in the last year and believes they've achieved appropriate station to raise their head out of their newbrific hole and judge people who aren't still mystified by the "flashing envelope" and remember Red Hook.

 

Carry on. (thumbs u
