Where shall people who enjoy the hobby of wargaming go to discuss the hobby? |

And Bill's a Mormon – really?!?!?! |
Ambush Alley Games | 27 Sep 2011 11:02 a.m. PST |
I'm not an expert or anything, but from observing some of the Mormon guys I've worked with in the past, I think it's okay for Mormons to like boobies, too. ;) Shawn. |
Angel Barracks | 27 Sep 2011 11:02 a.m. PST |
Maybe we can find "The Boobies Page" and start a board there
LOL. |
20thmaine  | 27 Sep 2011 11:05 a.m. PST |
Sharks ! Where ? I'd be safe if I was a Robin. Yes, I like Robins, the gardener's friend. Actually they are sneaky little devils, pretend they are friendly, but they are just waiting for you to turn over the soil and expose a worm for them. |

New Sock Puppet for Tony not dog housed yet ? The Editor (may he live forever) must be slipping. |
SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER | 27 Sep 2011 11:42 a.m. PST |
Come on in the water's fine. It's a whale shark, and they're vegetarians! |
Who asked this joker | 27 Sep 2011 11:43 a.m. PST |
And Bill's a Mormon – really?!?!?! Mormons like boobies too! |
Tacitus | 27 Sep 2011 12:41 p.m. PST |
It was going to jump the shark, but no one has finished painting the shark miniature yet. |
CmdrKiley | 27 Sep 2011 1:13 p.m. PST |
"When I tell my henchmen to jump, they say 'which shark?'" |
Striker | 27 Sep 2011 1:18 p.m. PST |
As long as it's not a landshark, those guys give me the chills. YouTube link |
Beowulf  | 27 Sep 2011 1:26 p.m. PST |
If you find TMP so unpleasant, why come here at all? |
Condottiere | 27 Sep 2011 1:44 p.m. PST |
We found it pleasant, that's why we are complaining about the addition of silly nonsense. Garbage. |
quidveritas | 27 Sep 2011 1:54 p.m. PST |
I'm really thinking about leaving over this. Don't show me any birds to justify this B.S. We all know what this is about. If there were no women on TMP you might be able to justify this. As is, this subject lies somewhere between offensive and highly annoying. Those of you that support this board would NEVER talk like you do here in mixed company. If she didn't knock your block off, her husband would. But secure behind the annoymity of the internet, here we go. This subject has nothing to do with wargaming and nothing to do with miniatures. It does demonstrate that there are a significant number of morons that frequent TMP which includes the editor. Go ahead Bill, dog house me forever. That was intended to be personal -- very personal. mjc |
Manflesh | 27 Sep 2011 2:03 p.m. PST |
Mjc- who here is supporting this board, exactly? I'm wondering who suggested this. I mean, if it was entitled "Needs more tentacles", then we'd have a fair idea. Leigh |
streetline | 27 Sep 2011 2:33 p.m. PST |
To be fair to Bill, he's doing a good job of picking the three hobby news stories per day. Some of them are quite interesting. |
the trojan bunny | 27 Sep 2011 2:44 p.m. PST |
Maybe we should have a Needs More Penis board to even things out. |
Caesar | 27 Sep 2011 2:55 p.m. PST |
I just wonder how quidveritas would react to some actual offensive language. |
tberry7403 | 27 Sep 2011 2:59 p.m. PST |
If he went to Frothers he would probably have a heart attack. |
20thmaine  | 27 Sep 2011 3:46 p.m. PST |

That could be coverd as part of a Zardoz board. |
Old Bear | 27 Sep 2011 3:57 p.m. PST |
I just wonder how quidveritas would react to some actual offensive language. It's not the language – it's the sentiment. Quidveritas is right. No way would anybody here speak in mixed company like this. It's infantile and embarrassing. |
20thmaine  | 27 Sep 2011 4:15 p.m. PST |
We all know that board suggestions from polls don't have to be implemented. And yet here it is. We could all be very grown up and just ignore it. But with 3,000 regular TMPers that's not going to happen. A little humour may help to point out that this is without any doubt THE DUMBEST NEW BOARD EVER. If not, just resort to more shouting. |
Striker | 27 Sep 2011 6:20 p.m. PST |
But secure behind the annoymity of the internet, here we go. That pretty much sums up 95% of the activity on the internet. |
Wolfprophet | 27 Sep 2011 6:48 p.m. PST |
A poll got it here. Why not have a poll to remove it? |
SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER | 27 Sep 2011 7:00 p.m. PST |
A little humour may help to point out that this is without any doubt THE DUMBEST NEW BOARD EVER. Only till I get my Amish Rake fighting board
|
Editor in Chief Bill  | 27 Sep 2011 7:04 p.m. PST |
Why not have a poll to remove it? If the board doesn't get used, it will be removed in time. |
Wolfprophet | 27 Sep 2011 7:30 p.m. PST |
We both know it'll get used excessively and mostly for complaining of it's existence. Poll to remove it would be faster. |
Inari7  | 27 Sep 2011 9:33 p.m. PST |
Well I like to play with toy soldiers. I like to play with boobies. Why not have a board? Those birds are so cute to feed and play with :)
|
Wolfprophet | 28 Sep 2011 3:31 a.m. PST |
"Well I like to play with toy soldiers. I like to play with boobies. Why not have a board?" I love to do both those things as well, and in fact doing one has gotten me to the other. (A rather high stakes game once. The prize was a date, which led to several more and a few happy endings. *Ahem*) Anyways! I'm of the camp that does not like to mix these two on this website. My reasoning is that this is not a hobby simply for older gentlemen, or those at least of age, but for all genders, ages, races, religions, etc etc. If we were all of the same mind, the same likes and dislikes, then we'd never have any fun arguments on here! I just find the fact this board made it here to show the utter lack of maturity present in many of the members here. I knew that anonymity gives adults the ability to act like middle schoolers, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea to behave that way. |
Boromirandkermit | 28 Sep 2011 6:24 a.m. PST |
What on earth is going on that a board like this is on a website about miniatures? Sigh. |
Marc the plastics fan | 28 Sep 2011 12:42 p.m. PST |
Wow – do some people get excited real easily. I quite like the idea |
Battle Miniatures Emporium | 28 Sep 2011 4:11 p.m. PST |
"But secure behind the annoymity of the internet, here we go." "That pretty much sums up 95% of the activity on the internet." Yup. Which is why I stay off more than I used too. |
Coyotepunc and Hatshepsuut | 28 Sep 2011 5:58 p.m. PST |
In the interest of fairness and diversity of opinions, I've discussed this with four woman gamers I game with occasionally
all four found this board to be funny, and two thought it would be useful. None of them found it offensive. They are all RPGers (including one LARPer,) though, not mini gamers, so that may invalidate their opinions. |
evilleMonkeigh | 28 Sep 2011 6:04 p.m. PST |
What a lot of fuss over nothing. Any kid clicking on this thread would find a bunch of old people complaining and whinging anyway, thus giving him a true and accurate depiction of TMP, and putting him off ever googling the word "boobies" ever again! If there were actual photos of "boobies" then I think it should be moved elsewhere/members only for sure. Otherwise, a storm in a tea cup. ------------------------------------- "But secure behind the annoymity of the internet, here we go." "That pretty much sums up 95% of the activity on the internet." Hey, isn't BME they same guy who posted threads about his own female minis etc. This is the sort of hypocrisy I'm talking about

Yes, that's the fellow. One of the worst sculptors I have had the misfortune to come across, and with a sexual maturity to match. |
Bangorstu | 29 Sep 2011 8:50 a.m. PST |
Still people, be careful how hard you complain
Someone changed their username to 'Not a Happy Bunny' and got their account locked. It seems the amount of dissention tolerated around here is getting lower. |
Old Bear | 29 Sep 2011 4:46 p.m. PST |
There's a certain Russian Roulette vibe though, don't you think? It's almost intriguing to see what you can get whacked for these days. |
Rogzombie  | 02 Oct 2011 3:05 p.m. PST |
I think this board was created to spark heated discussion and controversy. Boards that are completely peaceful do not thrive. However there are limits to what depths of flaming can be tolerated. I am happy to see that some actual historical and philosophical discussion has come from this board. It shows me that despite our differences that most of us here do have brains and can use them above the level of a common troll. |
John Treadaway | 03 Oct 2011 6:44 a.m. PST |
I think this board was created to spark heated discussion and controversy. So it's kinf of trolling? Troll boobies is a nauseating idea. But then I'm not keen on this board either. Sadly, Lowest Common Denominator Internet is the price we pay for (some) freedom of expression. This is the first and last time I will comment, though :) Meanwhile, back to toy soldiers

Would that all members announced their protest with such restraint, John T. No name calling just an honest opinion. |

LOL Adults playing with toy soldiers (sorry, 'simulating events of Military History') cannot be but very
fresh and young in their minds. Accept the consequences! |
Coyotepunc and Hatshepsuut | 22 Oct 2011 3:31 p.m. PST |
@John T.: Reaper makes a nice topless troll chick with exposed boobies and a little troll baby clinging to her back |
Psyckosama | 07 Dec 2011 6:38 a.m. PST |
This discussion is pathetic. Sure the forum's name is a bit silly but the simple fact is there are A) scantly clad minis out there B) people buy them C) people want to discuss them on a forum about *GASP!* MINIATURES and finally D) By having a forum dedicated to scantly clad minis people can discuss their figures and link to pictures and the like without making people uncomfortable on the other forums! SO
