The loves I pretty much agree on.
On he hates I don't mind competitions and competition gamers though I would never do the first and know few of the second.
I'm in general agreement on the unpainted armies but a bit more patient, and as far as what I call the "Osprey Nazi's" well I do Imagi-Nations almost exclusively so what can you expect.
my Extreme dislikes (I shall not say hates, I save that for the ongoing conflicts) they are …
The guys who have spent a turn in the armed forces which they think makes them experts on all wars at all times and in all conditions and authorities on how the Wesh-Mesh fought against the Mesh-Wesh and should be accepted as such.
The guys who have never even worn a Boy Scout Uniform but gamed everything and studied everything, and have armies of everything and read about every period, and have a doctorate in everything who think that means they have the equivalent of 40 years combat service and a chest of medals. and know about REAL war from the sharp end of the stick. I'm NOT saying they impersonate soldiers. That's something else. The best way to put it was this. My father was a Colonel in the Austro-Hungarian Army in WWI. One time one of my war gaming friends was talking to him (lecturing him actually) on the Austrian Army in WWI. My father shut him down with in his heavily accented English "Vass You Dere Scharlie?"
The guy who publishes a set of rules or has a PhD who uses the club as an alpha site for his rules, and expects everyone to defer to him, vette and flatter his ego, and the whole club has to do what he wants to do no matter what everyone else wants to do, and the entourage or claquers and sycophants he drags along with him. He'll never show up when anyone else is doing anything, and if something else is scheduled he'll show up and just push them off the table and set up as if he was the featured event.
