What has happened to the main man? Have I missed something? Hardly any input recently. |
Brownbear | 23 Feb 2016 12:43 p.m. PST |
Nooo, don't disturb the silence! |

He's not been on TMP for 10 days. |

I certainly hope he is okay too. And for those who do not enjoy his posts, using the ignore feature is much more effective than publicly insulting him. |
Dye4minis | 23 Feb 2016 2:18 p.m. PST |
It's not an insult to ask for where one stands when they post something. He used to only post a split headline like "ISIS buys…." Then when clicked "…new supplies. Article here XXXXXXX." My first impressions is …"So? So what idea of yours you are trying to throw out for discussion? Where do YOU (as the poster) have as an opinion on this subject?" Tango has gotten much better in that respct. he has begun giving some idea as to why the post was worth sharing. For a while, his style was like a spear phishing attempt to gauge public opinion rather than link his posts to miniature gaming or some other specific coherent theme. Tango has informed me of many things that I might otherwise have missed in the hobby. But too often, just a few posts down, someone beat him to it! It's just plain lazy not to see if someone else has just posted the same info. I would not (and have not) Stiffled him. I did privately ask him to consider what I just posted here, and by golly, his posts have increased in quality, IMHO, because he now shares what HE feels about the topics he is posting! I now feel like communication has begun and I respect him more for it! So, Tango, looking for more of the above! Best Tom |
Dye4minis | 23 Feb 2016 2:19 p.m. PST |
…and again, maybe he and his family are on vacation?…… Here's hoping he is OK and maybe just catching up on reducing the unpainted lead pile! |
15th Hussar | 23 Feb 2016 2:46 p.m. PST |
I knew I was missing something. I hope he shows up soon as I miss Tango (and his postings). |
Texas Jack | 23 Feb 2016 2:53 p.m. PST |
You are right Tom, and your behavior, as usual, is on the up and up. |
Ceterman | 23 Feb 2016 3:07 p.m. PST |
Tom for the Win! Hope all is good Tango! |
nevinsrip | 23 Feb 2016 3:20 p.m. PST |
Didn't notice because I blocked him, but I hope that he is fine and in good health. |
jowady | 23 Feb 2016 3:24 p.m. PST |
I enjoy many of Tango's posts, he certainly has eclectic tastes. I hope that all is well with him. |

I once asked what I felt to be an innocent question about Tango and was booed down by the masses. Most comments were to the effect that he should be left alone. Hope the guy is OK. As others have said, I could stifle him but wont do that because he comes up with lots of stuff I never would have found. |
peterx | 23 Feb 2016 9:10 p.m. PST |
I hope he is OK too. I read some of Tango's posts and find many interesting. Something is missing here in TMP-land. |
TheGiantTribble | 24 Feb 2016 4:28 a.m. PST |
TMP with out him feels just plain wrong somehow. |
David Manley | 24 Feb 2016 8:57 a.m. PST |
I must admit I hadn't noticed the lack of posts from him recently. I did notice that there seemed to be a higher proportion of posts about wargamng however. |
dsfrank | 24 Feb 2016 12:36 p.m. PST |
I hope he returns soon – I like much more of his stuff than a lot of posters – I simply don't read many posts and posters due to lack of interest in the subject |
GarrisonMiniatures | 24 Feb 2016 1:28 p.m. PST |
He is missed, and I hope he is back soon. Quite a few irritating posts from him, but for me the irritations are outweighed by some of his finds. |
zoneofcontrol | 24 Feb 2016 1:37 p.m. PST |
He is one of my favorite posters. He finds and shares a lot of neat stuff that I enjoy and would not have seen otherwise. I say Tango01 & Hillary Trump for President and Vice-President in 2016! |
Hafen von Schlockenberg | 24 Feb 2016 2:42 p.m. PST |
Hillary is over thirty,so no chance. |
Old Contemptibles | 24 Feb 2016 3:45 p.m. PST |
The ignore feature doesn't really do that much. I don't see what he posted but I still get the post except it is blank. What good is that? I thought the post would just not show up at all. |
javelin98 | 24 Feb 2016 4:08 p.m. PST |
Here's to hoping he's okay. |
Texas Jack | 24 Feb 2016 10:41 p.m. PST |
Rallynow, I believe you are describing the stifle function. With ignore you will not see any posts created by the person you use it on. |
goragrad | 25 Feb 2016 1:08 a.m. PST |
Do hope he is OK. On the other point, not sure why posting an item of interest in history, archeology, current events requires an opinion to be stated |
Mako11 | 25 Feb 2016 3:04 a.m. PST |
I hope, and suspect he may be on Summer holiday. At least, I certainly hope so. In his stead, I've posted an update on the South China Sea. There are now Chinese fighter and attack jets on Woody Island, to go with those nice new S-300 SAM batteries installed there. |
Legion 4 | 27 Feb 2016 8:24 a.m. PST |
TANGO ! Where U B "Bradda" ?!?!?!? |
14Bore | 28 Feb 2016 4:21 p.m. PST |
Praying he's ok, wonder what was the longest absence he's ever had before. |
Slappy | 28 Feb 2016 11:57 p.m. PST |
+1 for the return of Tango. |
ubercommando | 29 Feb 2016 6:08 a.m. PST |
Yes, hope he's alright…always a pleasant person in demeanour to me. Mind you, scrolling through the topic threads it did get to be like reading a prophet of doom. Still, it's nice to see people here are concerned about him. |

imdone | 02 Mar 2016 7:49 a.m. PST |
Now I'm starting to worry |
Legion 4 | 02 Mar 2016 8:16 a.m. PST |
Indeed … Bill can you e-mail him direct ? always a pleasant person in demeanour , I agree totally. And IIRC, he was berated, etc., by some here and another site. Completely not the way to treat anybody. |
Editor in Chief Bill | 02 Mar 2016 1:01 p.m. PST |
Bill can you e-mail him direct ? Done! |
Hafen von Schlockenberg | 02 Mar 2016 3:02 p.m. PST |
If for nothing else,we need his help pushing the "Skimpy Armor" thread further down the Nude Figure board! |
Legion 4 | 02 Mar 2016 4:28 p.m. PST |
Thanks Bill ! "Tango zero one … this is Legion 4, Commo check … over … " |
14Bore | 02 Mar 2016 5:55 p.m. PST |
I'm praying we hear from him soon. |
wrgmr1 | 03 Mar 2016 10:05 a.m. PST |
Some may like him, some may not….but he is one of us crazies who play with toy soldiers. Hope he's ok! |
Tango01 | 03 Mar 2016 11:03 a.m. PST |
Many thanks for your worry guys…! . I have a problem in Venezuela… a robbery where I lost my notebook… then I have to go on vacations to a place without Internet… so… I'm back! (smile). Thanks again for your support!. Amicalement Armand |
Steve Wilcox | 03 Mar 2016 11:25 a.m. PST |
Glad to have you back! :) |

Tango01 | 03 Mar 2016 11:51 a.m. PST |
Many thanks! (smile) Amicalement Armand |
Legion 4 | 03 Mar 2016 2:15 p.m. PST |
Very glad for your safe return Tango ! When you go off the grid, you have to let us know before you go. We were worried you may have been abducted by aliens or something ! |
Captain dEwell | 03 Mar 2016 2:59 p.m. PST |
Ah, all's well that ends well. Normal service will be continued. |
Hafen von Schlockenberg | 03 Mar 2016 4:30 p.m. PST |
Those aliens keep trying to call him home! Glad they failed--this time! |
Legion 4 | 03 Mar 2016 4:46 p.m. PST |
I hate when that happens … I mean aliens trying to abduct you … |
14Bore | 03 Mar 2016 5:38 p.m. PST |
As long as they bring you back with interesting stories what's the harm? |
Tango01 | 03 Mar 2016 8:04 p.m. PST |
Thanks boys… the robbery was really unespected… and the vacation without Internet… well… next time I hope to advice… (smile9 Amicalement Armand |
