he wasn't the only issue but more like the straw that broke the camel's back...there have been problems for about the last two years...and the info is still on other websites...Gamers, holocron, etc and the radio show

just sign up and someone will approve your account your first 3 posts have to be approved it is how spam bots are kept out after that you are all set.



When he is the one getting the major shaft most of the time from people here (not all people) he kind of got tired of dealing with it, thats as much as I' willing to discuss it you can ask him about it.

but in order to do that we all have to register for gamers?

As Dean has pointed out many times - it is free to register.

I am disappointed in the whole thing. SW minis is in bad enough shape as it is.

It is important to "advertise" as much as possible the V sets to maintain interest in the game.

I would hope we would all work together to promote the game. May be we can in the future.

Juice man, yes Deans site is free to register, but it is much more difficult to navigate and use than this site.
Dean has been told this previously and alludes to it in his posts. He is likely too busy to devote time to improving his site.
And we all, let me emphasize ALL, appreciate what he has done and is doing for the game.

I understand it's difficult to travel (I'm a Mod there and I have problems) but most people just use the View New Posts and do it that. Dean tried to reassemble the order of forums awhile ago but I still feel it didn't help out too much.

FOr the Most part i have been an avid BLoomilk and WOTC user of their forums since i got an account. I have found Gamers site more difficult as was said above. BUt i have started to migrate over their more often, since the wotc site is becoming more useless. This is not to put the Gamers site down, infact i encourage all of you to go and visit their site also. Maybe eventually the problems of the Past Will resolve themselves and we may eventually be able to use the Vsets on this site.

Well said!

I joined Gamers maybe even before I joined Bloomilk when I was still brand new and floundering about for information about minis. I find it hard to find the time to actively be involved in 2 forums and as this one appeared to have more traffic I tended to shift my attentions here more. But, now I am making more of an effort with both. If everyone had an account on both sites then I feel this rift wouldn't be half so bad.

And why sir do you think that is, especially when a member of the gamer's community is involved in one of the dramatic disputes that occurs over here on bloomilk a fair portion of the time?

Could it be that most of the people with differing opinions than those of the gamer's community simply don't go on the gamers site, because they know their opinions would not be welcome and simply don't wish to stir up trouble? At gamers, you have to sign up for an account, get approved, and have your first posts approved. Granted, the guys over there have a logical reason for doing so, but still its alot of security and a little bit of hassle just to begin posting over on that site and viewing material posted over there.

So why would a member of the "community" go through that trouble just to be able to view material and post on a site where they know they wouldn't be welcome?

On bloomilk, its easier to get an account and the community is (from my admittedly limited experience) more diverse in its members than gamers (most gamers members also post or have accounts here, but the reverse is hardly true) so, of course you're gonna see more arguments over here. That being said, I will point out again that a prominent or loyal Gamer's member, from what I've seen, tends to be involved in a fair portion of the baiting, combative arguments that occur on this site. Just reference the past few days for examples.

So to characterize the forums over here on bloomilk as being "less friendly" than the forums over on gamers is inaccurate to say the least. Frankly, comments like that are the kind that plant the seeds of the kind of drama we've seen over the past several days. Why even compare the two as they are vastly different sites with different things to offer their community members? Gamers and bloomilk are DIFFERENT. Let's just leave it at that and go about our lives.

EDIT: It also might be a good idea to lock this thread so such an argument does not reoccur.....it feels to me like rehashing what happened is only begging to stir up trouble and begin the whole "us" vs "them" argument again.
