There's an elephant in the pinball room

[Pintoxicated]

Whoopsy, didn't realise there was such a huge battle going on behind the scenes!

I know pinball is like a religion to some of us, but taking to the shiite vs sunni type level is a bit sad.

What can one do? I'll try and never speak their initials again....

I don't believe there is a huge battle between forums. Plenty of people including myself use both forums daily. I don't understand why some feel the need to choose a forum.

Sometimes you will find that the choice is not yours.

I notice there seems to be an influx of active AA members on AP of late, particularly viewing this thread.  Shame they don't wish to contribute.

I am wondering if the people who run the other forum appreciate this behavior? I am thinking they are probably a little embarrassed now.

well it apparent that people like EB likes to dish but not take and he is the solo force behind forum verse forum. in all this I have not posted anything bad about AA nor anything on AA for a while, but you got idiots like destroying the hobby

  I had to capture it so it is there for life

maybe I am biased because I have posted here over 2400 times and just over 100 on AA, poor didems

Ian (howzat) and myself are still going, we have a motel booked already  

Just not sure if we will be taking a couple of games like we wanted to   i still want to if its possible
either way we will be there 

 I'm sure it will be a good event

I dont think u will be missing anything at all Swinksy. The fact that the leadership from there allowed you to be banned for nothing says alot.
Nothing has changed in 5 years, and i expect nothing ever will.

Complete disagree Brett . How would you know what its like if you didn't attend last year ?

There were plenty of pins and plenty of people so no need to associate with anyone you didn't want to .

I reckon you should go along Jady and play some pinball at a great venue  .

As much as I want to, I don't think I am welcome so doubt the experience will be as enjoyable

sorry, u misread me, I didnt mean Swinksy would be missing anything at the newcastle show, i meant he wont be missing anything by being booted off the other forum. Hence the reference to nothing changing in the last 5 years (their forum).

And yes, anyone shld go to the show if they want to, because people who are usually keyboard commandos, are usually pis-weak face to face, and even if someone from the other side was rude to Jady face to face, like he mentioned last year happened as he was leaving, he can quiet simply tell them to go F%$K themselves. But yes, more AP people going to it, the better.
