Has anyone heard from Wingz? It's been a while since she stepped away, and I was just wondering how she was.

Fri Jun 19, 2020 12:55 pm

The fb group has heard of her through the grapevine.
She's moved and seemingly doing well in life.
Don't expect her back any time soon (if ever) though. :-(

Much obliged for the update Bun.

I take a week off for personal reasons and you lot completely fall apart?

Let's see what I can do to fix this... But you should really consider bringing AZ over if the lack of backup from one high level Bot can cause the entire faction to crater.

Hmmm... maybe I should postpone my 3rd retirement from the game?

Alright Bots,

I know everybody was happy to see Wingz back but now she's gone and challenged me.

I know I can count on all your support cause really what'cha all gonna do without me. You need my guys to reliably have your back in missions.

At the same time KAM steps up to challenge me at the same time. (And Wingz too, I guess, but let's focus on the important stuff here) But again I know yinz got my back because I've been there for you. Sure I may not be there fixing you like Nurse Wingz and her cut-rate mechanic crew but I pull in the wins so that even when you die shielding me you get those nice basic win payouts.

Rally to me, mechs!
Show some appreciation for the years I've spent holding this floundering faction together!

Sat Jul 25, 2020 9:38 pm

Years, Bun? I was barely gone for one and a half! :roll:

Autobots and Maximals!

You are strong leaders, capable of handling yourselves in this war! Bun here thinks you all rely on him, but I believe in you as individual warriors! Rally to me, and let's show this rabbit you're strong without him! :MAXIMAL:

Sat Jul 25, 2020 9:42 pm

That happened just from me being gone a week.
They're individual warriors that need this guy to keep them afloat.

Sat Jul 25, 2020 11:21 pm

Or, perhaps you had driven them away with how humble you are even before you left that week?

If they wanted to fight, they would fight, and having a purpose to do so may be just what they need!

I ask you, again, brave Autobot and Maximal teams! Will you fight by my side? :MAXIMAL:

As far as i know I've managed to drive off exactly 3 people from this game:

1- Jack. Much to the benefit of all
2- TT. Not even sure how but he sure did ragequit in response to my comments that had nothing to do with him.
3. Ryan. By not heaping sufficient praises upon his EGO when he does the smallest of back-end updates (that usually just involve him getting more AD revenue)

Hows this for purpose:
Fight in the missions, be my top supporter via points, and I'll donate my prizes (whatever they end up being) to you (plus maybe some bonuses like energon or shiny XS2's) & you'll be welcome to take the honored title of First Acolyte of the new HMW Messiah ( Moi ) :saint:

HMW Messiah, Bun? This is bad comedy!

I don't need a fancy title to kick your team's chassis in this competition :twisted:

and I don't need a reward as incentive to do it! It's clear to me that you've needed this ego check for a long time now, so bring it!

Sun Jul 26, 2020 12:42 pm

Humpf

I will forgive you this blasphemy... once I've extracted a suitable penance.

And don't blame me for TT. Who knew slighting Jack would have triggered him.

I believe you already did that work for me :roll:

I was accepting credit, not blame. >:oP

j/k TT, come back soon so we can get back to being BFF's

I think TT left again because of my return. He said a "bunch of bots refuse to play" with me when I was a con, which was weird. Also weird was he was really the only one who vanished. But lets face it, the OG messiah is far better than a broken Brit/Jallows worshipper.

There could have been many reasons for why he left. I wasn't there, so I only have the context from the thread and don't feel it's my place to speculate on his decision. What I will say is that I hope he does come back at some point.

a broken Brit/Jallows worshipper.

AZ, I have a lot of respect for you. I find you to be funny, the smack talk is good, and you're incredibly reliable in missions! I'll be the first to say, though, that I appreciated TT, too, and saying things like this isn't the way to get him back. Community has always been incredibly important to me. That includes you. That includes TT. If I had returned to the game to find any comments like this directed at me, based on my beliefs or things I cared about, it would have been off-putting.

I can't stop you, and I won't presume to say you don't have the right to speak your mind. I'll defend your right to speak your beliefs to the death. Just please consider what I've said, also. :MAXIMAL:

Yes, I'm actually bummed out that TT isn't playing now

Dude took the HMW forums too seriously.

HMW forums were never designed for seriousness.

Jack or TT? :lol:

Maybe it's that I was gone so long, but I always thought TT was being sarcastic in his comments? Such as to say, he made himself out to be serious for comic effect? It's been a really long time, though.

On that note, though, I do agree with you. You definitely need a sense of humor to take part in the forums. Looking forward to the event smack-talk thread a lot
