My my, some people take trivial things far too seriously. I for one enjoyed reading all the lighthearted banter flying around this thread and grimaced at those that took it just that wee bit too far (shame on you). Will be honest in stating that i don't particularly care for Ramulus, however, the toy galleries here are done well so im therefore looking forward to viewing the new addition.

WEEEE! Evidently, I'm a green Botcon prototype green Ramulus! And I'm rare! And valuable!

All kidding aside I had no idea what was going on...

I doubt anyone actually thought you were when you were going around posting Power Puff Girls images

Please, someone thought the "404 ERROR" in my motto was a numerical clue! And would PPG really be any more ridiculous than Spawn? Hasbro owns Transformers and Todd McF has his own toy company. Spawn never made sense. But I was only trying to add to the fun. At least the mods knew I was kidding around and were cool with it. I thank them for not ban hammering me into oblivion!

Sorry for being a party pooper guys.

OMG weak.

So much suspense for so little payoff.

*cuts wrists*

I dont care what people are saying I am goin with Shockaract, in the beast wars comics, http://media.comics.ign.com/media/956/9 ... 8.htmllook at that pic and tell me no? I dont want green ramulus, hes a waste of space, hes angry, he dont trust, hell be strong warrior but he will be match for ravage, and pair up with grimlock. its just a no, to plain, to obvious to boring. and it is related to comic, if you go to the news about the preeview comic, it says he is comic, its related. no toy gallery, its shockaract or diff color of rampage to fit unicron better. I dont care if you think im wrong. but i like to think its something alittle more exciting

Thank you for the positive feedback.
It was supposed to be something fun and light hearted and at least some of you got that out of the experience.

Lots of fun guys. This is the first thread in a while that's really had me checking the site on a semi regular basis again.


Oh, BTW, Ramulus kicks hater ass!!

It isn't a question on if we think you are wrong, because you are wrong. The mods and Ryan have confirmed that it is a green Ramulus.

In the end, i think the mod should do it more often.

This whole post just screams of Delusion.

I for one enjoyed this tread.
I have to admit though, it saddens me to see someone ban-hammered on it.
As for everyone who is saying “Ramules suck” or “this was a waste of time”, I say you can have your opinion, but don’t ruin the fun (yes, FUN) for the rest of us. This was very enjoyable and I hope the mods do it again sometime soon. Ryan’s comment about “more stuff up his sleeve” gives me hope.
In the end I think we could all benefit from a little less negativity (and coming from a guy who’s motto is “We’re all going to die!”, that’s saying something).

KREMZEEK!

As much as I hated the outcome after reading 50 pages nonstop to try and catch up there was one bright spot. HIM! Whoever Him is, you rock. I did laugh at several of your posts. Sam I Am?

The Still, it'll be nice to see a green version. With all the hype on this thread, I was fantasising that someone customised a Cybertron Primus into "Seibertron". I've thought of attempting that one day myself. I think it would be cool. Cybertron recolored/altered to look more like Seibertron from the last Botcon T-shirt or the one in the background of this site. The robot mode could have an altered head to look at least a little like Ryan and the weapons and such could be named after the staff. I thought it would be cool. I don't think I have the skills to pull it off, but if someone else would like to, I'll pitch in the Primus . If not, maybe I'll have the skills to pull it off one day. I'm just learning to customize. See my "Arise Slamurai" thread in the Kitbashing and Artwork section. Cridics welcome Here's the link...

Call me the boring old codger, but w/o a payoff, this was a total waste.

I mean come on, as a casual poster, yet hardcore site user, I expected something being pushed on the front page to be something important....something major. That's what I expect from Seibertron.com. That's what Seibertron.com delivers, and that's why I hit the site like.... a billion times a day.

Fun is fun, but this was a letdown.

The 'crowd' doesn't have to like my opinion, but it must be respected. I'm sure I'm not alone.

Waste of what, might I ask? Not of money, that's for sure. At least not for us. (Possible for Ryan)

But go ahead, be mad that your FREE ENTERTAINMENT isn't giving you everything you want.

I can see both sides, but you definately have a point. It does seem like alot of build up. That's why there were so many responses. On the other hand, some people like it this way aparently so I guess you just can't please everyone.

i gus we need to wart to mor info coms h?

Time?

Free entertainment? Wha?

Seibertron.com is NOT charity. The site isn't up b/c someone feels sorry for me or the bored fandom...

In addition, it wouldn't be hard to imagine this nifty little site pulling in some sort of revenue or other such benefits. Look at your sidebar if you don't belive that.

Mad? Not even close. Disappointed? Hell yea. I think alot of this site. In fact, it's the ONLY TF related site I visit. *period*

Am I not allowed to express my disappointment?

UPDATE:

I'm not saying this is an exact science here...but check out dnscoop.com.

Just because the site can generate money does not change the fact that all of the content is available to us for free.

SO, in your opinion, Ryan should be charging posters in order to make profit?

Ok, you can pay him if you want, but this is a free internet discussion forum not a company.

Isn't it strange that the posters stating that this was a waste of their time it is the first post of theirs that I have seen in this thread?

I don't know if you were guessing or not, but if you weren't then why do you care that it wasn't something larger than what it turned out to be?

My understanding is that you were constantly spouting the negatives...which essentially functions as a poison for this kind of environment. Whether or not that is grounds for a ban is beyond me.

I know with my forums if someone is generally ruining the environment and just slitting the throats of my threads, I would ban their IP. Nobody likes a douche who ruins all the fun. Now I agree that the hype for this thread was a little excessive (toned down a notch would've been perfect), but......oi gevalt, I gave myself a migrane.....

It's not only a Satanic Rule of the Earth. It's common sense.
