The Energon Pub

Combiner Wars Superion. Blah!

Just pick up the repurposed Energon ones! Or just go with the legends class Target exclusive ones released from repurposed legends figures! Same with Bruticus! Or even Devastator! I mean, why wait? According to some, these are viable representatives of classics figures, so why the hell would you wait? Shame on you! You could have had these years ago!


Same with Ultra Magnus! He was released years ago in the Classics line itself. How dare you think it should be released to match its G1 appearance in a Classics line! Meh, just recolor an Optimus!

Better yet, to hell with Leader UM! Just buy the Legends class figure and save yourself $45!

According to YOU. Its all subjective, its all a matter of opinion. But REFRAIN from insulting members, especially staff member who have put a lot of time and effort into editorials like this.

Opinions can be made without being rude.

And anyone struggling to find a Leader Megs in G1 colors is a FOOL. Just pick up the RTS legends figure! Or just buy the cheap, crappy Asian release where it turns into a silver tank! Or better yet, buy the shellformer NERF gun version! That one is AWESOME!


Do I need to keep going?

Point out where I insult anyone? Stop harassing me. You have made three false accusations against me since you started on the staff because you have some problem with me parroting the G3 label. You are trying to be coy about it and it is pathetic. You have NO proof to back up what you claim I am doing. So, either present it, or get off my back.

That's Va'al and his neural beam thingy. If you can fight it and go on to praise Stalker I'll make you a Mod.

And Stalker and the Predator jets are G1. They just didn't get a US release.

I LIKE STALKER HE IS BEST TRANSFORMER EVAR (am I a mod yet?) :p

Be careful what you ask for.

Yeah, and choose your allegiances very carefully, too.

Don't fear him Moosey, he just uses his pretty boy looks to attract his followers.

Just got cought up on the CW leader thread.

Go ahead and mod him burn, you definitely need more back up.

Seriously? Its in my original quote.

shockblast2 wrote:Again, any list without the five aforementioned figures is crap.

Calling his hard work crap is an insult. And any time I've commented on your behavior has been warranted. Also, I haven't said boo about your G3 ideas in quite some time so I've no idea why you're bringing it up.

Either way, none of this has to do with the fact that you have it FULLY within your power to express yourself without insulting others. Please make use of it. Anything further will be over PM's amongst ourselves or Admin.

Why do I always have to step in when I have a massive deadline looming over my head?

Shockblast2 - We are asking you (as shajaki has done) to not denigrate and diminish the *voluntary* work that the staff are putting into these features. Intentional misreadings of other user's posts are also not a good way of advancing the conversation. Calling something crap is in no way possible to misconstrue as a 'non-insult'.

Shajaki has not behaved out of place, if a only a little more brusque than needed, but we have all been on the receiving end of verbally abusive behaviour for a while now.

I will see no further discussion in this thread on the matter, and all posts continuing this will be removed by me. You are free to continue via PM, or email me directly.


Play nice, everyone.

No, stop.
Because you are completely missing the point of the thread.

That's two threads in as many days where I have thankfully arrived after the maelstrom.

Halleluyah!!!

Everything should have hip thrusting action.

Hey, if you can't take the heat, get out of journalism. When you put your opinion out there and are bold enough to call it the "TOP FIVE" and people don't agree, then expect to hear some criticism. Calling this list crap is LIGHT compared to what I have seen people say about members here in general in a DIRECT attack. I have no problem with William. he is a nice guy. If he thought my list was crap I wouldn't get all bent out of shape about it, like Spiderman there. He is just itching to give me a warning here and has been since he became part of the staff, because he has always had some problem with me having a personal opinion. I am not stupid, and his coy mannerisms to my posts are proof of that.
Calling the list crap doesn't mean I am ripping his hard work. You said that, not me. It just means I do not agree. Remember, something we have the RIGHT to?

Well, it's your right to give your opinion to call the list "crap".
In that case, it's my right to give my opinion to call you an "asshole".

Flawless logic!

Because you are completely missing the point of the thread.

And you missed the point of my sarcasm.

Of course, your post was one of the catalysts for my posts, so I can see why you did not see the humor in it.

No, that is actually a personal attack.

See, this guy flagrantly breaks the rules, and I am the bad guy for giving my OPINION on a list that makes a bold claim based on opinion? I see people call others favorite this and that's "crap" for "silly" all day long and yet, nothing is ever said. Then, all the sudden, when I do, Spider-ham there swings in and starts harassing me because he doesn't like my opinions.

Keep this in mind staff. If you are not going to enforce the rules AS WRITTEN then don't be surprised when the rest of us do not have any respect for you.

Trying to pretend your sea of whine as "sarcastic jokes" is pretty pathetic. You missed the point of the thread from the very start. You missed it so much that you are kinda complaining there's no apples in the recipie when wer were talking about building a doghouse.


All right, not responding to you anymore.
Lemme leave some tinder right here....

Seeing as certain members have opted to ignore the request of a staff member, warnings have been issued.

Well worth it. If no one is going to say something then at least I had the guts to.

I expect people like you to enforce the rules. Of course, I am not surprised.

Have another warning.

Burn wrote:G1 Stalker and the rest of the Predators.

Not sure why that wasn't at number one ...

Mmmmmmmm.....criticism.


Better warn yourself while you are at it.

How about another?


After that though, I will have to check my schedule......

Well ... his schedule is now a bit more free for a week. Anyone else want to continue this or can we get back on track?

I'd like to see Rotorstorm done again, either a brand new mould or out of the Tomahawk mould (keeping his two missile launchers.) Could also repaint the Skyhammer/MW Sandatorm mould to reference the original Machine Wars Sandstorm being a repaint of Rotorstorm.

Titan Omega Supreme is on my list too - I wonder if Devastator was designed as a Titan so that his nemesis would be too?

I've recently put Rotorstorm on my want-list. A Generations figure would be awesome, but he needs to be his own guy.

I have him and for me, he's the defenitive Omega Supreme. No regrets for the 120$ he cost me.
Really.
He's like 300-400$ on Ebay right now!
