I am picturing the FFG moderators playing wackamole right now!! with a certain leaked image that keeps popping up!!
wack a mole!!
Indeed.
Best to let it lie though. We don't want FFG to get into trouble.

The question is, were they watching, or did they get tipped off?
I bet even this thread doesn't stick around for long, It's going to be a looooong 2 and a half weeks for them... sorry guys, if you're out there reading this.
FFG vs. the internet.
Who wants to place odds?
many Bothians were slaughtered!!

Solid advice there.
Skynet is self-aware. There is no stopping it.
FFG is probably under contract to prevent the leak or encourage the viewing of any leaked material of their product on the website.
I say good on them. Now time to find the x-wing reddit forums
It's popping up all over FB, so while I entirely understand why FFG is doing what they're doing, it's just a terrible job to have to battle the inevitable. But I'm sure someone, if The Mouse can trace it back, will be a big ol' pile of doggy doo over it.
Edited by SlugrageI posted and immediately felt guilty... Almost wish it didn't get leaked, ya know? Now it's just going to be a headache for FFG when they can be focusing on so many other awesome things.
That's what interns are for. Thankless tasks.
I do hope this (insert non-infringing words) doesn't invalidate the the old one

Edited by LiquidLogicI doubt the departments of creating awesome things will have much to do with leak suppression. I do feel sorry for the forum mods who have the hopeless tak of keeping the images off the forum though.
Check Facebook. All over there now.
Anyways, thank you forum mods, for doing your thankless task. Most of us get why you're doing it.
It was stupid of Disney to think they could contain things for so long. They should have revealed at D23. Welcome to ththe age of cellphone cameras.

To be fair to FFG, censoring there own forum makes sense. It's honestly the least they can do in regards to keeping Disney lawyers happy. If they're sending out cease and desist notices and threatening actual legal action that's more in the spirit of the Streisand Effect
WELL... Looks like we are all going to be happy, I am not surprised they made a New Boxed Game. I was thinking it could go either way.
But with FFG it is pretty much always the right way.

They're not doing that (that I know of), but the guy who originally posted the pics now has his posts being moderated.
This just means I have warm fuzzy feelings that will last through September 4th, at which point I'll end up buying my 4th, and probably 5th, copy of the same thing.
At least one person has been banned over posting those photos, so FFG definitely means business about these.
