A wait. Phantoms. I think the TIE-Phantom is actually dead. And the upsilon, mist hunter and u-wing were both dead on arrival releases which never got fixed.

That's 4 out of 47 or so ships. 90% of the ships see table time even when most of the ships only have 1 pilot going for them.

Well, you say that, but the I quite like Zuckuss in the Mist Hunter. Especially with Mist Hunter, Trick Shot and Advanced Sensors. And while the U-Wing isn't exactly amazing, I'm still quite interested in running a Bodhi Rook build the next chance I get...

(e: @Vontoothskie, not @Marinealver) I thought you're selling your stuff anyway? So why should anyone listen to a person who is on their way out?
You clearly don't enjoy the game outside of beer&pretzel nights.

By the way, did you ever apologize for strongly demanding an apology from the FAQ leakers? I must have missed that.

nice to see you are keeping it negative dude.

1) I sold 3/4 of my collection because the game is busted and it was losing resale value as a result. I dont need your permission to post and I dont need to own a certain number of ships to post.

2) yes I did apologize. I also pointed out that that apology did not extend to nasty people like you who often make this board a negative place and prompted me to call you out in the first place.

have you apologized to the community for being toxic yet?

Sorry, dude. Between you and @GreenDragoon, the term toxic fits you better. Seriously, you are one of the most aggressive and condescending users I've seen here. And that's saying a lot for here.

Isn’t X-Wing one of, if not the most popular miniatures game on the market?

haha okay, if youre reffering to me calling out passive aggressive BS and jerkish behaviour, then sure. since this board doesnt have moderators people seem to get away with being ****, which is a huge bum out.

its interesting that my post was pointing out that we can vote with our wallets, and instead of addressing that youre personally attacking me, which ive noticed you do when you dont like what people have to say.

if you want a forum about me, check out my facebook page. this page exists to talk about game stuff

Calling out and then having to apologize for it. Care to look back at how many people posted that they were waiting for you to honor your word?

I have no beef with your original post. You have every right to vote with your wallet against things you don't like and encouraging others to do the same. I posted here because you called someone toxic who I find to actually be one of the most level headed users on here. I don't always agree with him and we've "butted heads" a time or two, but I still have respect for him. I think he asked some valid questions about you. You're answer to his first question was valid, though your lash out at the second was childish. To me, you calling @GreenDragoon toxic is the same as a pot calling a green coffee mug black.

And when I call you toxic, I would like to clarify that I am referring only to the account "Vontoothskie", not the person behind it. I don't know you. All I have is your comments here, which are just a small scrap of the entire tapestry that is your life. For all I know, you're actually a nice guy in person who has poor filters/breaks when it comes to online stuff. I can relate, to an extent. But, as far as the account Vontoothskie on these forums goes, I find it overly confrontational and lacking in anything other than whining.

Thank you for your posts, I appreciate it. In all fairness though, @Vontoothskie is one of two users who probably have the right to call me toxic, at least towards them. The other is @Marinealver and you can see in this very thread how fast he feels attacked by me. That is also not exactly unjustified...

Of course you don't. But you are on the way out, and that gives you a very clear bias: clear for people who know, but hidden to people who don't know. You believe that the game is failing, and that's your right to your own opinion. But you do not have a right to be correct, and maybe you are just wrong. Trying to drag others down with you just because you dislike the game as much as we two dislike each other is IMO a low blow and wrong: you try to destroy a fun hobby for thousands and thousands of people. Just because you are unhappy with it at the moment. To me that is clearly toxic.

It still might losing resale value. People start to own everything and it seems like the biggest growth is over. The game has still a steady growth it seems, but not as many percent growth rate as it used to be.

And selling your 8 TIE-Fighter expansions should have been a lot easier 2012 than it is now, when people will question you what the **** they should do with 8 times of that expansion when they get 6 TIE-Fighters already when they buy ONE of each expansion and have a much better pilot and upgrade card distribution as well. In other words, the early wave stuff is not a hot commodity anymore and has to share the spotlight with a lot stuff from later waves. People realized this by now it seems, so the resale value should be down. Besides, a lot more people should be leaving the game in 2018 than in 2012. So the market should be significant bigger and drive prices down of old stuff, especially when that old stuff is not just 2 month old now, but instead had been seen 5 years of table use.

His conclusion about the game falling based on less resale value is ... not on a sound base, even when in his local area he might be right about the falling prices.
