    I maintain hope that things will settle down enough that coming back to play seems like a sane use of time.

    Hell, by then I might have my marines painted.

    If I may....

    over the past five years of living here. I have experienced the following....

    invited and welcomed to the group by a few. encouraged to build an army, and return to the hobby divorce, and bad life choices took me away from.

    upon completion of a 2k+ army for 40k. Told not to bring it to monthly tournaments unless I want to lose. even to the extent of being blown off of the few Thursdays I popped in.
    discouraged by this I turn attention to fantasy, and get pretty much the same response when I showed up with my small and humble starter army to learn the game.

    only a small few have maintained a welcoming, and positive attitude towards me getting involved with the group. all that said.... I see the venom.

    Just sold the 40k army to pay my light bill. the fantasy was sold last month. I paint for fun when my little girl and her mom let me. was going to give age of sigmar a go....but with all the venom towads it. May just stay home, hang up the dice.

    Not sure where I was going with this...... Morrella888, Mr. John cook..... thanks for the warm welcome. :/ maybe we can get a game in one day.

    Oh no Psi! So sorry life is giving you trouble.

    Hogleg is enthusiastic about AoS - maybe send him a pm to find out if there is anything going on with that. I agree with people that it doesn't currently fit the 'competitive' format well, but outside of that narrow use, most of the people I have talked to/heard from seem to say it is a lot of fun. Actually, knowing how/why you like to play, I think it would be right up your alley.

    I know the arguing here gets you down and keeps you from participating more, and I have met quite a few people with similar experiences from both groups.

    You are more than welcome to send me a message whenever you like if you want to meet up. Truly hope things get better for you.

    Don't know what is filled with more drama.....This thread or the Real Wives (pick one)......lol

    You guys make me sad, even though I haven't been there in a while thought that you guys had a good community.
