    This is the fricking idiot who compared a random black guy excited about Alpharious being revealed to the fricking Black Panther?
    The guy who caused them to start restricting access to all the designers?
    This unibomber looking motherfricker?
    Looks like the typical 1970s/80s autistic who, without Ganker as an outlet, becomes a pedo

      Because the fricking freak pedo said, to this dude who happened to be black who was there as a heresy fan, something along the lines of 'I dont see many people like you here' and then compared him to the Black Panther (because... he happened to be black).
      If it has to be explained to you why a company higher up, publicly on stage in front of customers, shouldn't say 'wow a black person!!!' You are mentally moronic.
      The guy in question made a video about it, hear the full story there. This pedo freak was wrong, his autism costs the fans something (access to designers who aren't old pedos) and he should be condemned for it.

    Gosh, you fricking pansy. Maybe you shouldn't have supported GW back when fricking all of us were telling you "you need to gatekeep harder, you need to drive homosexuals and trannies and women out of the hobby, you need to vote with your wallet, send actionable death threats, doxx" and so on and so forth. But you said "no, this is fine, they'll never do it, they caaaaaaare."

    Frick you.

    You deserve everything bad that's happening to you. And I have 0 fricking sympathy because I personally am a lot smarter than you and thus have 0 faith in corporations. Because ultimately, they will do whatever it takes to sell more plastic toy men and if they realize they can appeal to a wider audience by turning some of those plastic men into plastic women, none of your fricking salty tears are going to do jack shit about it.

    Now you're gonna say "boo hoo hoo, Anon, I don't know what to do, I want them to pander to me again." Well, they won't. And now I'm being perfectly clear here - it's gonna be an uphill climb that (You), as in (You) the individual are not going to undertake because you are a woman who complains about shit instead of doing. What you would NEED to do is to make your own plastic toy men and start selling them. Make 'em copyright friendly, like the Space King people, study law to the point of being able to defend yourself in court when GeeDubs lawyers come for your cons00mer ass, be from a country that doesn't respect copyright, and then just make your own shit and spend money on advertising it, until you have enough grogs that are gonna buy your shit instead of GW.

    The odds of this happening are 0, btw. So instead it warms my fatty, overworked heart to see how fricking mad you are. I hate you so much you fricking whiny woman. Kys.

      since 8th edtion warhammer steered away from core audience more and more, now GW is just confident enough to spit you in the face, knowing damn well that community will eiter pretend its is raining or their departure wont hurt their sales too much.

      Play other games if they are still cater to you, or play older versions of the game with 2nd hand or 3d printed models.
