    Earlier today I started a neat thread about holy grails. I guess by mistake my meaning was what would be the last thing you'd keep if you had to move everything but one - and right away I had at least 3 people complaining about my wording, etc. Sad.

    I guess I'm one of the "sad" ones then. Every time I've seen the "Holy Grail" term used in the game used hobby is was about that one elusive item you're searching for, you know it's out there somewhere but you've not found it or haven't been able to get it for one reason or another.

    I know the last piece in my collection I'd part with and in no way would I consider it a "Holy Grail" item. I have no "Holy Grail" items in my collection, so I didn't respond with that one last piece I'd sell.

    You simply used a term that is typicaly associated differently, and you expect nobody to notice? I'm not attacking nor complaining just pointing out what I'm sure most people thought when you said "Holy Grail" and yes I know you outlined in your post what you meant it's just not common to do that.

        It's one thing to disagree with points being made by those that are questioning or even challenging GUU management over recent changes to the way the forums are being administered. It is wholly another to start telling others to in essence STFU - or to tell them to get in lock step or take a hike.

        I would suggest to some of you that you might try and at least respect the differences of opinion or concerns of others, even if you don't agree with them personally.

          Are you serious? People are going beyond expressing thier opinions or concerns. They are provided with the rules, but fail to want to accept them. Hence, being rude and disrespectful.

          Give me a break!

            Well said. Respect for others is one thing many people seem to lack online. But then again, many people lack it in the real world as well these days.

              This is the first decent point you made. I applaud you. A challenge to you, if you are so pro collector and against guu profit, why don't you list some of your items in the upcoming auction and donate the proceeds to a charity? For you obvioulsy feel this website should be not for profit. I'm sure the powers to be would waive any fees charged.

              If you are not willing to put your money were your mouth is then please stop responding to this thread.

                I think what he is saying is that everyone here has their opinion and is aloud to share it and not be criticized for doing so. Though a lot of people complain about pointless things on here, the fact of the matter is, this isnt about who makes profit etc etc... How about how the site is ran in general? And then what are these quotes? "If you dont like it, then leave?" Now what does that solve? How about we work on the things that need a fixin and and stop telling people to leave if they dont like it, thats childish and solves nothing.

                  There's nothing to fix. The owners of this site have listened to the voices of this forum. They elect to do their best and make everyone happy. A task that's impossible. The set the rules and we should abide by them. If we don't like them, then LEAVE...MOVE ON! Nothing wrong with that being said.

                    If you say theres nothing to fix, you obviously havent read the threads in the last year.

                      There's nothing to fix. We are visitors to this forum. We are particpants in this forum. We're not the owners. We're not partners.

                      Accept what is offerred. If you don't like it...LEAVE!

                      How difficult is that to understand. If I owned this website, I'd shut it down. Not worth the crap they are given.

                        At this point, I don't see any value in leaving this thread open. If you have any further questions or concerns please feel free to email me directly. I will respond to emails either later this evening or by tomorrow morning. I'm happy to listen to any comments but I think this thread has run its course.

                        The original question has been answered (Jason it is post #34). At this point, I think it's time to focus on the forum rule that states:

                        It is expected that all posts are to be created with a sincere attempt to benefit the hobby.
