Attitudes on Age of Sigmar, GW and general stuff

[Gaz Taylor]

Due to some of the posts we’ve seen recently, I think I need to remind some of you what we want to see here on TGA.

The reason we all visit this forum, is because we like assembling, painting and gaming with Games Workshop miniatures and playing Age of Sigmar (or a combination of those or some of the other things they do). Now I’d like to think we are all a little bit mature and know that we may all like different things and not always agree on the same things. HOWEVER, some of you have been posting negative comments and if I’m honest, after a long day or work the last thing you want to read is somebody moaning about a hobby you enjoy and use to escape the horrors of the real world.

Its okay not to like everything GW does. 

It’s okay not to agree with what everybody else says.

Its okay to be a bit grumpy about something you have been looking forwards to and not have it turn out you would like it.

BUT it’s not okay to moan and post negative comments. It’s just not great to read about something you enjoy. We Mods try to lurk in the background and steer things as they need to because we think you all want to enjoy this forum in the same way. We are not saying you can’t say you don’t like something but just be constructive with the criticism. If you are replying to something, just pause and think of what you are writing could be classed as negative. 
 

In no way am I saying we are going cancel culture, Woke or whatever you want to call this but I would like to think you could apply some common sense, care about your fellow hobbyists and players and generally keep this a great forum for discussing about Age of Sigmar.

Thank You

I dont like reading negative stuff all the time either, but I definitely think people should be able to post their feelings on the subjects at hand. 

I think or hope that people whom at this point loathe GW and or AOS should really ask themselves why they bother to post on GW AOS sites etc and maybe try to think of ways to productivity add or maybe move on to a new hobby or game if they don't like this one.

Thanks Gaz you are hero amongst men for taking this stand and posting it.  

 

This forum used to be people who loved AoS and worked on ways to make their armies work and find ways to solve problems.  

 

Some guy even posted in the positivity thread some rant about a couple things in retaliation to me saying i was happy about a few things.  haha man people ,...

Extremely well said. No idea when basic respect and decency for our fellow humans became "woke cancel culture."
