Courtesy - Polite acts or remarks.
Polite - Having good manners.
Has this flaming been going on since BlooMilk started? Or is it that I have just been reading more posts?
Shinja has built a wonderful playground for us to play in. Let's show him, and others some respect. Remember, THIS IS JUST A GAME. People we are playing with tiny dolls.
You disagree with a post and think the poster is a moron? Fine. Take a few deep breaths and politley (see above) respond. The poster still can't see your astounding logic and clarity of thought? Move on. Please remember the other doll playing members on this site and use courtesy (see above).
Well, that's my rant.

I do have to quarrel with the above statement of "tiny dolls." I prefer the term "Miniature statues."
Dolls feels so little girlish IMO. Other than that, I agree.

But Miniature Statues I think can be agreed upon by both sexes, where doll's may be crossing a line  . I'm totally j/k, I really don't care, just thought wanted to give juiceman a difficult time.

The OP is correct, I think people(not saying any names in particular) could show a bit more courtesy on the forums.

Well, that's my rant. Word.  p.s. - I would rather refer to them as "toys", but point taken.

I would refer to them as minute individual nostalgia inducing always tradable ultra rare enticing starwars, or miniatures for short.....wait a minute  And if you can repeat that ten times fast, you deserve a cookie and a glass of bloo milk

Don't know who coined it, but I've always prefered the term "Plastic Crack".
And now that I've contributed to the complete derailment of this thread......
I do agree with the original poster. A little courtesy in our posts would be great.
And in answer to his question, no the flaming wasn't around as much in the beginning, it seems to have picked up in recent months.

"tiny dolls" sounded funnier and hopefully added some perspective.

Some good points Juice man.....tiny dolls or not. People are taking these forums way to seriously. It is really easy to attack someone when you know you are never going to meet them. Before you respond to a post, think about how you would respond if you were face to face with that person.

can't they just be called miniature FIGURES? c'mon.... they get squished too easily to be called "statues". :)
and yeah, as a kid, I was annoyed when people would call my GI Joe's "dolls"... seriously. ;) gosh mom, those are FIGURES, hello!

It's funny how every single post here has had a reference to tiny dolls.
I agree fully, although a bit of a joke can be fine as long as it stays that way.

But I really think that it depends on what people consider are "dolls". But either way, it really doesn't matter does it? This thread is just odd...

Odd, only because this thread has gone off-topic. I think a reboot is in order. Plastic Crack is a pretty good description, considering how bent out of shape some posters are getting on the boards here of late. It definitely wasn't like this when I first came here back in January. I hope things will settle down and stay that way.
