Yeah, i contemplated dropping the cash just to get Grindor @ Costco last week but managed to pull evey drop of will power i had and decided to hold off for when it's released on its own. Unless of course there's someone out there looking for Ratchet...

All you guys who want the first sightings need do is PM the Moderation team when you see a new release....or even create a thread like I did. Give the Mod team some help, they are volunteers with lives and interests beyond living on this forum(Well except for GMFan, he's here 24/7:p)

This is a nation wide forum and I expect most of the Ontario members are not frequenting the Manitoba or Alberta or Quebec sightings boards, likewise don't expect the members from BC to be frequenting the Ontario Sightings Forum.

If you find something you think is new just let the powers that be know. We'll get a lot further working together.:)

Honestly nobody is trying to steal your first sighting, but it would be really, really nice to let folks from beyond your own Province know when something new is released.:)

Robimus,

Well said!

You summarized everything well and appeared to have chose your words very carefully!

However, I would like to make the following factual observations:

1. jacobot, Nocturn, and myself did not express any explicitly anger or animosity
2. jacobot, Nocturn, and myself did not explicitly address any of the moderator(s) OR yourself in our public responses
3. jacobot, Nocturn, and myself did not employ any words to convey an insult

In my humble opinion, you have absolutely mis-interpreted our (jacobot, Nocturn, and myself) responses as insults. We simply stated facts.

I have read, re-read, and read again the previous posted messages. I was unable to interpret any attack or insult, explicit or implied, against you or the moderator(s).

In my opinion, jacobot had made two (2) humorous remarks: the Costco membership and an "inside joke" to a friend (or another member). I did not interpret these two (2) remarks as attacks against you or the moderator(s).

If convenient, please re-read the previous posts and verify my stated opinion.

If you do not agree with my opinion, I am afraid that we will have to "agree" to "disagree".

^Either way this has been getting friggan irritating as of late, and I don't know how many times we have to say "the first one we see or brings it to our attention gets credit, no ifs ands or buts" before people understand and stop complaining.

RedOktobre: I didn't address anyone in my post except those who want the news credits. If you don't want one, then my post has nothing to do with you.

That said this is a recurring issue, as GMFan mentions. It's happened over and over and over again. If you want a news credit, shoot a PM. If you don't, well then don't worry about it.

You've addressed your entire post to me when I didn't mention your name a single time.

My response was a general one about an ongoing issue on this forum.

Well if no one else wants the credit, I'll take it :p

JK, I'm just being a Yagoff... can't sleep :(

Ha ha well ya sees there's method to the madness, last time there would have been multiple people to credit and the time before that with the activators was because I made the first sighting and it would have been stupid to thank myself for the sighting.

Just as stupid as signing up for a website and insulting and constantly annoying the people who run it and suddenly wonder why you get banned from said website...
