Get real here.
You must admit that b1tching because you don't get a print and b1tching because OG couldn't get the print to drop for 3 days are different. I've done both and my complaints at not getting a print can easily be dismissed.. that's the fun of the pursuit right?

On 2: So you have complained about the system since for X amount of time, yet you contend that people who complain about not liking the system automatically should try to buy one. Right...
3: If you're tired of reading complaints, maybe you need to stop reading the thread?
Regardless, since the OG site has posted apologies, that undercuts the arguments of people who ironically "complain about the complainers". Its as real as it gets.
Clearly the three day (and counting?) wait isn't making anyone happy.

on your 2.. No, i've realized that I choose to put my self through he!!, no one is forcing me.
on your 3.. I wish i could stop reading, but like getting this print, it's kind of like crack.
I really don't think i was "complaning about the complainers" I was stating that: Demanding anything from OG/Shepard is a waste of time.
I love you, thanks for being my forum friend today
Peace

I don't see it either.
This is the new one ... the old post referenced 7/17 which this one does not do... they just left the original post date.
Thank you can you enlighten me to where the preview section is? Thanks.
I think I'll send 'em another email. Just to check.

Re: !OFFICIAL! Duality of Humanity !ANTICIPATION THREAD!
So who was it who asked, back in the 20s, what the over/under on this page going 40 pages would be?
Can I still place a bet?
I think the question is now: what is the over/under on this thread going a cool 100 pages?
