Thread locked for bumping?

[HeroFox]

Hi there,

Today, I had my thread locked by an admin:
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=260731

Apparently, I violated a rule that I was bumping my own thread, which in all honesty, I was not doing. I was responding to someone who posted in my thread, and that should not be categorized as bumping.

If this qualifies for bumping, please just remove my last reply and then re-open the thread. I see no reason why it should be locked over a misunderstanding.

Happy 4th,
Larry

Will you give me a discount if my mustache is larger than yours:?

Valete,

You bet.

You were responding to a poster that if his moustache was larger than yours, you would give a discount?

Honestly?

I understand people are freaking on the new AoS stuff but comments like that should be kept to PM only.

Since it is July 4th and the US bday I will remove ALL comments and unlock your post. However, please take things like that to PM.

EDIT - For those of you who do not follow the new AoS. There is a model that if the owner's moustache is larger than their opponent, they may re-roll the dice.

Did you read my opening post? I was legit offering discounts to the army for people to just make an offer. Age of Sigmar has me that bitter.

Thanks for unlocking my thread though. I appreciate it.

Probably should wait to see if the other shoe is going to drop, but hey... it's your models.

Well, if you believe in internet rumours here is one for you. Comes from The Bearded One on Warseer (who is a good guy):

Okay, I was there this morning for preordering, and chatted with him a bit more about this stuff. He was at the managers meeting/briefing previous weekend, during which they were all briefed about AoS.

- They literally got an introduction to AoS from the developers themselves, and they all had 5-10 minutes to chat with them a little. Plenty of managers asked very specific questions regarding WHFB's future, and numerous managers asked the devs about 9th edition.
- My manager confirmed that the armybook stock is supposed to be returned/destroyed. Armybooks might return to the shelves within some months (no exact timescale known yet), but in combined versions like they were in the End Times (eg. undead legion).

- The developers were very adamant that AoS was a different game. Not WHF 9th edition, nor WHF's replacement alltogether.


Considering all the managers were at the managers meeting, people who aren't Americans living 500 miles away from a GW store should be able to pop down to the local GW and ask their managers about this stuff.

My manager really wanted to make sure that he had got all the correct information from his higherups, so that he wouldn't have to placate his customers with false promises or speculation like may have happened in the past, so when the oppertunity arose he was asked about WHFB's future, as were most other managers. He knows his customerbase and knows (and shares) the concerns that would **** them off. He knows if he couldn't give any guarantees as to WHFBs survival, he'd - and I quote - "likely be stoned to death by you guys".

Salt of course in everything but I think people are jumping the gun here. If they really do bring out a new combined book and bring back the rules then a lot of people are going to have to start their armies again lol.

EDIT - I created a thread if you would like to further discuss this more since although it is somewhat relevant to the OP it is better to be discussed elsewhere: viewtopic.php?f=110&t=260787
