All of your points are well made, and I do appologies, but I really dislike
gossiping. I will try to be nicer about it in the future.

I never refered to the actuall Top 10 list, I wanted to concentrate on Bryce's
comments towards gossiping, however, this is a good place to comment on the
Top 10 list:
I find this whole thread now utterly disgusting (and nasty as well)! Should I
remind people that I have personally done an all too similar list myself (The
Mecha Ellite) and I posted it on lugnet and brickshelf. I am simply stunned
that if I had posted it now, I would have gotten torn appart for it! Give the
guy a break guys, it is obvious that this is his list based on his criterias
and if he likes to have a mech in there for being blue then so be it. Take
computer games for an example: different computer magazines have different
reviews about them, but they don't have to constantly remind the reader that
the review is based on the opinions of one or two people, the reader should
know that by deffault.
Is this how we treat new people here now? My deepest appologies to Jacob
Sullens ("Evilmage"), and while I hope that he will post here again, I know
that if I were in his shoes, I probably would not post here again for a very
long time :( When the Top 10 list was posted, I replied to Jacob personally
telling him that he should explore more of the mechs that were posted here, but
I had no idea that the poor guy will get more than 30 posts tearing the list
apart one piece at a time. So once again Jacob, I apologise. It is none of my
bussiness to tell you if you should "explore" more or not, and I trully fail to
see why this whole thing has gone so far, and I hope that you will be able to
post here again.
This is my final post on this topic. I have fianally gotten myself a digital
camera and I have nearly a full year of building and posting to catch up on.
Saying "enjoy building more mecha" or "have fun" which are my two usuall ending
statements now seems inapropriate, however, for me these two statements are
what defines biuld.mecha so...
Have fun and enjoy building more mecha!
Bobby (N.O.M.)
