Oh! Nice one, Fenton. I might actually use this site.

I tried TMP, but found it to be full on toddlers piddling in their sandpit.

I thought TMP was "Tango01 Miniatures Page". With the amount of click bait he posts I'm surprised he's not somehow monetizing his activity. I think Bill hasn't curtailed his activities because he provides content, although most of what Tango posts is only gaming related if you stretch the idea of what is gaming related. But Bill doesn't realize that this makes TMP no different than Buzzfeed or answers.com.

I prefer the Pendraken forum as my primary stop for hobby related news since I mainly game in 10mm.

Strangely the non-gaming stuff that Tango posts is what's interesting. Its when he posts gaming stuff that's too big to miss anyway, like the latest Perry plastics, or that's already on the front page when he posts, that's a bit irritating. I reckon the only site on the internet he doesn't actually read is TMP.
However he does find the proverbial acorn now and then, so I don't mind him.

Rarely dip into TMP and when I do, I know what your saying, guys, about Tango (I just ignore his stuff now). If not somehow done for monetary gain, it has crossed my mind that he means well, but is perhaps a type of personality that can't help himself and is naive or unaware of the negative effect of posting so prolifically.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

I find TMP really useful, though I make full use of the feature that allows you to only get feeds on the folders that interest you, plus I freely use the stifle / ignore features and imagine others do the same to me.

I enjoy the wargames website, though have never liked seeing TMP tantrums brought to that site by the few people who need to carry arguements over to other places. TMP is TMP and TMP business and posts are best left at TMP. Sorry if that sounds brusk, but there you are.

Nothing wrong with that, Norm.
Good post.

I have no problems with the arguments, as i djust don't read them. I don't post there either, just go there for info.

But you have to admit, a site that has to be shut down daily to update, there are much better platforms we can use now.
