Less than Super Ostrich Posted August 29, 2004 Posted August 29, 2004 isnt it about time we took this info thread down (or at least unpin it). Its like 2 years old now. Quote
Grayson72 Posted August 29, 2004 Posted August 29, 2004 Agree with you on that one, just delete the thing. Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 The reason it got pinned is that we got near-weekly posts asking about the Legioss. As far as I've seen, it's done a great job deterring the same questions from being asked over and over. Quote
Pat S Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Could Graham update the actual page the info is on and state that the project was cancelled, then free up room for stickies by removing this one??? Quote

spellbinder99 Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 As a new member I have to agree. If the problem was people asking about a project that is ON THE FRONT PAGE, then why not remove THAT info? Stop the problem at source, is all I am saying. Cheers Tony Quote

wm cheng Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Hey, if it frees up room for stickys does that mean someone could sticky my build-up threads (at least the pointers to my build-up threads... which I've been politely asking for the last year?) http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=691 I still get weekly PMs about where to find my older build-ups! I don't mind - love the interest, but its answering the same questions over and over again. I'll update this thread whenever I get a new build-up or photos of my models... Quote
captain america Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/_main_menu.htm The upper right-hand corner box clearly says "project canceled"... And yet people still ask me when it's going to be available Quote
Mechamaniac Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Did you at least finish that project for yourself John? Even if it will never be available, some of us (who lack modelling skills) would love to see even pics of a completed version that you kept only for yourself. Quote
captain america Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 All of the sculpting was finished a while back, but the only way to truly "finish" it was to mold everything and cast it. I just don't have time for that in the forseeable future. Quote
pfunk Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 one day, i dont care if I'm 80 What projects you got in the works lately John? Quote
captain america Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 one day, i dont care if I'm 80 What projects you got in the works lately John? As of this week, I'm tasking myself with the finished Macross Valkyrie booster, as well as plotting some initial drafts of the launch vehicle. In between those two, I have to work on a second-generation design of my firearms project... My life is like a never-ending arts & crafts session Quote
Less than Super Ostrich Posted August 31, 2004 Author Posted August 31, 2004 I think the "ayes" have it. Unpin the thread. Quote

I just don't have time for that in the forseeable future. So send it to Jesse, he'll do it, he'll cast anything. Hey what firearms project, care to share details and pics, love to see any of your models. Quote
captain america Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Unfortunately, I can't share any photos or diagrams of my firearms projects, as they are still development prototypes and haven't been patented yet. Legioss: aside from the obvious casting hurdle(metal parts, not just resin), I'm simply not anxious for another potentially messy showdown with Harmony Gold's legal arm. I tend to like the position I'm in now with the booster project, where I'm simply a subcontractor for a firm operating outside of HG's jurisdiction. Simpler for me. Quote
Grayson72 Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Oh! didn't realize it was an actual firearm, thought it was just a for fun kind of a thing. Quote
jontom Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 bump no really, let's at least move it. Quote
EXO Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 just leave it... the fact that we haven't seen a thread for 2 years before this one means it's working... Quote
Less than Super Ostrich Posted September 28, 2004 Author Posted September 28, 2004 just leave it... the fact that we haven't seen a thread for 2 years before this one means it's working... are you kidding me? Who even remembers this project anymore? Its dead... its dead. When John rebirths it... he'll tell us. Makes more sense to pin the booster thread than that one. Quote
cobywan Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 Every person who learns of Macross World is greeted with the Legioss project on the main front page. So it's right there for everyone to be curious about. Unpin it if you like. But if another question pops up I would suggest it stay up forever. Quote

Who even remembers this project anymore? Its dead... its dead. When John rebirths it... he'll tell us. Makes more sense to pin the booster thread than that one. It's not there to remind people that already know about it. It's to keep the endless questions about the status of a dead project. If they took it off the front page then maybe they should unpin it. I don't understand why it bugs people so much... if you don't like it, just ignore it... it's not keeping anything from getting pinned. Quote
Less than Super Ostrich Posted September 28, 2004 Author Posted September 28, 2004 You know... you're right. I should just ignore it. Me aculpa. I thought it would just clean up the boards. And you're right, I have no idea why its still on the front page. Quote
