Well, it depends on whether you’re standing in front of someone, or behind, typically.
That said,
Welcome to the “active” side of LSC, and thank you for the heads up about the domes. I was looking through the new parts list with similar ideas of kitbashing in mind, and would have likely made the same mistake – you’ve probably saved me an expensive lesson. I suspect parts now from Philladelpha will be somewhat like parts before … only with more and varied parts, and a web interface to place the order, which experience teaches us means: Be prepared to be VERY specific about what you need, and even then don’t count on getting what you wanted. Shame, that.
As to the rest of it… you will find here, like any other forum, that a high “Squelch” setting, and perhaps a pair of Peril Sensitive Sunglasses will help a great deal.
And, for the rest of the community reading this:
I’ve seen Josh post in other forums for some time now, and I’m surprised there’s a contingent here who have never heard of him under one name or the other … he’s the kind of skilled modeler and has a background in prototype knowledge that would make him a valueable asset in both the model making and prototype research department. His intensity, dare we say, “enthusiasm” for high quality and high fidelity in modeling combined with an unusually colorful vocabulary might occasionally put off the uninitiated … but how many more of us found here would fit that bill?
Then again, Josh, I’m not sure my endorsement will get you many votes. I think I’m friends with all the wrong people too. But, as Ben Franklin said "“We must, indeed, all hang together, or most assuredly we shall all hang separately.” Here you can have all the noose that’s fit to print.
