This one is shaping up to be a good one

A thread that went immediately off the rails...

Maybe not real funny or exciting to read, but...
This is Pinside!
Someone trying to build an addams from scratch, pinsiders all gather to help with tips and how to!
This is why pinside rules!
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/addams-family-scratch-build
Will he/she succeed?
Fingers crossed
Starts with a trade gone wrong, everyone (buyer, seller, Pinside itself, etc.) at fault, becomes a NJ thing, spare parts discussion occurs, then somehow tax evasion and a new argument between other pinsiders who are not the OP starts up......
It's really marvelous and a beautiful example of why some people just should not post or at least not while they're at work.

The Otaku Collection. It chronicles the sad flamout of an enthusiastic collector who was a little too big for his own breeches and burned a few too many bridges along the way.

Otaku took his show on the road, to KLOV, and a reprise of the Pinside performance took place. I've included a KLOV thread as I think crazylevi is at his outlaw best when he posted there. Otaku changed his name to "Interlock" on KLOV if you are following along.
Is this how Otaku acted here? = https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/is-this-how-he-acted-here

These were good and this could be added as the next chapter. It's worth the read!

Be warned, there are a couple of posters (well it's really only one but multiple accounts) in there who are very long winded!
This thread is a great trip down memory lane:

Only Vid could return after a two year hiatus to share how he removed a pinball from a puppy that was supposed to be someone’s lunch.

A Pinsider starts a thread soliciting opinions on what pin to buy then cant answer simple questions about a rare pin he once owned. With broken and bare minimum "Engrish" he eventually gets thrown out of his own thread and the topic is closed.

The same guy also thought it be funny to troll people on leaked GnR photos before the topic is closed.

Wow. Missed that one. What an ass. I hate people that type and don’t know how to spell. Or use abbreviations like “u”.
Because typing two more letters is really a strain.
And there is no way in hell that guy owns a Bigfoot.

U hate that? I hate that 2.
Quoted from PismoArcade:"K" drives me nuts.
Hitting that "O" before is just too time consuming, I guess.
You know what I'm dying to do, right?

Ugh...typing an email or in a thread like you are texting is the worst. I have someone that does it at work and its so unprofessional especially when its a supervisor.
you know what's worse typing? typing in a thread and signing the bottom of your post like it's a formal letter! (your name is the FIRST THING on every single post

Nice!!!!! I’m not sure what else could be done to that game. Glad to see it’s in good hands.
Quoted from mof:Clicking on this exclusive thread USED to mean, seeing new "best of pinside" threads
Not always. There's some pretty fucking ordinary links in here.
Some people think arguing and bitching is best of.
In the spirit of this thread, I respectfully ask we keep it clear of banter (I’m guilty too).
Just the good stuff only please.

Robin has locked this due to OP's request. Someone should create a new thread so all of OSOA's victims have one thread to discuss if they were made whole instead of numerous threads

Definitely needs a new thread. Once it falls off the front page, its out of the spotlight and he can keep on stealing from new people to pay the old ones. This is of great importance to the community.

Wow. Never seen Robin get so many downvotes. I understand why, though.
