    Nominating this one: 170 posts in 10 hours flat. A game goes up for sale, and BOOM.

    Got another one!!!

    So...why do all the guys with pinball machines get the girls?

    In this thread, well....

    https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/why-do-pinball-guys-all-get-girls

    I think I counted 250+ posts in under 24 hours.

    Got a new addition:

    After this, well, I don't think Treasurecove's reputation will ever be quite the same...!

    Anddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd.... another contender!!! OP buys a $9000 ASLE for $8300 and then refuses to accept the game when the box has damage to it, and somehow at first, it was all Stern's fault.

    Get your popcorn folks, this was a good one:

    Quoted from cosmokramer:

    I have to bump this again, the thread was great when it was originally listed here...but if you have not checked out the last week or so you have really missed some of the most creative postings ever seen on pinside...

    This will be Pinside thread of the year. It has transcended the "JD is a $1400 game folks" influence. I'm blown away how much we are seeing "imamaculate" on Pinside now. Many avatars have been changed, gifs out the ass, and more alien faces than an X-Files marathon. In some ways, this thread has changed Pinside for good.

    And we wonder why women almost never post on Pinside.

    The sheer amount of cringe here:

    Guy in the last year has gone from cancer to a heart attack to preemptively selling off his collection to pay for his undiagnosed Coronavirus treatment. All results in a Gofundme account and some doubters.

    HFS. I'm glad I miss that asteroid of a fuckfest.

    Here's one much shorter and man, you could tell this one had potential....

    Quoted from Atari_Daze:

    Holy S, I need to start staying up late, I missed the fun!
    What do the kids say these days, 'well that escalated quickly.'

    They've degraded into single-syllable words like "Bruh". Can't even can't go a "bro" now.

    Damn, man. One more and he would have had a hat trick!!

    If you ever wanted to see Pinside at its nuttiest, this thread has it all. Should practically be a mandatory read for new members here to see what some people are really like behind their keyboards:

    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.

    Dude, he HAD to know that was coming. I mean, dang, it was incessantly CONSTANT through the years.

    YES. What a classic.

    Guy doesn't get a topper from distributor. Guy tells the whole story. Distributor comes on and owns the mistake.

    From there, typical Pinside about prices, supply and demand, COVID, bitching at each other, and somehow a wife getting donkey-punched.

    This place never lets me down.

    Being banned from TPF as a tournament player and a vendor somehow leads to discussions on misogyny, pedophiles, Kermit memes, and furries turning boys into girls or girls into boys or something...I dunno....

    Pinside is on dumpster fire lately with best of thread nominees!!!

    Got one in the making. Hopefully, the OP will get all poo poo face and bring the heat with his passive aggressive banter!

    https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/for-sale-metallica-premium-5

    *** EDIT - In a great twist, the OP doesn't even know what edition game he has as he tries to charge $15000 OBO in June 2022 for a game paid at most $8800 for in January 2022.

    Thread starts with OP wondering where Yelobird went, and accusations fly like eagles, people are owed explanations, business is getting lost, people might be dead, conspiracy theories take whole pinball business down, then somehow Deeproot gets brought up, yet again we are all reminded that start-up companies take our money and leave us hanging, and people with deep pockets start arguing over morale value, 20/20 hindsight and accusations everywhere!! High horses and judgment abound - THIS is Pinside at its finest where everyone has to have the last word and piggy-backing knows no bounds.

    Quoted from punkin:

    If you think that ugly pustule is one of the best threads ever on pinside, you are here for different reasons than me. Pretty sure it wasn't robin s vision when he created this site.
    Brawl Hall is where you should be hanging.

    I want to know how to maximize my how much money I could make and came to ask you idiot assholes if you'd pay more for a game NIB or out of box but with mods. Got to protect my investment.

    And working is for suckers.

    Someone goes trying to speculative sell his spot for a Pulp Fiction LE - $2500 OVER the MSRP price once fully delivered. It is quite a shock when the community collectively tells him to go fuck himself.

    Beat your kids, light your house on fire, tell Tim how to run his business, let your kids do whatever they want, no yelling, get baked, have some Febreeze sprayed on you, it's everyone's fault your kids are out of control, and today's kids are so thoughtful, caring, and promising for this country's future!!!
