Sucks man. Was it insured?

Just wondering, that's all. Seems like a lot of bad shit happens down in TX on a regular basis. People post here all the time about crazy stuff going on down there. Mostly crime and violent crime. Didn't mean to offend an entire state.
I stopped wondering what happened to the BBB 6 or 7 pages ago. The OP doesn't care enough to update us, so I stopped caring about his game.
Lotta threads on here these days gets bled dry with speculation because there isn't enough actual factual information. I get a little impertinent when I'm bored. Sorry.
Quoted from Mr68:Don't bother. More and more TheFamilyArcade has become a troll around here. On variety of issues.
It's practically impossible to be a troll on Pinside. After 3 pages or so of ANY thread, there's almost nothing you could post that would actually stand out as being "trollish". Let's see, in this one we've had castration, death penalty for theft. Implication of "guns for hire" (placing a hit?). Massive speculation on whether this is a hoax, who did what how and why. If people are actually reading these Pinside "drama threads" with a straight face they're missing the point these days. IMHO.
Quoted from vid1900:I would not mind living in Austin. It always seems pretty hip when I go there.
I like the taco trucks there. Austin is kinda hip. Hip isn't how I'd describe most of TX. But I'm not a hipster anyway. I'd probably choose Austin for the political breadth...but that's not anything we can discuss on Pinside. So let's just use the code word "hip" from now on. Just like people use the term "interesting types" to describe the denizens of MLK blvd.
Quoted from PinballManiac40:This thread is only 2 days old, not a year old. Police investigations take time.
Nearly 3 days. It would be nice if the OP got back on here to say "thanks for the support folks" ... It's a police matter now, can't say much". So he's busy and doesn't live on Pinside, but expecting an update isn't asking for much.
Quoted from beelzeboob:We here in Jersey feel the same way about New York. And I'd rather live in Texas than in Jersey. So hey...that's saying something.
Great BBQ, the Dallas Cowboys, and Schlitterbahn Waterpark. What's not to love?
There are people who don't like NY? That's absurd! Now you're trolling!
The whole idea of it being stolen by someone that know you is unsettling. I've had a few Pinside parties where I've invited Pinside people I've never met into my home to play pinball. I'd hate to think that someone would target me after that. But that's just life I guess, and we can't live in fear.
Hope the OP is having some luck and gets his game back. And that the the culprits to to jail.

Then again, I own Avengers, and who'd steal that? People probably just feel sorry for me, and move on to to the next pinsiders house.
Quoted from spfxted:Er, Nelson, when are you going on vacation?....just curious...
i'm on vacation now! Sitting in the dark corner of my basement, aiming a double ought six at the door.
Quoted from zr11990:Funny, because everyone else in the group is looking around at the others and thinking the same thing.
Uhhhh no. If you do not live here you have no idea. 50% of these people have no idea what a bath is and still throw shitty toilet paper on the floor. They have no earthly idea of personal space and will squeeze in right on top of you and they smell like ass. Another 20% are ghetto monkeys with their pants dragging the ground. You get there at 7AM and are lucky to leave by 12 or 1 PM and that is if you have a lawyer. But when you have 2 sets of 3 tickets you have no choice. I would rather sit through the hell than pay the bastards
"ghetto monkeys"?
Quoted from creyes82:blockquote cite="#1892548">"ghetto monkeys"?
What he really wants to say is (snip) but he is trying not to look like a full on un-pc redkneck. Last time he said something like this he said personal problems were making him unfriendly.
Post edited by moderator: Edited.
He asked me why I wouldn't want to live in Texas. Maybe one reason is because I'm far more likely to hear a comment like that in Texas than in New York.
Quoted from RobT:Wow. I saw all the news posts since I last visited the thread, so I thought maybe we had a big development and they found the BBB.
Instead I see a bunch of edited posts and allegations of racist posts being made.
"Oh Pinside"
Allegations?
Quoted from RobT:I didn't see the posts since they were edited you dufus. So yes, allegations.
Watch the name calling counselor. It's unbecoming. But you have a point...I guess I'll just read every thread two or three times to see if all the stupid stuff gets edited out or censored. Perhaps I'll find that many of your posts have been excised?
