    Quoted from Toymaker:

    One thing I am noticing is alot of complaints about all the "new" buyers coming out of the year of COVID and the stupid prices as a result.

    Stick with Facebook pinball groups instead of Pinside and you'll read a LOT less complaining and probably have more interesting conversations with real people versus guys using an Avatar/handle. The reality is, the FB groups are usually self-moderated and price policing, complaining in general, etc, is greatly reduced.

    Quoted from Palmer:

    Facebook groups are the worst.

    Maybe some are, but of course some aren't. The ones I'm part of are just fine from what I read and see. I don't care what platform anyone uses, I'm not making $$ of my suggestion.

    Newbies think that having the movie scenes added to the Jurassic Park pin make the game complete and think Stern should've had those repetitive, grainy, 1993 VHS scenes on the LCD.

    Quoted from CrazyLevi:

    We was all took by the phony troll OP on this one!!!
    Can we get some real, actual noobs up in here with horror stories about how terribly they've been treated by all the hardened vets around here?

    One of my first posts on Pinside was me telling the story of how I found a Transformers on the boardwalk to play; I played it and thought it was a "dog". It was a recent new game at the time.

    Holy shit, the idiots around here got their pitchforks out as if I said they all have ugly children.

    Still a buncha thin-skinned guys around here who can dish it out when complaining, but raise hell if you don't enjoy a game they own. All these years later, turns out I was right that Transformers sucks.
