Also, I think that it is silly to be mad that you hear people complain about R1 companies so much here because this is an ANIME board. I don't see people complaining about that stuff in the video game forums.

And you shouldn't assume that people buy stuff JUST to impress their friends... I think it is fun to show off collections. I mean you posted a pic of YOUR collection, wasn't that done in the spirit of showing off in a good way?? It is no different than showing your collection to a buddy.

p.s.: congrats on your modship at AN. obviously you are too cool to pm me back...:p

I didn't get mad at them for complaining about the R1 companies. But the things that alot of various HK forum members complain about makes no sense. You can't blame any company for trying to maximize profits. You can't get mad at a company for trying to protect their interest. You can't get mad at a company because they did what's in their best interest, or in the best interest of the majority of their consumers instead of doing what is in your best interest. That has nothing to do with R1 compnaies, but just general business sense.

I wasn't assuming anything. He listed as one of his cons, that basically the Hk's make his collection look smaller if friends were to come over and look at it. So obviously, that is a factor to him since he's thought about it.

And no, I didn't post the pics to 'show off' my collection. Someone asked for a pic and I posted it. I collect for myself, not for anyone else. Honestly, I hate it when people try showing off their stuff. They do that at the AoD forums all the time. Bunch of fuckin' snobs showing off how much money they waste on anime each month.

Thanks I guess. I didn't really have anything to PM you back with other than 'thanks', so I didn't. Being a mod there is kinda boring though, since there's not much for me to mod.
