Hi there,
I PM'ed the mod Warsman around a month ago now and he still hasn't got back to me...I clicked on his profile and he hasn't logged on since the 21st April?
I'm a new/returning member so if any one could help me out here that would be great? When I was a member on here a few years ago mods were online on a daily basis so just seems a bit odd...
Thanks!

I haven't seen him around for a long time. The board is close to dead which is a damn shame.

The board is close to dead which is a damn shame. Have patience  In short, it was just a message to find out what I'd missed over the last 5/6 years and how this website/forum did nowdays. What is the TWA and the 'territories'? What's the PFW? (mentioned in the discussion thread) Is WF.com still the main site for wrestling figure chat? Is the pic fed board on here still the main place for pic feds? Also, I'd read something on the discussion thread about an exodus of people on the pic fed forum and something to do with cliques? What's all this about? Thanks |

TWA & The Territories is a thing set up by the people who do "Old School" feds and they have a TWA champ and such like the old territory system.
PFW is a website set up by other members after the split happened (basically a fight between TWA & non TWA members)
There isn't really anywhere that is the main place anymore since everywhere is nearly dead as I said.

I think the exodus is probably due to a combination of people growing up, and ruling the chat thread with an iron fist. Heaven forbid people actually use a forum to talk to people...

I think the exodus is probably due to a combination of people growing up, and ruling the chat thread with an iron fist. Heaven forbid people actually use a forum to talk to people... Sad but true. With a lot of turmoil, but at the same time many new figures and lines being launched, you would have thought there would be a new generation, so to say, of Pic Feds, but this is getting stale as a 40 year old Twinkie. Our beloved Mod, Optimus Warsman seems to have slipped into the Odinsleep (damn, what a mix of cultural geek references in a single sentence), so we are pretty much a leaderless pack of Pic Fedders and Pic Fed followers right now.  |

I also don't think it helps how expensive figures are nowadays. I had a look the other day and they've doubled in price. Plus Mattel figures look like utter bollocks. It doesn't help either that the other boards are dead too. There's still stuff from March on the first page of the posing board. I have a feeling I might be looking at this through rose tinted glasses, but the community on here is nothing like it was in the good ol' days. |

chris, I'm sad. what happened to HLW image links? Ugh, I noticed that a couple of months ago. No idea why imageshack suddenly decided that every single image violated their TOS. Its either a glitch or something to do with hotlinking, but considering its a hosting website, it shouldn't be the latter. Still, its a good excuse for a redesign. hlw.freezoka.net/ Its gonna be a while until its finished though. |

I PM'd him around early-April and he never got back with me.
But, UWA Raw 2 is nearly completed. I have one more match to upload/add commentary for and then another segment or two. It's been a busy month for me, so I haven't got to work on the show hardly any at all. But, at least it's not all dead. lol there's still a few feds around. Mine, (UWA), WWEF, FIW, Ben's NWA and the TWA. Maybe it's just been tough getting to work on shows for everybody. I know it has been for me. Hopefully we'll get some new shows up soon!

What you could do is message a admin. The chat thread could be unlocked. Also, I messaged Warsman 1 month ago too and got no reply.

It's been locked two times that I know of, due to arguing. I hope that Wars is alright. It's very uncharacteristic of him to not reply and such. |

It breaks my heart when people talk about feds that are active and never mention ROP. Am I really that irrelevant these days?
