Some amazingly mature and intelligent replies here.... Thank you all who contributed. Really some amazing stuff... really have a way of making a new guy feel welcome. Thanks for stopping by.
The forum doesn't take kindly (in fact rather the opposite) to new folks showing up and immediately going into buy, buy, buy mode. They've been burned by a number of groups. Stick around and talk about what you like about these games and participate. Talk about Why Turbo's Better?
So I need to attest to my undying love to the Turbo gods before I can be ushered into this elite circle?
I don't mind be razzed but out right making fun of someone because of lack of following some invisible guideline is silly and childish.
For the record I've been an avid collector since I was 14, had a substantial library until one day it magically disappeared from my parents place during a party. Anything else you'd like to know please feel free to make fun of me at your own expense.
