It looks like the chain of command went down, and nobody wanted to take charge.Personally, vendor/writer, average gamer, crippled shrew or what-not, if the guy had sent me to the end of the line, I'd have kept right on going to the house. There's other places besides GenCon.The rudeness you guys ran into was unacceptable in any circumstances. It's not like you were rioting, prisoners, or draftees. One guy on a table "I'm not taking any crap!" and another sending people back the back of the line. What, is it gradeschool.It's incompetance and rudeness like that that is hurting images, making people tired of going to conventions, and fun stuff like that.Hopefully, at GenCon SoCal, things won't be this bad. I plan on volunteering, and luckily, my brain functions.That, and if the line is too long, I'll take the kids to Disneyland.Yes, I understand, untested and unstressed system.That's no excuse.Volunteers unfamiliar with what to do.That's no excuse.Were not expecting the biggest gamer's convention in North America to have that many people.That's a crappy excuse.Martian's landed and shot everyone with thier ray-guns, and took all the women back to Phobos to join thier leather clad armies.That's an excuse.Now I'm glad I didn't go. I'm all crippled up, my wife has bad hips, and if I had stood in line longer than an hour, I'd have been at Hooters swilling down Hefe Wiessen before you could say "Worst Con Ever!"Personally, it sounds like it's a shame that a lot of people had what should have been a lot of enjoyment ruined by incompetance and rudeness.And yes, I can talk crap. I've helped organize and run major events.</blockquote>
