Title: Saber Addiction / Intervention / Support :D
Post by: Thnkswckd on August 02, 2019, 07:13:25 PM
Are You Addicted? (The first step is admitting you have a problem)

Do others think you have a problem?  (Other than your Saber Friends)

Do you need encouragement? (Wow That was a Great Purchase)

So This Is The Place for YOU!!!!

Addiction (will only be encouraged)
Intervention (suggestions for modifications)
Support (You should get another / Best Saber Ever!!!!)

its just for a laugh and enjoyment :D

 I had to! He said pusher. That song is kind of dark and does not convey how I feel about Ultrasabers.
The pusherman, that is closer to how I think of Ultrasabers.

This thread should also support those of us addicted to making sound fonts. It is the next step of the addiction as far as I can tell.

This nearly a couple years old, so I kind of hate my editing skills, camera, dueling quality and the ugly old studio compared to my more recent work. However, it does touch on the serious issue addressed on this thread starting around the 2 min point. And yes, 2 years later most everyone interviewed has SEVERAL more sabers.

Eleven sabers here. When I shop for my twelfth saber, I have this song in my head. Just change the words from kiss to Saber, and love to UltraSabers.
 This is what plays in my head...

It's just too bad Ultrasabers doesn't sell a saber called the Oblivion.
 "Oblivion is all you crave."

 I look forward to your review.

"You might as well face it you're addicted to love Ultrasabers!"

That's why I made my decision to have US craft the lightsabers I wanted, then looked at specs vs price and saw I could afford diamond, so I kept doing that. Not saying a Mystery Box isn't fun: having the box get delivered and seeing what my luck brought me was always neat - I just decided that the lightsabers on my wish list really deserved to be built with the best parts available.

While I have given up on both Mystery Boxes and Grab Bags, I am, most assuredly, an addict.
When one is buying or making sabers to fit specific characters, it's usually a sign of what some might call addiction.
I have over a dozen sabers, and have taken a few out of my collection over the couple of years I've been doing this.
Definitely an addict.
Also not looking for intervention

ok now I don't feel as bad lol

I Bought my first mystery box back in mid July a grab bag a week or so later. then my raffle entry last week. my 3rd saber is being delivered Thursday. 3 sabers in under a month.

Trust me I want MORE...The Mrs said I have enough for now!  the key words I heard "for now" sounds like an opening to me :)


Title: Re: Saber Addiction / Intervention / Support :D
Post by: Malik Thanewulf on August 14, 2019, 02:05:04 AM
As a person with 16 or 17 sabers and counting, I'd say that is definitely an opening for more. Just space them out. Maybe just get 1 per raffle. Then, you can save $$$ for it an have a specific saber built, the exact way you want it. 


Title: Re: Saber Addiction / Intervention / Support :D
Post by: Malik Thanewulf on August 14, 2019, 10:59:16 AM
Actually, I think once I get the rest of the sabers on my wishlist, I'm pretty much done. ( maybe the Catalyst too) Unless Ultrasabers comes up with something new that  screams, "add me to your collection". I've actually made gifts of 3 of my sabers ( following the lead of a few forum members). That felt good. I'll just enjoy having them. See, I can quit whenever I want..............

I've actually received my purchases for the raffle, but was not feeling well to make an unboxing video. I'll be posting pics though since they do look quite nice.

1)  Sorry you're not feeling well. Hope you get to feeling better soon.
2)  WE WANT PICS!
3)  Maybe when you're feeling better, you can do a video review without the unboxing, because we like video reviews, too.


Title: Re: Saber Addiction / Intervention / Support :D
Post by: Therion Jinn on August 21, 2019, 02:40:56 AM
Some of us much prefer skipping the unboxing and going straight to the reviews.

Hello everyone.  My name is KaiserSosay and I'm a saber addict...

 It has been six months since my last purchase and I thought I was doing really good. But the craving has remained.  It's been getting harder the past couple weeks. With the mid winter give away ending soon,  I've come here tonight looking for the "support" of the community.
    The craving to buy the new saber I want is so overwhelming. The idea of getting some free sabers with the purchase is just to much to resist. I know if I wait the give away will end in five days. Things should get easier for me then, but right now it's really hard. I need help...
 






 Should I get a diamond Flamberge or the Renegade?
Does anybody have both and a preference of one over the other?

 I hear ya! That's the only reason it has been six months for me.  I didn't have the funds.
  Now I can't decide.  Which saber to get? Should I wait for a raffle or sale? I keep going back and forth on both questions.

They say the first step in recovery is admitting you have a problem.  In that spirit...

I don't have a problem.  I can stop whenever I want.  I don't have a lot of sabers.  Sure, I have another six on order but that is just a little social saber collecting.
