Problems with soft cases?

I know this has probably been asked before but has anyone who's ever used a soft case have any problems with them in the past? Is it technically bad to lean a soft case up against the wall because of the lack of support inside? Any issues with warping over prolonged use? I mean I don't really think I'd ever just throw my case around so is it really a bad idea to use a soft case? Thanks for any replies.
 
Most decent soft cases have enough padding to protect your cues from regular wear and tear and being thrown around (although I wouldn't throw my cues around much, even with a hard case).

I would just avoid checking it in on flights and leaving it in places where fatties might sit on it.

If it is a good quality soft case you should be fine. Some of the very cheap cases have no padding at all. I think the style case I have attached gives those ridiculous heave clunky leather cases the 5 ball. They are really classy and don't cost $350.00

Sorry dude... just to be clear, I was just joking and didn't mean to offend those who actually do enjoy having fatties sit on their cues.

I like those cases, I had one my self for about 4 years, still looks new. I have 3 Cues in it. (play, break, jump).
 
I've been using a Porper VIP ase for the last 7 years or so and never had a problem, although it is not technically a completely soft case because it has semi-hard sides.
