Thread about something fandom specific

Oh, I know. How about I make a complaint about something related to this work that I like. I'm sure that less than a majority of the posts will be people derailing the topic to talk about how much they dislike the work.

For fuck's sake, I don't go into loli threads and shit all over your discussion.

    The thread you're talking about isn't fandom specific at all.  It's just "IJBM: Sometimes websites have downtime".

    ^^^Why did half the thread derail into "Oh I don't like MLP and you can't make me like it."? It's something we've been over already.

    If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    Because the responses to said comments were antagonistic themselves.
  • BobBob
    While I apologize for the part I played in the thread (didn't really mean for it to be taken seriously), I will say that the fact that we have, like, 5 new pony / loli threads being made a day irk me.
  • DYREDYRE
    Because it needed to derail into something.

    It had no real means of discussion. It had to derail into something, else there'd be no discussion -shrug-

    Context for those uninterested in ponies and/or lolis?

    EDIT: Oh, wait, I missed the ponibooru thread.
  • BobBob
    Derail, eh?

    I have no interest in lolis and have nothing to say about them, so I don't go into loli threads. I thought that was just basic courtesy.

    ... Do you even go to this site? Like, at all?

    How is that even a response? Gelzo is not complaining about people criticizing the show, he's complaining about people shitting on a thread about a topic they didn't care about.

    People on this site do not exactly have a habit of staying out of threads they do not like. At least, not on the first page of the thread.

    OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    ^That's not exactly a good thing. Even the rules would appear to indicate so.
  • NoimportaNoimporta
    1c. It's okay if a thread goes off-topic naturally, but do not derail it intentionally, even if you don't like the topic.

    4c. If you don't like a thread, and have nothing meaningful to add to it, don't post in it.

    Glenn's words, not mine.

    Yup. Going through and thumping now. I think that's the... second strike against me now. Dammit.
  • ClockworkUniverseClockworkUniverse

    Eh, it's not just you. I think the entire mod team, myself included, needs to think about those rules more. They haven't come up much, even when they needed to.

    You can change. You can.
    That said, I wish that this place didn't turn into a confrotational fandom thing. I mean:

    People who like lolicon but hate MLP have no taste anyway, so I certainly don't care what you think. 

    Was that even necessary? I don't care for both of them, so why do I have to see pony fans and loli fans hiss at each other like 5 year olds on a playground?

    I was more put off by the same person that posted that to later start advocating lolis.

    I mean, just, what?

    DERP

    I advocated what now?

    ...really? Ninjaclown only posted once in that thread.

    ...

    And guess who lives up to his name...
  • DYREDYRE
    Yeah, what?

    ...Shit, I mistook you for TMA. Sorry. :<
