I don't know why everything has to be so contentious. I like both sides! Here is nice to post about how much I hate what was done to the books, and there is nice to post about how much I like what they've done with the show. Can't we all be friends?

I considered working a very subtle spoiler into my new avatar, but felt it was amusing enough as is. Not that I'd post in that thread anyway. I still haven't even seen the first season!

Who the hell is so lazy they couldn't read 1 lovely book in the 10 months it's been between episodes? It's like people lamenting the wait for The Girl Who Farted on Dragons or the Hunger Games sequels. Just shut up and read the crappy trash fiction, you heathens. How much TVIV sucks: fans of Twilight didn't wait a year to find out the next part of the story from a movie/show. They read the books. Twilight fans are smarter and more cultured than TVIV.

Dead Man Posting posted:We literally got sniped on site whenever someone with a WILD CARDS gang tag went into the TVIV thread last year. Well, yeah, that's sort of it. I guess I don't understand the appeal of going into another thread just to spoil people. I don't disagree that there are uh, oversensitive people when it comes to what constitutes being spoiled and I don't think they help matters either, but sometimes people would do it for sport to people who just want to watch a (pretty good) TV show. It doesn't make sense to me why both sides can't leave each other alone to do what they do. Why must there be this war? Maybe GRRM has been foreshadowing the fight between internet threads about his books through his books. He's more of a wizard than I realized.

Nah we aren't going to war or anything about this, we just can't post in those threads without being probated/banned is all. Didn't they make a spoiler thread in TVIV last year? I thought they had two threads like the book barn does. You should be able to talk about the show in that thread when it's up (probably won't be made until the day of the premiere)

Eventually the threads will be united in hatred of the GRRM. We will defend against him behind the great paywall $10 high. Meanwhile, he will far away doing nothing of significance to the story. My god, you're right, he really did predict everything!

He will blow The Horn of Lowtax and tear down our paywall and then he will march south to Goons with Spoons to trade lemoncakes recipes, and post about the Giants in SAS.

We, as in the active posters in The Bad Thread, never actually did anything to the season 1 thread, but we got all the blame for it. Our thread got shut down, several of us put on month long probations, and yet the TVIV thread was still a hellhole.

Last season a bunch of Bad Thread posters made JOKES about ruining the show for the TVIV dweebs, and it was funny. Then some idiots who apparently lurked this thread or maybe just had similar ideas or something started actually trolling that thread, and all the Wildcards said "knock it the gently caress off dumb poo poo" but instead half of them got probated and the thread got closed two or three times. Also some TVIV people came into the Bad Thread to whine about people posting spoilers in their thread and then were SHOCKED I SAY when the Bad Thread was Bad. Which somehow also caused probation and poo poo even though this is a yes-spoilers thread and they went out of their way to click on it. It was all pretty lovely. Unrelated note, today's Cyanide and Happiness name drops Song of Icy Hot and also that Hunger Games thing you people were talking about. ~made me think of you~

I think Fog Tripper was the only real wildcard who hosed with the tviv thread. I know there was like, one guy and a few others who had tags but aren't bad thread regulars.

I don't think Fog Tripper was trolling, he just really hated the show. My favorite parts of season one were Bambi drama and Green_Buccanneer denying the Renly Is Gay subtext. Edit: oh and Sophia is there going to be a spoiler thread? I hope not because I'll end up reading it every week and all it ends up being is complaints, while the regular thread has all the newbie wide eyed wonder HOLKY gently caress going on and is much better. bigmcgaffney fucked around with this message at 20:55 on Mar 24, 2012 |

Fog Tripper posted:So, is Rarity Dr Thodt or Bambi? Neither. I think her and Sophia probably mean well, but Rarity is no Wild Card and Sophia doesn't seem to realize what happened last time that stupid show was on. The Wild Cards were nearly wiped out. But we rose again, better, stronger, and glistening even more wetly than ever!

Fog Tripper posted:So, is Rarity Dr Thodt or Bambi? Rarity is a nice person and has been around for awhile and can't possibly be either of those two because neither of them would ever be watching Pretty Little Liars religiously like we do. I like you Wild Cards, though I don't think I have the stones to be one of you, and I haven't ever reported anyone for anything in any of these crazy threads. I probably never will. But as a long-time ASOIAF book hater (still have not managed to make it through the entire series without giving up in disgust) I'm just hoping that people can have a nice time with a TV show that I actually liked. We are good-intentioned, I promise.
