legitimately there are problems with aew and not all the booking is good or makes sense, and i have no qualms about people saying so. i just thought it was odd people were saying stuff like it was the worst show they've done like an hour and a half into it. i totally get that things are at a weird nadir though, and i'll try not to be as flippant in the future.

That's not how people work, or at least, it's not how the people here work. The former group feels betrayed by the thing and annoyed that their feelings aren't being taken seriously by the latter group and the latter group is annoyed that the former group keeps trying to piss all over their good time and appears to exist in a completely alternate reality from them. It is just not a situation that's going to lead to positive interactions.

Do think AEW Mecca thread need thicker skin. genuinely dont remember when people still posted about WWE if posters ever complained enough to make a separate thread when people didnt like other parts of the show, people just rolled with the posts and discussed the shows. Maybe that was the Randy Orton Man Love Lockerroom, i dont know

the problem with slop is that everyone has a different definition of what tastes bad and what doesn't I just saw a guy let another person's blood drain into his mouth then he misted it like the great muta and although in text it sounds rad as gently caress and people seemed to love it - that particular slop wasn't for me I don't want that slop to stop being served in the cafeteria for those who enjoy it though. I'll just slide my tray to the next pot of slop that I do enjoy and ask for a double helping instead of trying to get the whole place shut down for a health code violation

Thanks for your thoughtful response, I appreciate you speaking up to add that context. The remarks I chose weren't meant to denigrate the entire histories of the posters they belonged to, so I apologize for making it seem as though that was the case.

AEW threads have the opposite energy where if people say they think something sucked everyone got mad at them for not liking everything to the point the more vocal group have a new thread to post in

But creating interthread drama with a thread dedicated to making GBS threads on people that aren't 110% positive about every aspect of a promotion is incredibly toxic and doesnt help whatever conceived forum wars or clique gang thing people keep saying exists on this subforum which is the problem we've been dealing with

I don't think any of those posts are probe-worthy because if being Slightly Obnoxious earned probations there'd probably be a lot more and that's currently not really my style  . I just think talking about wrestling is fun and some people get really personal instead of either talking normally about things you like or dislike (which there was plenty of that - I've been having some good conversations since last night, even in the GDT proper) or someone has decided that a bunch of anonymous folks on the internet are Specifically Out To Kill You Via Firing Squadit's not really a simple thing but at the end of the day it's literally posting online about a TV show. So much is solved by simply Scrolling Faster and ignoring things that make you mad. Hate-reading is bad for the heart
