if people don't want this discussion to keep coming up, stop engaging with the wwe watchers, the wwe threads and wwe news in general. Hate posting about the company and scolding people isn't healthy isnt and isnt helping.

If you see someone going "Troy McFrappe vs Apollo Crews on NXT was alright' you don't need to respond to dunk on them. Getting that easily gotten to that you have to post because you see people posting as trolling bait means trolls see you as easy targets and won't stop.

Majority of the posts is the same people making up posters and people to get mad at and if they actually stopped caring about instead of posting about how much they don't care about wwe, wwe discussion and the subforums target for trolling should die down.

You don't have to like every subject or have an interest in every promotion or even like every poster on this subforum, but if someone is a long time poster elsewhere or even a mildly normal seeming new poster that doesn't have a real rapsheet of being a piece of poo poo the goal of this subforum shouldn't be an insular clubhouse and to run them off because they maybe watched wwe during the attitude era and only checks out the wrestling because it's rumble or mania season. Either ignore them or try having an actual conversation with the people to see if you can get them to try watching something else that's good.

that's what been happening in general?

read the last few pages of the wwe thread, there's a new viewer getting bombarded with recommendations of good wrestling

here's the question https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=0&threadid=4029137&pagenumber=938&perpage=40#post538895329

it's even a question that's hostile to AEW

People were nice to Hootington when the gimmick was "I just watch old WCW and now I'm looking at modern WWE a little bit"


Regular posters tend to respond with hostility to reheated Cornette takes from blow-through clip watchers or "and yet you are the hypocrite!!??" defences

See it's fine to say wwe is bad beuacse 99.9% of it is but if you feel the need to come in the threads and the only contribution is eating the bait eat my fuc or confronting someone even more harmless then what's the point of posting in the thread besides to cause more dumb aggro posting and whatever actual trolling to continue

i have a feeling that the last 40-50 mentions of "rape company" have been people arguing about saying rape company. just not sure what people really are wanting to change from how things actually are. please be careful. i'm scared. hey nice post above

Yes that interaction of recommending stuff was good and one of the few times I thought the wwe thread actually did something productive and interesting.

With Hootington his sincere posts seemed fine and i don't think he overstepped until recently. but if he's been trolling this whole time by just saying "idk I thought smackdown was good" and that irritated some people to post stuff like "glad you can enjoy the rape factory slop but I've got morals" then that's the tamest bait I've seen and shows how easily gotten to people are in this forum when confronted with the tamest take about wwes product and not the company and owners

i checked it out everyone. i did owe it to you to do that after making a guess about the term "rape company." and i admit that i was wrong because i saw those guys saying rape company and i understand things a little better. i'll trade you the lives of those 2 guys for the lives of my 2 guys that i don't like what they say and find it to be horrible for our home here. i await a counter-offer

The wrestling thread in GBS is mostly a history lesson on weird poo poo and an AEW current events thread. It's definitely not very friendly to Vince, but there are some questionable effort posters.

these days it just always feels like, theres this stranger with a fishing pole down at the old neighborhood pond, which is very small and stocked with fish that are few and sickly. and he's got this top-of-the-line pole and bait empowered by cutting edge technology so its clearly not just confused hobo, and so i am all hey there's like no fish in there, and they just look at me with this knowing smile.
