Personally, I think we should just let people express how they feel without someone questioning their fandom or their decency as a human being because they might express an opinion or emotion different from what you’ve thinking or feeling.
Is it a recent phenomenon where people literally get offended because someone disagrees with them. If you’re so weak in your opinions or in your sense of optimism that someone expressing a different opinion or pessimism effects you so badly that you have to lash out or belittle people for it, well, cut it out.
This forum is going downhill fast. Wet behind the ears mods are more worried about nonsense like trolling while turning a dead eye to how posters are treated and often piling on themselves for good measure.
I followed Miguel and “Patscap” here, so I’ve been kicking around here for a long time. I owe Ian and Patsfans debts I’ll never be able to pay, but this isn’t the same place, and I find that sad.
