Keiralee, darlin', I agree with them. This is how MX has ALWAYS worked. You can be 'mean' to people, really. They rather had it coming.
(That said, keep standing up for them. I don't agree with it, but I really want you to keep standing up for them. They're your friends, you're a good friend. Even if we don't agree with you.... at least, I can respect that, even if I don't like them.)
No offense but you make them sound a bit like dogs...
We have been nice. Or at least I hadn't automatically gone, "ZOMG I FUKIN HATE UUUU" when I first saw them. But after a while they got annoying and the annoying turned into hate. I respect you for standing up for them and all but that thread meant a lot to me. Having it spammed with random crap... hurts. And by the age of the thread surely they could tell that some people were going to be pissed off.
@Keiralee -- Being mean to people. SO much worse. Some people could be brutal, but there was usually reason behind it.
@Xuut and Devil's -- I'm not disagreeing with you. I completely agree with what you're saying... I'm not saying you were being mean without reason, sorry. That's now how I meant it.
It isn't adding to the thread, it is spam. They're n00b/trolls who seemingly want attention and it annoys me. Finally, the thread is one of the oldest, it's lovely, nice, there's a point to it. It's horrid to see these newer people just coming in and destroying it's name, and too, kinda degrading the thread, idea, and those who signed it. It isn't nice to see, so of course we're going to have issue with it.
All we ask is that they /go/ to those better/other places to spam/troll, and leave the threads that we actually give a damn about, alone unless they're adding to them.
