I used to post comments against the way certain character's did or did not do things, about my disappointment at the story trends, etc. Until a new group of posters came on. A group who saw nothing right about anything, but who posted so often among themselves that they almost succeeded in sinking what was intended to be a fan forum. Some fan forum. I was here from almost the beginning and most of the original fans have stopped commenting. The loudest, most negatives voice prevail now. And those voices are mean-spirited.
So I have decided to aim a few parting shots at them as I leave the field. I have already moved on because Grimm is over, but the camaraderie that used to be present around here has long disappeared and a new and uglier order has been established.
You know, I tried to stay out of this, but this is a new low for you. By the way, this argument of yours is nothing new. A year ago I heard from another poster, the long and sad tale of woe about all of the posters who left because of a few miscreants.
Well, I have news for you. It's not true. Believe it or not, speakeasy, people have brains, they leave because the forum has nothing more to offer them.
If you were so all fired up sad and dismayed at what you perceived as a mass exodus, why then didn't you do something about it? According to you, you've been here since the beginning. You're a figurehead. So, why didn't you do something about it?
One reason is that it takes a while to see the perspective from a distance, another reason that is a person has to choose which causes to take up at any specific time of life. I became fired up of late because the show ended and I no longer had the desire to not publicly call out other posters for their positions.
I was complimented to be offered the post of Moderator some time back and had to turn it down because of my change of heart about this forum's direction. I have lost my sense of tolerance for certain opinions on this fan site and it's been replaced by intolerance for what I view as a negative influence and a sinister overlay to what was meant to be light entertainment.
Exactly. It's your view. So please be an adult and look at it that way instead of making up some imaginary blame that multitudes left because of a few people. That is beneath you and it's a complete and total lie.
When I came on, the forum was not what I would call lively. You weren't even on it that much.
I've read your posts and I admire them even though I hold a completely opposite view. That is not the opinion of a person who you believe's sole purpose is to chase you off the forum.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
