Bear with me
« on: 27 Feb 2015, 17:23 »

Hey, long time reader here! Been reading for about 6-7 years. I don't particularly like the direction the comic has gone in, so I hope you guys can handle different opinions. I still read it, though I'm not exactly sure why. Curiosity, I suppose. I like to discuss the plot lines, though, which is why I'm here. I'm not in any way going to be inflammatory or combative, just not going to have the same "squee"-laden, SJW charged view as everyone else. I hope that's okay, as I don't really know anyone who reads the comic and therefore can't discuss it anywhere else.

I look forward to some great conversations!

You do not like starting with the right foot do you.

Which is not new. I did have a bad moment shortly after I joined. Not entirely sure I got that out of my system.

Anyhow, welcome to the forums.

I don't understand. I didn't blatantly insult Jeph or the comic, just stated my personal albeit differing view on it. How is that not the right foot? Are people here really that easily irritated? In that case, I'm not sure this is the place for me. Which is unfortunate, I haven't posted on a forum in a long time, I really missed it.  :-(

Will this post alone get me banned? I sure hope not!

Don't let them put you off Stella, make up your own mind after reading the Rules and getting the gist on the where. when and how of things here.

And Welcome Aboard.

I checked out the rules and didn't see anything about having a different opinion on there. As long as I'm not flaming or trolling, I should be fine. I'll lurk some of the comic discussion threads some more though, that way I can get a feel of how sensitive people are.
Thanks!

Because there isn't anything like that; the rules are about behaviour.  Enjoy your time here!

I haven't gotten banned yet, so your odds are pretty good.

I was not irritated. But I could see someone being irritated by that post. Since, you know, different opinions.

Although your answer makes me wonder whether or not YOU are so easily irritated. See, this could be a problem on both sides AND WE MAY NEVER KNOW THE END OF IT AAAAAAA
