DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2008 Two things: 1. Yes, Ron, it is that bad. 2. Viva la reclamation! I don't see the harm in it. Those that have stated their disdain for the project don't really go to that folder much at all anyway. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. Merging the folders will just cause a clusterfuck and possible loss of posters, which might cause Mike to sell the board because it is not as profitable. Not that I'm a fan of Mike's vision of this place or anything, but ya know. Well for the sake of the board, I'll try to refrain from doing what i'm here. I thought the quality of a post matters, not the format. Somehow I doubt people would be raving about The Great Gatsby if it was written in that format.

His smarky smark anti WWE schtick is really gettting tiresome and is getting old fast. Can a mod just ban him? He doesn't add anything to the discussion. Is he the one who brought up Benoit in the Hardy thread? Benoit is now the Hitler of WWE folder. Watch, I'll prove it. Weed-smoking hippie: I hate the Iraq war. I hate Bush. Flagwaving, TSM-noob, neo-con: Why? He thinks he's doing the right thing. Vegetarian socialist: ZOMG! So did Hitler! Keeping up? Good. Drooling retard: Jeff Hardy is my favourite westrler. He do like 25 flips a match and Wisshper in the Wind. TNA mark: But he'll get hurt in the shitty WWE with evil Vince promoting. Infant: Yeah, look at what Vince did to Benoit.

The only thing that was really wrong with it is that he obviously didn't recognize some of the guys were keeping kayfabe, most likely because kids were around.

Dude's trying to relax. I've always been under the impression that smart fans cared about that kind of stuff way more than the wrestlers do. Titles, pushes, etc. don't really mean all that much unless it leads to them getting more money. Yeah, it's a passion for some, but many of the guys just accept it as business.

Which, according to Greek's report, is exactly what Punk was saying, "As long as they pay me". Greek shouldve been clued in right there before he smarked out the rest of the night.
