* FromACertainPointOfView: As pointed out by their player, the Decepticons claiming the Autobots were the "bad guys" in their conflict isn't exactly unfounded, as the Autobots not only sent the Allspark away from Cybertron (essentially killing off all life there, or at least making it go dormant), but have continously prevented the Decepticons from acquiring any method of restoring Cybertron, which has resulted in the Cybertronian race teetering closer to extinction. The only reason this isn't exactly an accurate statement is that it omits the fact that Megatron is a power hungry dictator who started the war and has consistently proven himself to be a genocidal monster.
