Discussion History Monster / Pokemon

[[FlatWhat What?]] I never even said \\\"people are gonna make fun of us\\\" there at all. Of course they are. Anyone will make fun of anyone at times for things that get done and things that don\\\'t get done: nothing that can be done about that. One blog might slag one site, that site in question might slag the blog, then some other site might slag that site or blog for entirely different reasons. It\\\'s called expression varying opinions on the internet. Very seldom is it \\\"right\\\" or \\\"wrong.\\\" The website will never get worldwide respect regardless of what it does and doesn\\\'t do. I am not demanding that it bend over and do what I\\\'d like it to do. I\\\'m expressing disappointment that it didn\\\'t, but am making no demands. If the wiki wants to do things in accordance to what folks feel is best for the wiki, that\\\'s their right.

Oh, I understand now. That does make more sense. (Though I didn\\\'t say \\\"people will be upset that Pokemon\\\'s signature monster isn\\\'t on the list\\\": there\\\'s no \\\"will be\\\" about that since it\\\'s already happened. I said \\\"I doubt much people will be upset if he WAS on the list.\\\")

That was my point exactly: someone is always going to mock us. Because TV Tropes, when you get down to it, is geeky. I just wish it was a bit more honest about that rather than trying to be all artsy and professional and formal, especially when that goes \\\'\\\'completely\\\'\\\' against what\\\'s stated on the main page.

\\\"Haters gonna hate\\\" is almost like a FanSpeak internet term, not a phrase you need to \\\'\\\'actually\\\'\\\' use. I\\\'m referring to the mentality.
