Alright guys. Look. I know I'm probably the last guy who should say anything about this, but for the few days I was banned, I've calmed down and have recaptured a clear head. I said/implied some awful things about an individual that I don't even know personally and for that there is no excuse. I'll cut to the chase.
Things have been really weird around here for the past few days. I've noticed a lot of threads/posts that are a lot more personal than they really need to be, whether they're directed at someone on the forum or someone working in the WWE. It seems to be a pretty down atmosphere here all around, and I certainly didn't help matters by acting like an absolute idiot. I'm not in a fantastic place right now myself. Let's face it. A lot of people aren't happy with the WWE/Roman Reigns/Vince/whatever. And I understand that. I'm not too happy either. But let's try to remember. We all have the power to do what we want, feel how we want, and act how we want. What we should be doing is trying to turn a negative into a positive. Create some happiness, you know? I'm definitely not saying that we should be happy regardless of how 'bad' the WWE is, but I'm saying that we should be a bit more positive about things. All this negativity doesn't do anyone good, and really, it just promotes more of it. And I'm not saying everything should be just flowers and hugging and rainbows, either. Let's just try and remember that wrestling, like pretty much every other thing in existence, has it's down moments. And we can be critical of those down moments all we want, but in the end, will that make us feel better? The WWE has quite honestly shown that they're not going to listen to us no matter what we do, so you can either jump off the ship altogether or stay on it and try and find SOMETHING good about it. Both choices are equally right in my estimation. But all in all, we need to remember that hey. It's just a TV show. It's just a wrestling match. Getting wound up over something like that and taking it out on someone/something else, especially if you have worse things happening in your life, isn't good for anyone, mainly yourself. That's what makes this place so great. As Stone Cold would say, FAN has a keen ability to make chicken salad out of chicken shit. I really hate seeing countless negative threads in such a fun-loving place. Not forbidding your right to make those kinds of threads. If you wanna make a thread about how much you hate so and so, be my guest, but just know that it's not going to promote anything but more negativity towards this place. Let's just chill out and have a little fun with what we're given. We're all wrestling fans here, so let's stand up for eachother! We can disagree with eachother and still be able to goof off with no ill will, and that's why I love coming here. There should always be a chill/fun vibe.
Let's have a little more of that, please?
