Comics So, how many of you...

[Themanofbat]

... will stop posting in this Forum IF you decide to drop the 616 books.

Because honest to #^%@ing god, I am so sick and tired of ALL complaining and moaning AND SPOILING THINGS FOR PEOPLE THAT TRY REALLY HARD TO BE SURPRISED ABOUT A BOOK YET CAN'T BECAUSE EVERY CRYBABY ON THE PLANET AND HIS OR HER DIAPER HAS TO POST SOMEWHERE ABOUT HOW TERIIBLE "SPIDER-MAN" HAS BECOME and then spoil things based on things they may have heard from sources and they're going to FINALLY drop the books.

So, if you have voted yes to dropping the 616 Spider-Man books, please do the rest of us a favour and just post in the "Ultimate Spider-Man" thread or simply stop posting at all.

Thanks for your time and your votes...

Cheers,

TMoB

Wow, TMOB, no offense, but you just came across as the biggest crybaby of them all.



It's a message board. The only way humanely possible that you will EVER be able to read your pwecious wittle comic books in total surprise is to stop coming on a comic book message board yourself.


"SPOILING THINGS FOR PEOPLE THAT TRY REALLY HARD TO BE SURPRISED ABOUT A BOOK"


Do or do not, chum... you know the rest.

 

[USMC]

Oh and I voted for the first one. Apparentely I'm annoying that way.

 

[The Joker]

I have to agree with USMC.

We're all Spidey fans here. And, as Spidey fans, we have the right to say how we feel about the comic books and what's going on in them, whether we're purchasing them or not.

This is not the positive opinions only forum.

True. But the hearing the old "Joe Q sucks because I'm not getting my way" rants are getting a bit old. I don't like everything he's done either, but there are better ways to get the point across.

 

[Doc Destruction]

I dropped all the 616 books, and I post because I still love the character. Not to be annoying. Way to generalize though.

 

[Doc Destruction]

True. But the hearing the old "Joe Q sucks because I'm not getting my way" rants are getting a bit old.

Of course, by saying "getting my way" you mean "having well written stories with tight continuity that capture the essence of Spider-Man without dealing with schlocky hack-written shock value crap that only gets sales based on flash and no substance".

 

[USMC]

Regardless, TMoB is complaining about the story-lines getting SPOILED for him. Why would you even come on the internet, knowing full well that there is a large possibility you are going to get spoiled?

Honestly, the only way for him to fully enjoy his stories and be surprised with every issue is to do what he wants everyone else to do: go away. :heart:

In all fairness to TMOB, how hard would it have been to wrap spoiler tags around the

Spoiler

Gwen, Harry

rumour?.....I did until it became obvious no-one else would.....and yes it would be stupid to spoiler wrap every speculation and/or rumour but this one has some substance......

...be that as it may....TMOB and the many others that have inferred such in the past, are dead wrong in their assertion and belief that if you don't read Spidey, or if you hate what's going on, you should vacate the forum....it's absoutely fuzzy logic....as put forth by Doc Ock....this is not the positive opinions only forum....

Edited to add: well they're talking about the rumour over at the comic book forum without spoiler tags as well....guess it's time for those jerks to leave too

Hey, off topic but, i like your sig. I guess you enjoyed that SS mini as well as i did.

Dude I loved it!!!.....fav 2007 Story thus far.....JMS wrote a brilliant what-if and the art was just beautiful

 

[Dangerous]

Ha ha, this thread is funny.

As for me- if I quit 616 Spidey will I still post here?- yes.

Why?- well, there is still back issues and non cannon comics that can be discussed.

Exactly.

TMOB - Way to skew a poll... It cracks me up when people so OBVIOUSLY insert their biases and political commentary into "polls."

I'm still interested in Spider-Man, so I'll probably be looking in and posting... If that's "annoying"... then I guess I'll be HAPPY to do my part to annoy you peevish little people.

 

[Themanofbat]

It's a message board. The only way humanely possible that you will EVER be able to read your pwecious wittle comic books in total surprise is to stop coming on a comic book message board yourself.

Wow... do you ever come across as a c0ck sucker in that response... oopsie, I guess the shoe fits here.





Of course I'll still come to message boards, and I am aware that surprised could be ruined by that, but what's getting under my skin (and a few of the other ol'timers) is all the negativity that's coming out of a story that nobody knows the ending to and/or how it will play out.

And is it absolutely necessary to have a thread dedicated to dropping the Spider-Man books because of a story? Christ, we'd need a new thread for every 4 to 6 issues (or however long arcs are nowadays)

I have no problems with people disliking certain aspects of a story, or even an important character change. But obviously things are going in a way that is displeasing at least 10 to 20 people in the "Dropping the book" thread, and they're going nuts all over the place and it's ^&$ing annoying.

Voicing opinions is one thing, but going on endless rants is another... and I'm kind of tired of it.

And this thread was made purely to mock the people that think putting up a "Dropping ASM?" thread has any validity.

I thought for sure that people would see that, as CaptainStacy obviously did, but he's a bit older, so maybe a bit of maturity is required.

t:

If people want to complain, at least wait until it's over...

But all the negative reaction to OMD is &^$@#ing infuriating, especially to somebody who might be enjoying the story (thus far) and has yet to read a spoiler to the ending (how I've managed that is beyond me).

sheesh...

Re: Sarcastic rebuttal to posting a "dropping ASM" poll

2 things...

1/ I am one of the older guys

2/ I'm old enough to know

So, if you have voted yes to dropping the 616 Spider-Man books, please do the rest of us a favour and just post in the "Ultimate Spider-Man" thread or simply stop posting at all.

....that's not sarcasm

 

[Themanofbat]

....that's not sarcasm

That was frustration.

 

[Norman Osborn]

That was frustration.

I agree

 

[Spidergurl4302]

I don't mind complaining. After all "the squeaky wheel gets the grease." As long as these complaints are complete and though-out I don't see the problem. I do however understand how posts such as "OMG JOE Q TEH SUXX!!" can be annoying. There is no need for endless posts such as those.

But I think if a fan doesn't like what is happening in the comics they should voice their opinions constructively and in extreme cases drop the title. Otherwise nothing will happen to correct what's happening that they disapprove of.

 

[USMC]

Wow... do you ever come across as a c0ck sucker in that response... oopsie, I guess the shoe fits here.

Ya, maybe a bit of maturity is required. You started a thread calling everyone that is complaining a bunch of... what was the word... oh. Crybabies. Then bypassed the censors to call me a c0cksucker, when I didn't call you anything. You ****ing old hypocrite. As always, it's your way, or no way.

You spend YEARS at this message board lording over everyone like you are the self-proclaimed god of Spider-Man because you have all the issues read and/or memorized, or whatever. What a piece of work you are.

Of course I'll still come to message boards, and I am aware that surprised could be ruined by that, but what's getting under my skin (and a few of the other ol'timers) is all the negativity that's coming out of a story that nobody knows the ending to and/or how it will play out.

Of course you'll keep coming. I could take a **** and paint a Spidey symbol on it and you'd eat it up, no problem, cause that's TMoB for ya. If it's Spidey, it must be gold. Shut the **** up. You're no one better than anyone else, my friend. And you're little self-amusing thread you created here proved that.

And is it absolutely necessary to have a thread dedicated to dropping the Spider-Man books because of a story? Christ, we'd need a new thread for every 4 to 6 issues (or however long arcs are nowadays)

And what is that to you? Mind your own business, if someone wants to create a thread dedicated to how to tie a shoe, it's none of your concern. That's the relative freedom of being a member of a message board. But only if you say it's OK, I guess. What a jerk.

I have no problems with people disliking certain aspects of a story, or even an important character change. But obviously things are going in a way that is displeasing at least 10 to 20 people in the "Dropping the book" thread, and they're going nuts all over the place and it's ^&$ing annoying.

Then don't read it. Or have you forgotten how to make a decision for yourself...

Voicing opinions is one thing, but going on endless rants is another... and I'm kind of tired of it.

Reading any thread where you spout your opinion can be annoying for others, ever think of that? Of course not.

And this thread was made purely to mock the people that think putting up a "Dropping ASM?" thread has any validity.

Way to backpeddle when your poll results in what an ass you were for posting such an asinine thread to begin with. Typical TMoB.

I thought for sure that people would see that, as CaptainStacy obviously did, but he's a bit older, so maybe a bit of maturity is required.

Must be just the crybabies and c0cksuckers that just don't get it, eh old man?

But all the negative reaction to OMD is &^$@#ing infuriating, especially to somebody who might be enjoying the story (thus far) and has yet to read a spoiler to the ending (how I've managed that is beyond me).

sheesh...

To that end, see my first reply to your rant.

Asshole. :heart:

 

[DACrowe]

It's my right. And after OMD I'll probably lose interest in the series so much that I won't post here much unless it is about older stories or the character in general. But until the bomb hits it is like a perturbed fascination that I have to see it come even though I know it'll piss me off to no end. Kind of like X3 did and how that ruined that series for me.

So here I am just waiting for the bomb to drop and urging people to join the quitting.

 

[DACrowe]

P.S. I'm an old-timer and while I'm known to be an opinionated ******* by some, I don't just post to complain. I don't post in Ghost Rider, Transoformers, X-Men 3 or Punisher if you've noticed. In fact I grow tired of constant *****ing months AFTER something has happened (see SM3 boards).

I'm *****ing about what is happening. If that makes me annoying, **** it, I"m glad. Better to have disruptive discourse than silent consent.
