It's because of your technicalities that are bringing this thread down. You start a thread extolling the greatness of Stitch; you make the blasphemous statement that Stitch belongs in the Fab 5;
Blasphemous....maybe in your opinion.
and then you start throwing a hissy-fit when others disagree with you.
I had no problem with others disagreeing with me. I took issue with the tone in which those disagreements were made.
You have been arguing schemantics, twisting OUR statements, and speculating in ALL of your Stitch threads, and then get frustrated when NO ONE agrees with you. If you are going to start a thread, at least be enough of a grown up to respect the dissenting opinions instead of making it seem like we are mean, horrible people.
Twisting statements....Legacy, I'm sorry to say that you all have been twisting my statements as well into something I was never saying. It's okay for you to twist my statements...and get away with it because others will back you up on it, but it's not okay for me to defend myself or the points I'm trying to make, without accusations of the same. That's hypocritical, but you don't see that you twisted what i said, because others agree with you.
You already quit these threads once before, and then go out and in immature attempt to safe face start a thread calling for the return of Alien Encounter. Then, when no body agreed with you on THAT, you come back to these threads to try and force your theories onto us again.
The AE thread was started because I was exhausted at seeing all the SGE complaints, and, at the time, was WRONGFULLY taking those complaints to be an attack on a character I love, not just the ride. Since then, I've realized that the contrary was true.
As far as forcing theories...I posted this thread here in the same mindset that people were attacking Stitch. I felt people might want to sit back and realize that Stitch's success is actually a good thing for Disney. Granted, he shouldn't be overhyped, but i did take issue with the idea that Stitch hadn't made an impact before SGE and now Disney is whoring him around. That sentiment was posted elsewhere. And this thread was a direct contrast to that idea. My feelings, and me saying that perhaps it might be wise to respect the contribution the people who created Stitch have made.
Or am I not allowed to post these feelings. I'm not "forcing" anyone. I'm presenting a dissenting viewpoint. You are free to disagree. Just do it respectfully and don't resort to personal attacks, and people here HAVE begun making it personal, and I've been taking it as such.
It's not hard. We have been backing up our side with facts, documented ones, and then you challenge those by saying they don't count.
No, I haven't. I'm saying that your "facts" are outside of the point I was originally making and have nothing to do with the topic at hand. Nothing at all. but me trying to explain this "remove pixar from those figures, they aren't disney, I was only talking about DISNEY characters" has met with more argument about why Pixar's characters do count.
They count in the scheme of things, but they are completely outside of the point I was trying to make and my frustration has grown as no one has been willing to actually listen to what I was saying.
Your fanaticism is becoming mind-numbingly frustrating. If you are going to make claims like you are, don't let your blind faith be your only support. The rest of us are too stubborn for that. You are not swaying ANYBODY in your arguments, and you are beginning to make yourself look like a fool.
That's what I don't understand, where did everyone suddenly get the idea that because I like Stitch, I think my opinions are the only ones that count? What does that have to do with anything? So I like Stitch? That doesn't blind me to facts. I posted this thread because at the time i felt like the character was being attacked on these boards, and I was going to stand up and be the different voice.
And I will not be shouted down because the opinion I oppose happens to be the most "popular" one. I'll stand up even if no one agrees with me. So your statement that no one is taking my side, which is very obviously intended to hurt my feelings, isn't going to make a ding.
I'm not here to get personal.
but it's gone that direction, the tones we have been taking with each other have made it so.
And nice way of insulating yourself, btw. You just made it impossible for me to post my feelings without someone thinking that I'm just being selfish and attacking and forcing others. Nice trap. I've seen it laid before. It's not a nice one to lay, and I don't appreciate it, Legacy.
I'm sorry that YOU saw this thread as an attempt to force my views down others' throats. That wasn't what it was intended to do. It was me standing up for something I believe in, and others can take it as they will.
I respect those who can return it.
