I have a few choice words, but my post will be hidden too if I chime in.
There is a balance between witty and sardonic that seems to be very out of place at this time. I'm not sure where all of the hostility is coming from, but it's very disappointing and makes me quite sad.
At the end of the day, we're all fans here for some reason or another. We should be united by that, not tearing each other down. Because then we're no better than other fan communities, and when we put out the appearance of superiority and exclusiveness, this community will cease to grow.
