Hypocrisy of Some CBM Users

Hypocrisy of Some CBM Users

"We need to ban so & so because he keeps spewing negative opinions on articles!"
Goes full-on Joker on other articles nonstop & no one Bats an eye...No I'm not sorry for that piss-poor reference.

Not gonna be long, I'm just in that mood where I want to talk about a problem that occurs frequently on the articles on this site. Obviously I'm not gonna be mentioning names (Because it's against the rules UH DUUIE), but most who read this will probably get an idea of who I am referring to.

So everyday, the top article contributors post news for us about the lastest on our most anticipated upcoming movies based on our favorite comic book characters. We all as a community leave our comments & opinions about the topic, okay just another day on CBM,

but then, everything changed when the negative commenter attacks.


Now this person will comment something negative on the same kind of CBM article nonstop, & others will get irate about it, hell, even to the point where they campaign for that person to be banned.

Okay, just hear me out. It's not wrong to have opinions on stuff you don't like, everyone should be allowed to do so.

"But ANewPope, this guy/gal trolls on almost every thead, threads that people like & share with each other in a positive way!"

& My response to that is:


Now this isn't to say that ther person who's reading this or every user is a hypocrite, but I think we all can agree on who's guilty of this behavior: Calling someone a troll for spreading negativity on an article while doing the same thing on another article.

I just find it so funny how many people get on one person for bashing one CBM or an upcoming CBM that's most anticipated, & then at the same when some of those same people bash another CBM that may not be as hyped as the other, no one bats an eye about it. & sure, that person may get banned, but we all know it's not gonna be for long, so there's really no point.

Now let me clear up another thing. (WAIT NEVERMIND)
I̶'̶m̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶a̶ ̶t̶r̶o̶l̶l̶,̶ ̶I̶ ̶d̶o̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶t̶r̶y̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶"̶r̶u̶s̶t̶l̶e̶ ̶j̶i̶m̶m̶i̶e̶s̶"̶ ̶o̶r̶ ̶s̶t̶u̶f̶f̶ ̶l̶i̶k̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶,̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶s̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶r̶e̶a̶s̶o̶n̶,̶ ̶I̶'̶m̶ ̶l̶a̶b̶e̶l̶e̶d̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶a̶ ̶D̶c̶ ̶t̶r̶o̶l̶l̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶l̶i̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶a̶ ̶c̶e̶r̶t̶a̶i̶n̶ ̶c̶a̶r̶ ̶m̶o̶v̶i̶e̶ ̶b̶e̶t̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶n̶ ̶a̶ ̶c̶e̶r̶t̶a̶i̶n̶ ̶t̶e̶a̶m̶-̶u̶p̶ ̶s̶u̶p̶e̶r̶h̶e̶r̶o̶ ̶s̶e̶q̶u̶e̶l̶.̶ ̶T̶h̶e̶ ̶f̶u̶c̶k̶?̶


(Okay, sorry about that last part, it has almost nothing to do with the topic at hand & it was just something weird I needed to get off my chest.)

Moral of the story: Don't be a hypocrite.

That's why i usually just try to ignore the trolls that irritate me on different articles, the only one who does really get under my skin anyway is a certain user who doesn't even really comment, he'll just post a youtube video of a tv opening that has like nothing to do with what the article is about. Spider-man article = spider-man tv opening, and nothing else.

So a guy walks into a bar and sees this man floating at the bar. The man very in awe asked the gentleman "how the hell are you doing that?". The man responds, "it's these magic pills, grab a beer, I will meet you on the roof and show you how they work". The two men head up to the roof, they both take a magic pill and step off the roof. The gentleman who was floating at the bar of course floated in the air, while the other man fell straight off the roof. The floating man returns to the bar and takes his seat, the bartender tells the floating man "damn superman you can be an ass when you want".

Boom!

If you and another guy have masturbated to the same pornhub star does that make you masturbating buddies? Or is it simply good taste?

If you shake your junk more than twice after you piss it is considered playing with it in public.

And I am out.

Its hard to not be a hypocrite on the internet, when you are always trying to find something to say.

Seeriously, does other peoples negative comments on here affect your life in any way? (if the answer is yes, you really need to re-evaluate your life...)

People need to learn that not everyone has the same opinions as them. It's as simple as that.

For example, I find 2012's AVENGERS ASSEMBLE (or simply THE AVENGERS) to be a very over-rated film. Every time I mention that (no matter how casually), 20 fanboys jump on my @$$, trying to belittle my opinion by saying things like "oh you're just a DC fanboy." Of course, when I finally list the legit reasons I don't like it as much as everyone else (it's not a bad film, though), no one has any proper comebacks against that.

I'm going to get this out in the open now:

These studio/publisher wars are ridiculous. I can understand prefering one over the other due to a matter of taste, but only liking or hating something simply because it has a certain studio's name on it is NOT true fandom. I am not biased for or against any studios or publishers, I am a fan of CONTENT who likes both Marvel and DC just fine.

I've been slightly guilty at times of slight trolling....but just a crappy comment here and there...but what I don't get is the persistent ones that beat the hell out of that dead horse...what's the point...i guess to get a rile outta people but smart people just ignore. Like the dc and marvel war....what is the point? We're all extremely lucky that the whole cbm world even exists..I remember when all comic book movies pretty much sucked and could...wouldn't even be considered! !! Spoiled brats....all I got too say.

Yep. If the author of this article and others were around back in the "old days" they would get why some people are sick of the trolls and want them banned. It never used to be remotely close to what it is now. We could disagree on films and still get along and respect each other.

Either the site is a place where people can have reasonable discussions or it's the wild west. People complaining about trolls are sick of this place being a cesspool of petty piss fights. And they're right to be.

Negativity isn't the same thing as trolling. And even someone being intentionally provocative from time to time isn't the worst thing in the world. But there are a handful of users who are open sewers of childish bile, and that's all they are in every thread. I block them and (for me) the problem is generally solved. I don't campaign for anyone to ban anyone, but I also think it's healthy for troublemakers to get a time out now and again. They usually come back a bit chastened (for a while).

Overall, though, I don't think this article was necessary. We spend way too much time navel-gazing as it is. No need to clutter up the main with it.

No offense, @ANewPope, I'm not attacking your intentions. But unless there is some other context that I'm not aware of, I just don't agree with the premise.
