A sad but true thing has been posted on our awesome site and this is my opinion on it.

As you all know there has been posted on the site a video containing a user speaking out on CBM. Now let me say that in this article I have no intension of hurting or offending anyone. Anyways to best explain my feelings toward this video I will tell my story:

Even before I became a user I admired CBM for being the site that it was when I joined it kind of kicked in my Fanboy hormone. I became a user around the time Galactus started enforcing his , well “safety laws”. I thought that it was a good move.

So in response to the user let me say, yes some users do talk about inappropriate things on the site. But look around! The world is filling up with those kinds of things. Those users find them amusing. I myself don`t usually find them amusing but I don`t totally trash the users that do talk about it. I mean just because they do those things doesn’t mean they’re perverts. So my point is that people talk about those things. It`s a fact that in our modern society people talk about those things.

Now it seems that this guy wanted to be an editor and he didn`t have the right skills so he started bashing the site for it. But in my time at CBM I have not found this site to be a perverted, unlawful, porn site I have found it to be an awesome site that is the #1 comic book movie news site in the world. The site lets all users have a chance to get their work out there and express their feelings toward CBMs. And it even has a community of quizzes, polls, fansites, and even the chatroom where Big G holds quizzes every Thursday.

No this site isn`t some place to talk about girls, it`s a community of people who just love Comic Books and the movies made from them. So agree with me, don`t agree with me but just remember what this site is and what it was mad to be. Avengers72 out.

The guy most likely didn't have very good articles in the first place. It's horribly wrong for him to bash this site. And now he's saying that it's horrible for CBM to be saying bad things about him? Screw him. Do upon others only what you want done to yourself. That guy bashes this site, we bash him. I don't see how anyone can be on his side.

I found his power rangers t-shirt to be hilarious considering the editorial I vomited up yesterday morning. I wonder if they think I'm the same person. (I'm actually Asian, for example). But I think his video was off-base by not approaching the illusion of irony - it's not really worth letting them have an excuse. People get very defensive about the jokes they make, as though it were a part of themselves and not part of a prejudiced norm. Either way, CBM has no mechanism with which to complicate their own perspective. So that kind of sucks.

I'm also really glad he pointed out some competitors in his video.

@ facade

Its just funny to me. About 3 years ago, before my daughter was born, i had more time to do articles. Mostly editorials, but i have done a few news articles.

I broke the news on this site about who was playing Shane on Walking Dead, and also did a couple Aliens: Colonial Marines news articles.

Not a single one of them got deleted or replaced. Not even the one about Shane on the walking dead tv show. They were all also placed on main. Am I an editor? No. They were just quality, well-written, full articles that mentioned everything that needed to be said. Basically, they couldn't have been done any better.

I'm not trying to brag, i'm just making the point that people like this dont seek to understand. This is a news site. For news articles, who can blame them for wanting main page articles to be top notch? If someone breaks a news story, and an editor...or anyone else can, and does write a better one, then it only makes sense to place the better one on the main page and do away with the less than stellar one.

Unfortunately, some people can't use common sense and see things this way. All they care about is that their article got replaced and they get offended. Those are the people being immature.
