Why is it anytime someone criticizes or disagreeing with something the other party thinks they're 'mad'?

'Hey I don't like this spot'
'Why are you so mad!'

Generally because "I don't like this spot" is expressed along the lines of "this is killing wrestling" or "this isn't wrestling" or "back in my day" which is a pretty combative way of presenting your opinion and will encourage similar responses.

Which is met with an always disingenuous 'you're old' 'wrestling's evolving' 'lol who cares what you think' 'lol you are so mad' which is a real deflective way to rebuttal someones opinion.
 
Finally utilizing the ignore list was the best thing I ever did on GAF

I was completely against the list at first until this and Bernie threads. Some people are so against ever even listening to the thought that they might be wrong that there's no semblance of a debate that's realistically possible. Like a toxic relationship, at that point there's only one option that will lead to any kind of progress or relief, and whether someone thinks it's mature or not is irrelevant to its effectiveness.
 
Raw Viewership for 7/11:

8pm: 3.042
9pm: 3.239
10pm: 3.231

Avg: 3.171

They were ranked 4-6 in 18-49 and 4,5 and 7 in viewership.

The actually gained viewers and they stayed to here the announcement at the end.
That's pretty good considering what they were up against.

For me it was just that there's always a certain small handful of people who, when they poke their heads back in here, passive-aggressively troll the fuck out of everyone. So I just said fuck it.

These indie gogo fucks don't give a shit about psychology and that's a goddamn shoot.

Yeah I'm p guilty of that reaction myself. Flippy do shit is one element of wrestling that I happen to like a lot and I dunno, it just seems predictable when the latest, hottest gif does the rounds and the old arguments are dredged up again.

At least I can watch DG in peace.

Blue is a thread unto himself.

I used to be against a list too, but it enhances my experience so much. Maybe I miss 20% of posts, but it isn't good reading for me. Plus, I can always click "View Post" if I'm not using Super Ignore, in case I am curious.

He truly has a gift for speaking, no matter if he's right, wrong, or in between.

Menome is Seth, Blue is Ambrose and Sweeney Tom is Roman.

Seth is the real talent, Ambrose talk too much non-sense and Roman is boring as fuck.

As for block-lists: Never use them and never will. It doesn't matter if what you say is diametrically opposed to my viewpoint, I still want to hear it.

How else am I going to get my panties in a twist over inconsequential things?

I have two people on my Ignore List. And it's wonderful.
 
Tomorrow is the night....CWC, Nakamura vs Balor....this is gonna be good.

CWC
Nak America vs. Balor
Ultima Lucha Dos part dos

And then this weekend: Evolve in NY.

Too much good wrestling out there to dare to be sour.

Edit: Autocorrect tried to turn Nak America into Baka America, and now I want Itami to call Nakamura "baka Shinsuke."
