No one is calling you stupid for liking one piece then why you have to call others stupid
Mate, people on this forum are constantly calling those who love One Piece names that I won't repeat.
On top of that, how would you feel if the only place where you want to talk about about your favorite stories is actually full (at 98%) of post saying just how trash the story actually is ?
I'm okay with criticism. I make a few about One Piece and mostly criticism that are far more hard against Oda that those who criticize the story. But this is not criticism here, this is ambiant negativity.
This thread is a proof of that
When you make a BIG thread about storytelling or when you try to analyse the story = People tell you just how wrong you are or that Oda s*cks or that One Piece is just for kids or that you are overthinking it
If you post a thing on a chapter thread = People will tell you how One Piece is actually Trash
If you try to to convince people that actually what they think is trash is not = People will tell you that you are an Oda Wanker or you are simply a clown that don't know anything about what you are talking about (
even if technically I know probably more about the craft and One Piece's narration than this entire forum)
When you insist = People will tell you that you made a THEORY once that you defended a lot that didn't come true. As if making a theory is the same thing as analysing the story.
If you talk about social subject = People will tell you just how woke you are and therefore not worthy of being listened to.
If you insist = People will spread reactionnary rethoric
If you call them out = People will tell you that you are the real fascist and toxic one
If you want to open a discussion about the political aspect of the story = your discussion will be moved toward an hidden place of the forum
When you tell people that those discussion are necessary to understand the story = People will tell you that One Piece is not that deep and that you shouldn't shove politics in threads because it can create toxicity (while being toxic with you)
Etc. Etc. (this is just the tip of the iceberg)
So I repeat:
This place is not a a good space for a One Piece fan and not a place for someone who want to talk deeply about storytelling or deep subject related to those stories.
So I will try to do one last thing to change that, and if the forum refuses to change ... its bye bye :)
