I also highly agree with the 'be a good sport'.

Adding that some predictions are written in a way that doesn't welcome any deviating thoughts. Ranging from authoritative to demeaning written comments on the spectrum. This applies to practically every comment ofcourse. Since this forum is all about communicating with fellow fans and sharing ideas, a comment that doesn't leave room for input, shouldn't be commented at all and immediately removed. The person can write his comment again in a more appropriate way, if he wishes so.

I'm not sure about the gravity of the following issues, but I still want to adress them briefly:

-Sometimes a serious, albeit a bit awkward comment is received with banter or laughter, sometimes even harrassing comments. These demeaning chains should be halted as quickly as possible, even if it's sugarcoated with an occasional sympathycomment. I've seen comments with a column of 'die' out there. (Sidenote: these aren't always random contributers ganging, but sometimes people see a friend has commented something demeaning and decide to enter his trollzone and participate)

- It's a bit more detailed version of Blue Luna: The need for some people to share and randomly state personal preferences, love and over-excitement related to either a character or certain scene, without adding something noteworthy or interesting for other people to hook onto, is unnecessary in my opinion. You can state your affection or liking for certain character, if it's wrapped up in a comment that also adds a general idea/remark/concern/question to the forum and for it's users to pick up on. There some long threads with just a 'me too' or 'I agree'.

-I also occasionally see the threadoppressor, who decides when a thread continues and when a thread ends. With the quickly noticeable "I said to stop commenting", after which the contributer proceeds with another long comment of arguments, ending it on a similar note "Don't answer, i don't care for your answer anyway, just stop here, these are just the facts, no point in arguing any longer...". These are quite unproductive, because some of the topics are quite interesting. And it's demeaning.

- I also think there are some highly sensitive-tinted comments, who should be removed just for the sake of protecting that user from getting picked upon for such having such an open attitude, where he/she shows his 'weak' side. For example the most general is misunderstanding a comment as a personal offence and reacting to it in a very sensitive manner. These tend to happen quite often. We can also add the 'I am the victim'-comments, which should be removed and this might be my opinion, but very immature and pitiful. You're on the web, even if the forum is understanding, I expect people to know certain words fly around in a heated up environment, making yourself out to be a target for sympathy, as well as laughter, is something that should be prevented and discouraged.

I want to end it on that note, because my fingers are getting numb. ^^ Thank you.
