To me, of what seems is wrong with what Nickelbob Ultra is saying is that furries/ponies (I'm a furry) should be removed fandom's. It's almost like saying being homoloveual should've stayed illegal.
Seriously, we're just being ourselves and it's what we want, not what you loving want, I do agree that the ones that are trying to get attention from it or trying to convert people should get the forget out. But loving seriously, stop being a richard and ignore us if we aren't doing anything to you at all. I don't like the pony fandom but I don't hate the ponies, if you're just going to put all of that stuff on us when we do nothing to you, then I say gtfo.
I am not saying that the avatars could be dimmed down a bit or how the pony crap doesn't stay out of the megathread is a good thing or that they try to get attention from what fandom they are in and trying to convert people, but loving get over it. There's nothing you can do about the fandoms. No matter what, you just can't do anything about it.
As for the banning post that you stated earlier about the fandoms, that would be about %70 to %90 of the forums would be banned.
