What good way is there to 'dump' someone? Actually it was during a mutual discussion (according to BOTH sides) that the subject was discussed. The question was asked and answered honestly... would you have been happier if the question was sidelined/answered at a later date? You ask a question, hopefully you get an honest answer.
Haven of adoration?
Haven, yes...
Adoration? Debatable...
We all know here that Pete is not PERFECT - as are none of us (and that is probably why we like him so much...).
However, we like him, we support him, we like our thread - because it is downright NICE!! (Is that a bad word now?)
As said before - Pete is not a one dimentional cardboard cutout... the debate rages because he is interesting and complex.
Other hms are cardboard. Sorry, but they are - and.. futher more, get over it!
By saying that we are 'over simplifying' here actually points out the enduring ignorance of our thread... we have debated and listened, we have read and thought, we have understood... and to be succinct in our conclusions means we have made our decisions... just as supporters of other hms have done (and we all have our 'other' favourites - which we actually do, believe it or not - they're just not our first choice).
Pete has a strong fanbase - good. We are not fairweather fans.
Do you want us to suddenly turn round and say 'Oh you're right, buggar him, he's crap after all!' Would you respect us more... or less?
Just because we are friendly peeps and 'NICE' to boot, doesn't mean we are unintelligent! We all have different proffesions, come from all walks of life - just like other fans of other hms - don't dis us for being a 'haven'... would you say that to the Nikki (Thanks for all your support) thread... or Ais thread?
NO! I think not!
I seriously might get a bit militant now!!
We are considered a narrow minded 'haven' whilst other hm support threads are simply that!!
It's cuz we is nice... in't it?!
Pete will be a successful hm. Like it or not.
