User blog:NocturnBros/A problem with Death Battle Wiki

(DISCLAIMER: WITH THIS BLOG, I DON'T MEAN TO OFFEND ANYONE WHO DOES THIS. THIS IS NOT ABOUT WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO ME, BUT TO MOST OF US)

I've been here in this wiki for about a month now, and I've noticed something that bugs me.

First off, let's get this out of the way: I really like discussing potential future Battles with the other users in this wiki, but some of said users really like to "shove their opinions down everyone's throat". Pretty much everyone in this wiki has done this at least once, myself included, but most of the users don't do it very often.

"What do you mean shoving your opinions down everyone's throat?" I hear you saying. Let me explain: normally, when you post a suggestion in the comments, you ask for opinions and alternate match-ups. But a lot of times, just adressing a single suggestion (without even saying you want to see it) triggers the opinion machine gun, causing a barrage of arguments and shitstorms. I can recall a couple of times some users were banned because of this.

And now, before you say "I've seen you doing this, you fucking hypocrite!", most arguments were caused by AWCs, but since they're gone now, only the regular users are causing these problems. And yes, I admit I'm guilty.

"But Nocturn, isn't arguing the same thing as discussing" No, it's not. If you're being rude during a discussion, it becomes an argument.

"What are you trying to say?" What I'm trying to tell you guys is this: if someone has an opinion different to yours, don't try to change it. This is the Internet after all, most people are too stubborn to change their opinions over "what that guy in the comments section said". Sometimes, even if you disagree with other people, it's better to just let them be. Don't try to step on others' ideas so much! I've seen many suggestions that I absolutely hate, but I only start the same argument once, not everyday.

Conclusion: Just calm down for some time and let other people have their own opinions. Thanks for reading this. And again, this isn't meant to call out any particular user, but all of the wiki's users.
