Besides, it's the same regurgitated crap they spew about TV Tropes (they think all tropers are rapists and pedophiles and troping is something only horrible nerds do)
Frankly, I find it amusing they cherry pick what they want to support their worst preconceptions and then try to make us sound WORSE THAN HITLER (no joke, they actually pulled the Hitler Card in their attempt to mock us, which is a good sign they don't really have any decent arguments worth listening to nor should we invest emotional energy in caring about it).
Well, the reason that I asked was because I'd seen how well you'd handled the crowd over on the Project A.F.T.E.R. forums, which gave me some kind of hope that we might be able to do something similar with SA. But after hearing about their invocation of Godwin's Law (was it a deliberate move to show that they really couldn't give a crap about any "good" things that we could do?), that hope has crumbled away. OTOH, even SA's not necessarily a hive-mind (though I wouldn't be surprised if there are some there who wish it was); perhaps we'd still might end up with ATT members who are also Goons. Haters gonna hate, lovers gonna love, whatevers gonna whatever. Besides, I'm hopeful that things will work out to some extent in the end anyway (knock on wood).

Good to know! Of course, I'm not sure how this'll all work out, but I'll probably wait until I actually witness it in action as opposed to merely reading about it.
