In Response To: Re: "Iridescent"; A Halo Retrospective (Mazz) : I can't get over how much this seems to have been blown out of proportion. : Everyone seems to know the frequent posters around here and their posting : styles. Fanella is a troll-on-purpose of sorts...for comedic style only : and light humored. Many common and frequent posters here know Fanella, his : style and sarcasm. He usually posts things like this to bring friends out : and comment on a slower news day. I don't thing this should be attributed : to hate mongering on the internet with this fierce of a blowback. See, the part you missed (the part that pissed me off) is that he didn't post his troll-on-purpose sarcastic response to someone who's familiar with this forum - he posted it in response to a newcomer, who shouldn't be expected to know FOR A SECOND that his obnoxious comment was meant in jest. And he was the FIRST response to the original poster - a position that often sets the tone for subsequent responses. As the guy who tries to provide a welcoming environment to Halo fans everywhere, DMFanella's response was a slap in the face to ME - whether he sees it that way or not. That you don't see this either makes me a little sad, too.
