I just think that people telling people that they aren't / can't have opinions based on something that they alone opine to be fact is not only ironic but also a little holier-than-thou and autocratic. The whole argument that "I diagree with your opinions therefore your opinion is invalid and you are WRONG discourages debate and is also patently untrue. l hope that this answer better conforms to the etiquette on here, and that people realise that my point about trying to factualise something as subjective as design language is valid.
Therefore I stand by my opinion that Binaltech Skids better represents the G1 character than this new figure. Allow me to have that opinion, thankyou.
Had you said it just like this, there would've been no problem. This is a well thought out, reasonable, and solid response. Much better than your previous effort. Though,
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. They're entitled to voice it. They're also entitled to disagree with another person's. However, they must do so respectfully. No name calling is needed. It should never escalate to the point where we're required to step in. We'll do it, it's our job, but it shouldn't get to that point.
No one's opinion is invalid because it's valid to them, and possibly others. No one has the right to crap all over that.
And you are more than welcome to say that Alternators/Binaltech Skids is more G1 than this guy. I disagree simply because the Alt/BT would've made a killer Ironhide/Ratchet. It was nice to see Skids get some love, though.
I'm alright with this Skids, I like the transformation and the weapons deployment, I don't shoehorn 'em into any one universe. They look good on my shelf? Bought. Suck? Nope.
NOTE: Realize that I am not a perfect Christian, nor do I profess to be. I apologize if anyone's ever offended by me, I'm not perfect. Don't hold my posts and opinions against other Christians.
