G1 has its flaws. It also has a big heart:

So In visited this stupid topic that should never have existed just to see who necrobumped it. Turns out it's the human equivalent of it. Interesting.

Depends, actual longterm members get three days, new people who only joined to piss people off get two hours tops, because anything else would mean that the site was mean towards new members.

Continue to piss and moan about certain members and you'll find yourself banned as well. >:oP

The team of Frank Welker and Chris Latta as G1 Megatron and G1 Starscream, plus Corey Burton as Shockwave and Jack Angel as Astrotrain and Omega Supreme, and Casey Casem as Teletraan 1, makes G1 the best.

Two problems:
One, "as well" implies that the other person gets banned, which we all know by now will never happen.
Two, there is still a system of warnings and temporary time outs that have to be gone through before someone can get banned, or does that only apply to some people now?

Motto: "'till All Are One"
I dont, I think Beast Wars was the best in terms of fiction. The best toys were from the Cybertron series though, with Animated and Prime as close seconds. And I do still think the G1 aesthetic is awesome and it works really well still. My least favourite in both fiction, toys and most of all aesthetic is the Movie stuff.
