What the hell is going on in here?!
Let's get a few things clear, mmmkay?

We do not condone violence here. You can be angry, you're entitled to your opinion, but wishing harm? Not cool. Please keep comments like this to a minimum. If it were a robber getting his due, that comment would be understandable. This is a movie director doing his job. Your desire for violence against him should be kept to yourself.

Well...in that case I'm going to have to call the rest of you who are promoting and reveling in the attempts at violence against Bay complete and total assholes and piss poor representatives of our fandom and quite possibly the lowest form of human life on the planet. Disgusting little pukes is what you people are. You may not like his work and you are well entitled to that opinion but to wish violence upon him simply because YOU don't happen to agree with his style of film making? **** You, you arrogant little bastards! I hope somebody beats the holy living **** out of YOU people because, quite frankly, you all offend the hell out of me and are an insult and an abomination to this entire fandom.
There... pisses you all off, doesn't it? Offended, ready to lash back at me and rip me a new one, get me banned or just plain jump up in my face? Then think about how everyone else that YOU attack feels!! Sucks, doesn't it?
Now, the question is... are any of you actually going to learn anything from this or do I have to make my inflammatory example above an actual hard and fast, true-to-life opinion of how you folks REALLY are? I would hate to think that my fellow fans are really like that but honestly, many of you make it VERY easy to accept that belief.
Mods... you know me by now, you know I have done stuff like this in the past simply to get folks to think, to open their eyes, to view things differently and see how their actions affect others and how they are representing this site to the rest of the world. You know I do this because I actually give a damn about my fellow fans and how we are represented out there so having said this, do what you will with me.
First of all, calm down.
Second, I understand your frustration, but lashing out as you did went way over the line. This, much like the wishes of violence posts, is unacceptable behavior. You're a very intelligent poster, yet you got down in the gutter to make your point. Please, please, please people.... DON'T DO THAT.
Third, don't take matters into your own hands. We are here for multiple purposes, asking us to step in is one of them. If you ever have a problem, press the report button and let us handle it. (this last part goes to ALL of you)
I don't know what happened here, but this kind of crap needs to stop before it gets worse. You guys do realize you're fighting like this over a set of movies, right? Right?!
Please. Stop.

After reading through this thread, I'm genuinely scared that's what will happen some day.

I hope we're better than that. We have to be.
