Guess I'm in the minority then. I far from agree with the guy I just don't feel it warrants ganging up on him.

I'd hardly call it ganging up on him, just setting him straight. It'd be different if it was a newbie wanting to rehash a discussion like "who is Master Baihu" and everyone rabble rabble rabbles at it, but the guy was directly insulting the new design, claiming it wasn't good as the old one (which was good for it's time, considering Photoshop wasn't as widespread as it is now), even going so far as to say it's the one reason he wouldn't part with his money.

If Millwall switched up their home shirt a little next season and gave you a classier badge, would you walk into the club store just to tell them you won't buy it because it's changed?

I think just a simple sorry you don't like it but we've had more positive feedback then negative would have been fine.

As for the Millwall thing one year our kit was fucking awful which had people mass emailing our fan on the board to have it changed with people saying they wouldn't buy it. In the end they changed it. Still I don't really buy football shirts.

I wouldn't take that quote on face value. Conversations don't exactly work the way they do in video games y'know.

Bit extreme though that. I don't like the fact Umbro changed our badge to black & white, so I wouldn't buy it (away n third strip are slick as fuck, mind you) I wouldn't send em messages tellin em to change it or I won't buy it though. Then again, our shirts would sell regardless.

Old look was fine in 2003 but really needed a face lift after a few years. You don't log in after 10 years just to bash someones hard work like a dick then run.

As in fill him in on some of the changes, maybe he'd want to hear it from a member rather than an administrator. Again, that's far from ganging up, instead helpful.

On a site where everyone loves to curse like sailors and throw around jabs, you'd think as an admin you'd support me in debunking an obvious false claim as to why someone wouldn't donate. Donating towards regression instead of progression is as brainless as it sounds, simply put.

I too can defend myself, despite being tame in manner. After all, I'd say I earned that much. You yourself were one to judge early and recant most of it later on, remember. Why? Because I was level headed with you and in return you gave the entire movement a chance. Look how it turned out. He was doing just the same, only in a more demeaning manner without an open mind, thus it deserved the reply it received.

Thanks to Mits and the rest of the lot for getting it. You're spot on in what you said. Most of all, happy holidays to everyone.

Say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" one more time and I'll retract everything I posted, replacing it with vile hatred-filled slander against you.

This was written in place of my failed attempt at finding a YouTube video of the relevant American Dad episode.
