Are you "good" at it intentionally or unintentionally or not at all?
Oh, I see what you're implying...
SUPPOSED in caps for effect. ooh. I am starting to wonder if some of you were PR guys for Hitler.
I was wondering when Godwin's Law would come into effect. Seriously, is that like the only historical figure anyone knows? Why not say something clever and make a 1984 reference instead of using the tired old Hitler?
THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO CORRECTLY PARTICIPATE. EVERYONE WHO DOES NOT THINK LIKE ME IS PART OF THE PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE ERADICTATED FROM THE BUILDING.
If the people participating are hurting my own personal enjoyment of the product, then yes. Crowds are there to enhance the show, not detract from it. How would you like it if they decided that throwing tomatoes was an OK way to participate? I doubt you'd be defending it. so why let them throw verbal tomatoes that distract me from the action rather than help me get sucked into the action?
Do you not understand this is personal opinion? Chanting is part of wrestling history, like it or not. Now in my opinion chanting something positive and cheering are the same thing because they mean the fan is reacting the same way.
Did I ever say I was against chanting? No, I did not. I said I was against chants that distract from the product. In wrestling, you need to have suspension of disbelief, and to me, chants about the company break it. All that should be important to the crowd are the wrestlers in that very ring.
Obviously you feel differently, but for me it's just a distraction.
They are expresssing it differently but who am I to say this is the "right" way to do it.
It's easy. If something annoys you, you want it to stop. The dumber chants annoy me, so I want them to stop. BAM!
I guess this is why a lot of IWC guys would be horrible in the industry behind the scenes. Too obsessed with gratifying themselves instead of the audience.
Irrelevant to this conversation. I'm looking at this as a fan, a fan who is annoyed by the iMPACT Zone's crowd.
What is funny is that we constantly hear people say this is my opinion, a couple other IWC people said it, ipso facto this is the "correct" way to do things in the wrestling industry.
Nope, I make my own opinions based on my own observations, and my observations are that the iMPACT Zone crowds are annoying as all get out and I'd much prefer them to just be normal and cheer and boo.
The logic fail here is simply mind boggling.
Your
face is simply mind-boggling.
I can understand the problems with the crew on occasion but this idea that the fans are enjoying the show in the "wrong" way being such a big problem is hilarious.
Their enjoyment is to my detriment. To me, that's wrong.
I am sure the powers that be are thankful for that "problem" of the fans having fun everyday. In fact they have supported the chants and such as great compliments in interviews. Ya know why? You would have to be an idiot not to.
You just called IDR an idiot. You lose.
Cool, I have a blog? Can you send me the link? I cannot believe you are trying to call me some internet nerd trying to trumpet my opinions as something awesome.
Not what I said. Learn to read.
Mostly because you are clearly more internerdy than me and are sure pushing your opinion pretty hard here.
No doubt I'm nerdier than you. If the alternative to being nerdy is being a dumbfuck, I'll take nerdiness every day. Since you clearly can't read, or rather can't comprehend what you read, I'll explain:
In no way was I making fun of people who express their opinions about matches on the internet. To do that would be foolish, considering we are all on a discussion forum where we are expected to do such things. All I meant by my comment is that there are other ways of expressing your thoughts on a match.
Because WWE does not do it? This is just ridiculous. In fact is there anywhere else that crowds do not even acknowledge a group through cheers that *gasp mention something besides an individual except in the WWE?
I'm not even going to dignify this part with a reply.
Opposed to Dics multiple posts a day stating nothing but well-thought out, completely sensically shots at TNA .... at least in his gestapo backed opinion.
For one thing, my posts on TNA are extremely fair. I talk about what I like AND what I dislike. I do the same with WWE. I am biased towards WWE, yes, but I don't rag on TNA for the sake of it.
For another, you take shots at WWE
while talking about TNA, even in contexts where it does not make sense to do so. Look at my WWE posts. I never, ever say "OH LOL WWE DID THIS WAAAAAY BETTER THAN TNA".
And finally...again with the Nazi comparisons. I guess it was about time this forum got a literal Nazi Mod!!
Anyone can write a good match? News to me.
AJ Styles vs. Jeff Hardy.
There, I just wrote down a match that should be awesome. However right now it is nothing more than words on a screen. Hardy and AJ need to wrestle together and do it well for it to be a good match.
Regardless both this is wrestling and this is awesome clearly support the wrestlers as well.
Mmmhm.
I would assume most wrestlers are excited when a crowd gets into a match no matter what. You really think they do something cool and then go in the back and cry because they cheered the company that they are trying to boost to the next level? No, they hear the crowd getting loud and feed off it because they know they made that happen.
K. I'm not talking about the wrestlers. I'm talking about how the chants distract me, as a fan. Stick with the point, shittered. You're slipping!
I think that is grasping at straws. You were going to find one reason or another. I have a hard time believing that TNA lost a fan that was actually going to stick with the product because of an exaggerated awesome here and there and the fans having the audacity to mention the name of the product they are enjoying.
Well get believing, junior, because it's true. The crowd annoying me is one of the reasons I don't regularly watch TNA, because I just can't get into wrestling when it's muted and the crowd is always irritating me. I want to like TNA, but with the crowd's stupidity (They nearly ruined the EV2.0/Fourtune beatdown with their ******ed ways of cheering for fucking EVERYONE and chanting "THIS IS AWESOME") as well as other problems they have, I just can't do it.
Yes, I actually have two of them. I have always been curious who actually possesses the one brain all WWE fans share though.
That insult reached Afro-Ameri-Spawn levels of fail.
