There needs to be a discussion universe for it. The Next mutation bigotry has to stop.

Dude, someone not liking a Ninja Turtles show is not bigotry. Take a deep breath and stop being hysterical. Different people in the fandom like and dislike different parts of the franchise. It's called having opinions and preferences.

If every stupid comment posted in these forums got deleted and every annoying or rude person here got banned or shut down for having a dissenting opinion, we'd be down at least 40 - 50% of our members. (The cynical mind might say that if that were a rule, I probably wouldn't even be here to post this message).

Dealing with irritating people on the internet is just part of life - deliver the occasional slap-down as needed but by and large, you have to be able to tune them out or stick them on ignore. People only have as much power over your emotions as you give them - just talk to the people who you enjoy conversing with and ignore the ones you don't.

Also turtlefanforever is a bit of a hypocrite he wants people to stop hating on TNM when I have caught him hating on the Nick show and 2014 movie.

I kind of wish there was a rule against bashing TNM in TNM threads that aren't about bashing it. I understand the "**** VENUS THAT SHOW SUXXORS" in a "Is TNM any good?" thread but it's annoying to find those type of comments in a thread dedicated to other things like "What's the best episode of TNM" or "Who would you want to return?" or whatever. I'm not saying every post has to be positive, just constructive, you can easily post "Man I'd rather not see anyone return from TNM because the Dragonlord is a bit generic of a character and Dr. Quease is too similar to Baxter." instead of "NO ALL CHARACTERS ARE TEH SUCK". It really should be a temporary bannable offence to troll a TNM thread that is not discussing the quality of the show.

[pennydreadful]

I don't know about the bannable part, sdp - but I am in full agreement that criticism of TNM isn't the problem: it's the lack of constructive criticism that gets really old. There's only so many times you can read variations on "This is the worst thing in Turtles history" before it loses all meaning.

When I don't like something, I at least put in a bit of effort to explain what it is I don't dig about it - I don't just bang out two or three generic sentences which don't say much of anything at all. Not every comment has to be positive, but it makes for very boring conversation when people don't make an effort to bring something to the table.

i've always held the opinion of "this sucks" isn't helpful, "this Sucks and here are the reasons it sucks" is very helpful. half the time i'de rather that type of comments over even a "this is good" comment when the person is just saying it to be nice.

There's a difference between moderating a section of a forum full of users constantly posting about the latest movie and their opinion about it and a thread that pops up from time to time of a show that ended nearly 20 years ago.

[ToTheNines]

I'm surprised no-one mentioned the fact that it was only 26 episodes (which, embarrassingly enough somehow included TWO clip shows).

It'd be like having a special section just for the Image TMNT volume 3 books. Or New Animated Adventures.

[Mew]

So we all agree that we need the section.
Problem fixed.

[Candy Kappa]

No, cause a TNM section is completely unnecessary.

[Mew]

Yes it is. Its a great series.
The Fred Wolf, Nick ect. have there own sections, and this needs it, too.

[Candy Kappa]

Um, no. The Fred Wolf show do not have its own section, it's in the General TMNT section.

[Aaronardo]

TNM was a one-season long corn-fest often laughed at or shunned by people in the TMNT fandom. Tell me why that deserves its own section.

[sdp]

What could be argued is that the OT needs its own section and "General TMNT" which includes TNM be separated. There's plenty of "general" non OT topics, and the OT while an old show is what made the turtles popular not to mention this very website is dedicated to that cartoon so for it to share a section with all other general TMNT stuff is not fair. You have to remember that the movies were included in the general TMNT section at first but because of the 2007 film we got so many topics on that that movies were given their own section. So yeah, give the OT it's own section, it gets enough topics to warrant it instead of those topics being snubbed by other non OT TMNT threads that pop up in general.
