Well, personally, I do find this inconvenient. This post is not directed in any one person's direction, but if the shoe fits... It's easy to be biased here when you're primarily a Marvel fan and this doesn't affect you. I'm sure if the Marvel section as merged into the General Discussion, you'd be singing a different tune. Some of these comments are just ignorant. This isn't Marvel vs. DC or Hasbro vs. Mattel.

We're all collectors here and before you start slinging mud about how everyone who collects DC and MOTU and everything else deserves to have everything dumped into one confusing mess because we "lack passion", think about what you're saying. This isn't "Haha, Marvel wins. Take that!". Seriously, what are you guys, 5 years old?

In the past few months, I've been really getting into DC and MOTU and have been posting on those threads as well. Quite frequently, too, I might add. So there's only about 5 regular posters on DC and the other topics? Well you're also forgetting that those posters include myself, Tiberius, Crazy Jetty, kenm2474, M3T4L V1KING, DogFashionDisco, etc.

We FREQUENT these boards. We're active users. We post regularly. I've even been noticing that there are some new sign ups who are getting in on the DC action as well as the other forums like Quipp and ToyAddict. It's growing and now you're nipping it before it gets a real chance to take off. Sometimes if feels like some of the moderators are so out of touch with their community, they're living in their own world. This seems more like a "control" thing that a "constructive" or "functional" thing.

I used to be able to choose if I wanted to talk Marvel, DC, MOTU and everything else was condensed enough that I could pick out things like Ninja Turtles and Streetfighter and other things that I was somewhat interested in. Now you're only giving me two choices. ToyArk or look for another forum that better specializes in DC toys or MOTU toys and spread myself over a span of other pages. This is not a big deal for me to do but I like the familiar community of ToyArk. I can't speak for everyone else, but you're going to start losing some of my traffic to some of the other forums I've only just been poking my head in for a peek.
