Soooo... if we are drawing lines between Team Sasha and Team Rosita, I declare my allegiance to Team Rosita... just for the record. :D

When Sasha laid down in the pit with the decaying walkers, she lost all sex appeal to me.

Bad attack strategy. They should have physically had eyes on that place they attacked for a few days before they attacked it. They have no idea how big Negan's group is or how much territory they claim or anything. The intel they gathered from the Hilltopers is fine but incomplete.

this is my biggest issue so far. they did a great job of scouting terminus before they walked on in. here they kinda asked a few questions, saw a building, and hit it. you'd think more experience would give them more caution but hey, it's entertainment, not logical.

It was out of character for Rick to lead his group into a situation so hastily especially given how cautious they were going into Terminus. I have to ask myself why is he making mistakes like his? The only logical explanation I can come up with is, it shows how desperate they are for food.

well they do say it time and again "this is how we will get food" - so he's trying to shift from defense to offense and struggling.

I dunno, they at least had a map. They didn't have squat when they entered Terminus.

On top of that they did the smart thing and a reserve force behind.

I'm not sure how much more they could have done. On top of that the mission was reasonably successful. The two that were captured look like they were captured by a group that out roaming.

I am not sure that people missed it or not.

However they had the guy who was actually in there and they asked him questions and he wrote out maps and stuff.

So I am not sure why people are acting like they just showed up out of the blue with no info and went gang busters.

Heck with terminus they stood in the woods for a part of the day, buried some weapons and had no clue what was in there, the layout, a number or any inside info before they walked in.

One should make an argument that they had WAY MORE info on this site than they ever did on terminus.

I disagree. Given the facts that the Saviors were going to kill 2 of them before Daryl blew them up and what they had done to the hill top people it seems pretty clear if they are going to stay in Alexandria they are going to have to face off with the Saviors eventually.

You disagree but you don't make an argument that counters anything I said. An eventual conflict was going to happen but that does not mean the Alexandrians had to attack immediately. I agree they had to take the initiative by attacking first, but a little more gathering of intel like scouting out the Saviors routine habits would have revealed the group that captured Maggie and Carol and exactly which one is Negan.

Sometimes the road is not full of crap and people complained how it was cleaned, and now all of a sudden they are all riddled with leaves.
Sometimes the prison yard was clean cut, until someone complained about how it could be cut...until they changed it to not being cut.

People complained how the roof could fall in at the store they were looking through in one episode.
People complained how the blood that got in their mouths did not turn them into zombies.
People complained how some zombies could cut or push through flesh with their bare hands.

Now when they have intel from someone that was inside compound and drew them maps...they still complain.

Maybe next time they will do a three day recon with satellite intel and sketch artists using facial recognition software....

Or maybe we step back, take a breath and realize....hey this is a fantasy zombie show on a cable channel and stick with the side story instead of trying to go too deeply into the details. We realize that their has to be
leaps of faith to start with to believe in a zombie infested world so maybe their will need to be leaps of faith concerning other things.

Of course...that is just my opinion....man. :cool:


If you really want a show that makes you wonder how in the heck the writers can say one thing or have set rules about the characters but let other things happen on a regular basis...watch Outsiders on WGN. That would really drive you over the edge lol.

BriAnPaiNt... Why does this thread even exist? What is your purpose as a staff member? Are we not encouraged to discuss the show and share our thoughts on the subject? As a staff member is it wise for you to discourage discussion that is on topic and civil? Way to stifle participation in a thread.

Did I tell you to shut up. NO
Did I say it was just my opinion...YES

No where did I stifle or discourage anyone from discussing what they want to discuss as long as it falls within the rules.

The problem is, you want to have your opinion, but if I express my opinion you don't like it because I am a mod.

Toughen up the skin and quit trying to play the victim.

You complain about complaining and when it's pointed out to you, you complain more? Hypocrite much?

citing the fact that stupid people do stupid things is far from complaining. he cited a LOT of things WE ALL have griped about at one point or another during the course of this show and we're still here.

if you're looking to see someone complain then you'll find it whether he's doing it or not. so at this point, it just looks like you have a brainpaint bug up your *** and have resorted to following him around like a puppy dog yipping angrily cause he smited your nose with a wet paper when you urinated where you were not supposed to.

Nope...but I am not playing like a victim with hyperbole.

But As I did say in the original thread...the Outsiders wear me out because of some of the screw ups in it.

But Nowhere did I say you could not speak about it, not did I stifle you from speaking of it, nor discourage you from speaking of it.

I gave my opinion that was different from yours and you pull out the victim card and question how the site was moderated...which in itself is against the rules and If I was half the bad guy you are acting like I am I would ding you for questioning the moderation of the site...but have I? Nope...nor did I shut you up or tell you to shut up.

So quit playing the victim card with the hyperbole and move on.
