ADMIN  Forum Posts: 3077 Comments: 405 Reviews: 1 | I just got an e-mail from a Keanu fan saying that:
"on first impression; I thought your website was being ironic. A fuller inspection revealed that you were a die-hard fan." and this actually isn't the first time that the site was interpreted as sarcastic (I once got hatemail from someone demanding to know why I hated Keanu so much). He added: "The absolute worst part though, is your "Wall Of Shame". Not only are the insults very creative for the most part, but your responses or "dismissals" are completely unimaginative and exemplify incorrect English." SO. Any opinions on this matter? Stuff that should be changed, either in content or tone? How's the Wall of Shame? Comments are welcome. Thanks! | ||

It defines our enemy ;) As nafsunaek wrote, one needs to read the whole site and be familiar with IMDB and other forums before 'getting' the vibe of WINM. ;) I say leave the Wall ( ahem ;)) where it is ;) One suggestion, though : consider removing the comments in bold, leaving just the poster's name. After all, the quotes are pretty relevant as it is ;) All in all, WINM reflects you, Ani, and your particular sense of humor. Some people get it, some people don't ;)

I mean... some of the insults were creative. CREATIVE! ROTFLOLOMGBBQWTF. Put that shyte under Hate Mail, with the definition for "creative" underneath, and leave it at that.
