    then again, does it really matter that they decided to pull that airdate? I mean, everyone's gonna watch the BR thru the DVDs one way or the other.

    True, but after BR we have nothing until Nick feels like showing it, which from the looks of it will nolonger be July 14th.

    It could be worse, it could be far, far worse....just imagine if Nick doesn't air TSR, EIP or the four-part finale and ALSO releases those episodes to DVD FIRST?

    Maybe we should see this news as possibly the lesser of possible evils.

    yeah, take control of his actions by beating him with a pistol, then taking over from the inside. just kidding, i really do wish nick was ran by sane people tho.

    Too bad they're not brave enough to come onto the forum and face us head-on.

    yeah a nick ceo ever actually came on here and identified themselve, would be massive flames burning his eyes thru his monitor lol.

    If this was youtube, I would give you an unhappy thumb for that post.

    What can I say? I wasn't kidding when I said you guys needed a kick in the ass.

    Edit: What kind of hypocrite would I be if I didn't support my own belief.

    Seriously not helping.

    Everyone has the right to process grief in their own way.

    Is it too much to ask that if you really disagree with what people are saying in this thread, that you just refrain from posting in it?

    Can you give us that? Just out of pure respect and courtesy for your fellow fans?

    I'm not trying to start arguments. All I said was that I liked Nick. Is it really too much to ask that people not lambaste me for my opinions?

    ET77 you have every right to your opinion. No one is denying you that. But out of respect for your fellow fans in this thread could please not wave the "I 'heart' Nick' banner right now?

    Please?

    Just give us a few days to process this new news, o.k.?

    I'm kind of inclined to agree with him, though, Lisa. Now, I don't much "like" Nick, but still. I posted on his "kick in the ass" thread because, honestly, I get it. Nick's being a bunch of asses about it all. But I don't need to read it in every thread I go to, and you guys don't need to post it in every thread created. Wallowing in misery about something you really can't control isn't good for you, and it's not productive at all. Instead, let's try and do things like discuss the new stuff leaked, speculate, etc. like we're doing in other threads. Let's try and enjoy some fandom without (metaphorically or literally) cutting our wrists and...jamming...to Fall Out Boy. "Calm down, you guys. This much negative energy is bad for your skin. You'll totally break out."

    I respect your opinion Raienbrasa but here's the thing...I've come across many threads on the forum I don't particularly care for...but it's not "Lisa31468's Forum" it's the "Avatar Forum." We are a community but of many different ages, backgrounds and even countries of origin. We are also a community of different opinions, from everything to shipping preferences to views on Nickelodeon.

    If I don't like a thread I don't enter it and say 'Hey I don't agree with what's being said here. All of you guys are whiner-babies. Shut your pieholes and get over it."

    I move on to the next thread and post in the ones that appeal to me.

    The point being every Avatar fan has the RIGHT to feel how they feel about Avatar and Nickelodeon whether you or ET77 think it's right, productive or even makes sense.

    The trolling can stop right now if everyone would just have the courtesy to respect the rights of those who are venting here and just let them be to work through it in their own way.

    If all else fails, video tape youself abusing a piece of Spongebob merchandise. I'd put my sessions on Youtube, but my camera is broken.

    So far, I've used my Chinese straight sword and twin broadswords, Phoenix Eye Claw Kung Fu, Northern Shaolin Style, my car, and random objects to swing like in the Old ECW in a way that would make its fans proud.

    Note: this is to vent because I am sick of Nick not allowing Avatar airtime because of all those reruns of the $---y new Spongebob episodes.

    Unfortunately, threads aren't marked for "Nick bashing" like they are for spoilers, and a large majority of threads contain at least some of it. How would you have me avoid it? Also, you grossly exaggerate what I say. If I was as disrespectful as that, then I would expect someone to tell me to shut-up.

    I kind of agree with that. I mean, I don't believe that they will air episodes any earlier than July since they put July 2008 in the new trailer. I think that they may have taken it down because possibly they thought it too far away and inconsequential to what was going on at the time. I mean, think about it, it is still almost three months away, people! Maybe they took it down because it was three months away and it wouldn't make sense to have a banner up about something that isn't coming any time soon. Don't get me wrong, I want the episodes to air as soon as possible now that I have seen the trailer but you just have to trust Nick (which I know is a hard thing to do most of the time) that they will air it when they said they would. I mean, logically, they wouldn't have released a trailer to the entire Avatar fanbase if they weren't going to show the episodes on during July. If they didn't know when they were going to release new episodes, they just would have put "Coming Soon..." which just would have majorly pissed us all off even more.

    lol, try saying "Nickelodeon-Oxymoronic-Logic" 5 times fast. Heehee.

    Can I get a little off-topic just for a second? I didn't want to say anything earlier cuz there were lots of people and stuff... but now it's 3am so it seems most people have filed out for the night.

    Lisa, as a mother you could appreciate this, guess what? I did some college tours today! Yup, me and my darling mother headed down to Boston today to look at Boston University. My mom wants me to go there to be some crazy scientist/politician/who knows what. But after, since it was still early afternoon, I convinced her to come with me on the Emerson College tour. Now THIS place I could get into. It's one of the top colleges in the world for digital media, and they have ridiculous amounts of courses and majors involving EXACTLY what I do. I was so pumped, I really liked it. Mom liked it too, strangely, which fills my heart with so much hope it's making me tearbend. Who knows, I could make a career out of this after all!

I mean, logically, they wouldn't have released a trailer to the entire Avatar fanbase if they weren't going to show the episodes on during July. If they didn't know when they were going to release new episodes, they just would have put "Coming Soon..." which just would have majorly pissed us all off even more.

    I'm not on board for the 'trust Nick' part but I do agree your argument is completely logical. They wouldn't release a trailer if they were not intending to release and/or air the remaining unseen episodes.

    Again whoever does the input data for the Nick website clearly has never had both oars in Water Tribe waters. Let me take you back: Remember when yet unaired Avatar episodes miraculously appeared on TurboNick weeks before they were scheduled to air? I guess they never fired that guy. LOL
