    I got a TOS violation(with no points taken)because "we reached the limit in games allowed" yet I created the game "kill and resurrect" first to replace the old heal and hurt madness that ended, kill and resurrect got deleted, and they hadn't taken out hurt and heal number 2(created after I created kill and resurrect)

    would not number 2 be also over the number allowed?

    2 things we need to understand.
    1. this is a dictatorship, the mods have absolute power.
    2. the mods really really don't care, and as a result don't act fairly.

    Could the Great Divide have a more symbolic reference to the show as a whole rather than the episode we fans call a true "filler"?

    I could see how you might be able to pull a meaning out of it.....maybe? Could you explain more?

    You should develop a full argument and make a new topic about it. Shed some light on things.

    'the great divide' and 'the spirit world' and maybe the puppetmaster are probably the only 2 episodes where we see aang's duties as the avatar (besides the whole 'avatar must save the world thing) being used, in the spirit world and the puppetmaster he had to save a town from a spirit, because he's the bridge between the worlds, in the great divide his avatar skills as a peacemaker were put to the test.

    Read my stuff on DA if ya wanna know what my username means.

    But the idea I'm trying to get across is that sometimes people will describe two groups who refuse to meet as a great divide. What if you expanded this from groups to nations? The Earth Kingdom and the Fire Nation refused to see each other except on the battlefield. Somewhere in the history of the war the Earth Kingdom must have tried to make a deal to stop the fighting since they thought the Avatar was dead. Understand where I'm going with this?

    i think it was there to show aang doing his avatar duty as a peacemaker, not as in bringing peace to the world by beating the firelord, but by sorting out an argument between the 2 tribes, katara/sokka and momo/appa.

    Yah, I see what you are trying to get at and it does work, this could also work with any two groups of people who hate each other / are at war with each other. But the great divide is kind of looking at it on a microscopic scale maybe? I like it.
