    Good job, Eman. You are the steel backbone that keeps this fandom upright.

    And I'm the a-hole that makes funny sounds.

    This would make a great game, "What body part are you."

    I'm not really a body part. But if we're including emotional states:

    "I am Jack's smirking revenge."

    As far as I know, so many people were banned and the rest of the fandom are trying to purify the forum from trolls and spoilers. And then, I here a lot of people are taking cover at 'The Refuge.'

    If people don't mind me asking-

    What is 'The Refuge?' I've been hearing about it, yet, I don't know what it is...is it another forum? A site?

    It's the Avatar fandom's answer to the Freemasons.

    Warning I may be bursting people's bubbles with my responses so don't read if you're the faint at heart.

    Seriously you've been warned, I wish I could do spoiler tags, but it's too big

    *** POTENTIAL SPOILERS***

    amdragfreak wrote:

    1. Even though Nick wants money, would they risk the chance of lowering the ratings by releasing actual major spoilers?

    1. You have to remember that the book was suppose to come out after the finale.

    amdragfreak wrote:
    2. Mike and Bryan would have to be out of their minds to allow a book containg major spoilers to be released

    2. Mke & Bryan don't have any control as to when the stuff comes out, plus remember it was suppose to come out after the finale.

    amdragfreak wrote:
    3. Aang didn't seem worried about having to kill Ozai in DOBS, why would he suddenly have a problem with it now?

    3. Because at that time he had the support of the invasion team, this time he most likely has to go about alone. And he's had time to think about what it means to take a human's life.

    amdragfreak wrote:
    4. "Iguess he could just talk the Fire Lord to death"- Sokka, The Avatar State

    4. Sokka being Sokka.

    amdragfreak wrote:
    5. The book seems to be written for kids 8 and younger. Maybe the content was wattered down

    5. Watered down or not they'll have to stick to then general story and the major points.

    amdragfreak wrote:
    6. The boxed set cover, at least to me suggests by the way that Aang's clothing is tattered, that this is not as easy as the book makes it sound

    6. It most definitely won't be easy but it is still plausible.

    amdragfreak wrote:
    7. The only scene that was for certain in the spoilers was the one of Azula throwing a brush at her mirror

    7. True

    amdragfreak wrote:
    8. Remember that magazine that came out before the season started airing? Remember it showed that Fire Whip guy, and so far he hasn't seemed to have been introduced yet. My guess is that it's the killer of Katara and Sokka's mom, however, the "spoilers" mention nothing about her killer.

    8.He was in The Boiling Rock and the spoilers have nothing to do with the Southern Raiders or Ember Island Players.

    But didn't the magazine say that he was trouble? I mean, he was mean, but I don't see how he qualifies as trouble.

    If these boards are less spectacular than they used to be, it has everything to do with over moderation and very little to do with the trolls. These forums don't have trolls, only weak facimiles that are very easy to spot and ignore. A real troll wouldn't survive 2 days on these forums (because of said over-moderation).
