It brings literal tears to my eyes of this whole situation.
One, the whole company has been blamed. Send this blaggart to the Dark Forest and beyond. He doesn't have a clue what he is talking about, nor who he is talking to. It is the boy's own fault for becoming one of us.
Two, he shouldv'e been able to fight back, but my own personal recent studies show that most Bionicle fans are no more than a group of White and Nerdies. I myself fall into this category. It is only with training of certain things that one is to fight back. But this is not the point.
Thridly, one cannot go and become angered about something just because someone else participates in it. The relative couldv'e easily ignored the boy instead of trying to shape his life for him. And his "masks". How pitiful, he cannot address us properly. I bet someone would really enjoy it if I went to a pervert's house and took away all his pornography, and beat the daylights out of him, just because I was sick of looking at dirty pictures. Or how about if I went to Nintendo and demanded them to stop making Mario because he is to kiddie-type? (Anyone who hates Mario hates me, BTW.) That's my whole point, stick to your rights and we'll stick to ours.
I remember shortly after becoming a member that I created a topic in GD which I now consider to be a riot. It was about how people hate Bionicle, but we need to fight back. I now realize to protect our own quarry and they will protect thiers.
And that, my friends, is all I have to say. Sorry if it offended anyone in any way.
