I was quite frankly just fucking with the guy.
Tak, cool it there. If you want to continue posting in this thread, I expect you to do so sincerely - it'll be unpleasant if I have to intervene.

Certaintly there were aspects of all those series that we didn't like so we can bitch and complain about, so I wonder why Destiny gets the bad rep when it's panned by the majority of the fanbase.
The reason why this thread exists for Destiny is because the thread starter had an axe to grind, and I decided to leave the title alone because it had already drifted into discussing the flaws and merits of Destiny. The same thread doesn't exist for other shows because A) nobody is really interested in discussing them in such detail, and/or B) I don't think that such an inflammatory titled thread should be allowed. B) is the reason why you won't see a "why Gundam 00 sucks" thread.

Don't read all that much into the thread title. Despite it, most of the posts are interested in a more balanced discussion of the flaws and merits of the show. Besides, there are also the Trilogy thread and the Movie thread, which are still decently active.

Why should they? Trying to end all wars is really beyond one ship's capability. Especially since they don't have the advantage of hundreds of years of planning and powerful GN particles.
Precisely. While there are a lot of complaints about Seed/Destiny's lack of realism, the goals of most of the characters are quite realistic, and in line with their capabilities. Those with the totally unworkable goals and concerns tend to be the villains.
