I really appreciate you guys trying to take a stand for getting this thread back on track. As I'm sure many of you have noticed, many of the people who helped start this thread, people who were here back when it just Tali_Love on the old ME Forums, have left because they have been unable to keep the Trolls away as well as the people who want to drag the topic down simply because they're bored and want the attention or hate that someone loves something in a way they never could. Many of the Veterans left because they were fighting an uphill battle Alone, while we just sort of sat back and let people come in with angry or off topic discussions or insanely disgusting pictures.
And I mean pictures, not Art. Two different things.
If we want this thread to get back to what it was we really need to stand up, fight the Trolls when they show up, and do what we can to get people who are not respecting the Thread to go elsewhere. And no, just because a Forum is supoosed to be a place where you can excercise free speech does not mean you can come in and be a piece of Human Garbage just because you have the time to do so. If you have something unpleasant to talk about, start your own thread. It's easy, plus it will be nice when that thread gets locked and not this one. Well, those are my two cents. Like I said, when people stop taking a stand to keep this Thread Tali Love all the way, the Trolls and the Hateful people win and this thing will be done. Just, try to keep that in mind.

Well-said, another thing I just want to add to that:
I don't think this applies to most of you here because most of you are regulars who have good discussions about Tali, however, this was happening a lot today: random people were coming in and saying things like "Wow, this is stupid because we aren't talking about Tali" or "Stop talking about dumb stuff and get back on topic."
If you want to say things like this, it's YOUR job to get the thread back on topic. We go off topic sometimes to take breaks from talking about Tali or to get to know each other better. If you don't like that, you have two options:
1. Leave
2. Bring up a really interesting topic about Tali and sell it
But dont' come onto the thread expecting other people to entertain you with Tali discussions and not contribute yourself. If you dont' have anything to say, you're not interested enough. Find another thread.
You guys might see me copy-paste this if I start to see such comments again.
1490, I was unable to ascertain whether or not you were being Sarcastic or condescending. None the less, permit me to follow up, though I will keep this short to avoid 'Wall-O-Text' syndrom.
You mentioned that some of you change topics to 'take a break' from speaking about Tali. If that's the case, then you don't belong here. This is "The Tali Thread" and it is a Thread founded for the purpose of talking about Tali Zorah. If "you" need to take a break, than you have two options:
A) Leave

Start your own thread so as to discuss a new non-Tali related Topic
You and other can take the stand that we 'True' Talimancer seek to be entertained by you via discussions of Tali. However, we are more than capable of maintain those discussions, all we are asking is that should people wish to talk about something else, take it to another forum or PMs. This is a Tali thread, if you have no Tali oriented Topics that are respectful to talk about, than you do not belong here.
