User blog:TheDarkMantis15/Disgusting behavior

(Buckle up, this is gonna be a long one.)

Remember all that broohaha regarding User:GodSonicFTW, how he made a God Sonic page that you guys apparently tore to shreds? Since you guys didn't feel like stopping with the utter vitriol on that page, I chose to ban him for two months. Now, listen here. Apparently people didn't heed my last post on this.

You guys proved I was right. We're not a community, we're nothing more than a swarm of hungry piranhas on the hunt for food (bad pages), never satisfied. I thought you guys were better than this. Waking up to this? That is very disappointing. Are you people really feeling good about yourselves like this? What's the use of blasting this page when it's obvious it's terrible, you're basically nuking a dead horse long after it's been reduced to its base particles. Time and again, I've seen people blast bad pages for days and weeks on end, never giving the author a break. When does it stop? When will you guys learn that this is NOT right?

We are a community, we should act like one. I CANNOT stress that enough. You're not only hurting yourself, but hurting the entire wiki with your behavior. Why do we allow this sort of thing? It helps nobody and wastes everyone's time. To everyone who had a blast tearing pages like that apart: You sicken me.

Once more, I do NOT want to hear any excuses or justifications for that behavior. There aren't any whatsoever. I am sick and tired of watching this supposedly great community degenerate into a hungry horde that eagerly rips authors and pages like that a new one, all because you feel you have to put your two cents. Again, when does it stop?

In response to that, I feel we should introduce some new rules so this sort of thing never happens again. Specifically...
 * "Must treat articles with the same respect that they would treat other users. Negative commenting is not appreciated unless they offer some form of constructive feedback."
 * "Regarding criticism, it must be actual criticism, and not just vitriol hiding behind a poor disguise."
 * "Must not use article comments as an excuse to badmouth the author/another user."

Also, for the rest of you who partook in that mass attack? You're basically violating User conduct. Like... Where's the respect and friendliness? Where's the maturity and logic? Where's the courtesy? Nowhere, I'll tell you that. Technically I could ban every last one of you for violating those rules many times, but I'm not going to so you guys can heed the lesson and actually grow up and cease that sort of behavior. Just because one person is being a royal jerk, or their content is terrible, does NOT mean you have the right to blast them for it. Do not test me on this.
 * Must be respectful and friendly towards other users at all times
 * Must remain mature and logical in the face of conflict
 * Must be courteous when dealing with new users

Like I said before, I am severely disappointed in you guys. You're basically collaborating to tarnish the entire wiki's image even more, where's the fun in that? Oh wait, don't answer that. There isn't any fun, you guys just LOVE to do this.

I do NOT want to have to say anything about this ever again, do you guys understand? I shouldn't have to call you guys out when you have the capacity to think and stop.
