Maybe those who are criticizing him now were worshipping him in the past.

You're right, I should have never poked fun at Timo Tolkki's long, slender legs by portraying him as an Emu. That was out of lineI don't argue about criticizing. This thread has nothing to do with criticism. It's stupid bashing. Making fun of someone's weight or outer appearance is not criticizing, it's insulting.

In any case I sincerely apologize for forcing you to come to this thread, I swear i'll never do it again :crazy2: :w00t:
Yeah... In my humble opinion it's simply childish and embarassing, making fun of someone by editing a picture (and that in a bad way, btw) and so insulting him/her because of outer appearance, weight etc. When seeing this, first I wonder how old you guys are. Then I remember that intellectual simpleness has not necessarily to do with age. What kind of needs are those that you try to satisfy with such a topic? And: If it's only about making a joke, well, it's not even tasteless, it's simply embarassing.Lurdi wrote:Ok, we won't force you to especify the thread's title eitherAAAAAAAAAA wrote:You're right, I should have never poked fun at Timo Tolkki's long, slender legs by portraying him as an Emu.

Yes, but you should realize that most fanatics do not realize they are fanatics. Remember?AAAAAAAAAA wrote:I thought this sacred monument would facilitate any worship of Timo Tolkki that may take place among the fanatics here (i'm not naming any names ) :
If bunch of kids are making fun of one kid and I stand up to defend that kid, not because he is perfectly innocent, but because I feel that that kid doesn't deserve it and that the other kids are taking it too far, are you going to call me a fanatic of that one little kid?browneyedgirl wrote:Yes, but you should realize that most fanatics do not realize they are fanatics.

@stratohawk, I should repeat MY post where I said if it had been ANYONE ELSE in parody, nobody would have protested. Actions speak louder than words.

Maybe because this a STRATOVARIUS forum and not US elections forum? Maybe not all of us check those topics, either because we are uninterested or not that interested in those topics. But we are obviously interested in Stratovarius related news and discussion, and this thread is nothing of that.browneyedgirl wrote:There have been many people parodied in this forum(Obama,Bush, Rosie O'Donell,etc. for starters), and part of parody is the exaggeration&ridicule of a person's appearance. I did not hear any of you protest when those people were being made fun of. Why is that?
Why don't you hypocrites practice what you preach?
This deserves to be tested one day just to see what you REALLY believe.
Have you seen what kinds of things Timo Tolkki had said to/about her? She's been a lot nicer to him than vice versa. Not that all those things really matter now, I know we need to move forward. But given the circumstances I don't see how you can blame her.And I'm really disappointed of you BEG too. I have always liked you and I still like you, but how you are acting nowdays is not cool and is not the BEG I knew back when I started browsing these forums
That's the saddest part.browneyedgirl wrote:But, I don't think we are discussing kids here.

This isn't a tolkki bashing thread...see? Are you "warriors of light" happy now?
If that makes someone a human being I'm ashamed of being one of them. Obviously there is discriminatory or whatever/however you call it, but it shouldn't be the thing that makes someone apart from inhumans. And I do believe BEG isn't discriminatory, she just feels very badly against TT, which is understandable from her side, but still it's not a reason to behave so offensively. And it's especially goes to those who didn't have the same experience as her. Why to go so offensively? It's just a forum of a metla band, go listen to the music instead of increasing the stressmeter.icecab21 wrote:Beg is discriminatory but show me someone who isn’t? To be human is to be discriminatory.
