Yes, well it was stated a lot. Though in fairness, I have the remastered Blu-ray and there's no doubt that she did actually hit the window with the baby But still. The one I got sick of was every other post trying to make a joke about Charles' ribs or him going shirtless. It was mildly funny the first time. The 250th time, not so much

Perhaps in real-life to some degree, but as portrayed on the show, that as a whole is not a defensible position. That's another thing I won't miss: the umpteen zillion times you felt the need to tell everyone how in real life Charles was an ass. Thank you for proving the point of this thread.

Well, on the thread "the more and more I watch this show", you said this:
they were all heaven sent considering the reality. dad was a douchebag, ma wasn't much better, eliza jane was a bitch.
So I apologize. You didn't call him an ass. You called him a douchebag and Caroline only a slightly better douchebag.
So much better than calling him an ass. Though I bet if I tried hard enough I could find a thread where you called him an ass too -

I never said you called him an "ass" on this thread, I was talking generically about many of your posts. On this thread you just called him an idiot. On the other thread I quoted you called him a "douchebag" - I quote your own words where you called him and Caroline douchebags and Eliza Jane a bitch. If you think he's an idiot and a douchebag, shouldn't you think he's an ass too?
If you'd rather, I'll take the word "ass" back and just say that I won't miss the umpteen zillion times you feel the need to call him a douchebag or idiot. There, better??
I guess I'm in good company with Eliza Jane and numerous other people I've seen you attack with the word "bitch" though - I almost see it as a badge of honor being called an ass and a bitch by you. -

it is the real trolls who drudge up things said on one thread and drag them to other threads and boards.
and I only bring these thing up because even the real Laura was trying to caution us on how her father really was. Her stories about her life were good but too juicy for children when she first wrote them.
Oh God. Fortune

You make me laugh deem_bastille. On a thread talking about the problem of stupid and inappropriate posts and in reply to my post talking about how maybe all the posts talking about how stupid the show and the Ingalls were will stop now, the fact that you went out of your way to comment that Charles really is an idiot, shows everyone who the real "troll" is. Then when I generically said I was sick of you in general calling him an ass, you object at that characterization on my part because you didn't call him literally an "ass" on this thread. Then when I show words that you said not YEARS ago, but only 6 days ago on another thread, calling him and 2 others douchebags and bitches and then calling me a "bitch" for calling you on itwell, I think it all speaks for itself my friend. This is EXACTLY why imdb forums need to close.
I'm seriously laughing right now. I'm done responding to you. And I'm glad this forum won't be here for you and your fellow show bashers to soil in 2 weeks. In the meantime have it. Start several more threads if you want calling him an idiot and a douchebag. Enjoy! Knock yourself out!
Peace out.

All one needs to do to see why imdb forums are being shut down is look at some of the thread titles of this forum from the last 10-20 days:
"Is Grace the love child of handyman Chris and Caroline?"
"Masturbation"
"Rev. Alden was a terrible judge of character"
"Albert was a bastard in every sense of the word"
"Was Charles The Most Beat-Up Regular Character On T.V.?"
(considering there were only like 3 episodes out of 200+ where this happened proves this question and topic to be nothing but spam - proved further by the poster's bumping of his own thread 3-days-later to get comments!)
"Caroline Cheating"
"charles was a fake tough guy"
"Mr. Edwards was a Satanist"
"how often did charles and caroline have sex?"
"charles just cracks me up"
"Charles Most Hypocritical Moment?"
And that's just some of the top-level thread titles. Most of the others have similar comments within them by a very vocal handful of users - making fun of the show and/or making twisted comments. The overall vibe of the forum hasn't been fans discussing the show, but a group of immature guys just wanting to rag on the show.
Multiply this problem by many of the other TV shows and movies on imdb, and one easily sees why imdb could come to such a conclusion. This kind of stuff can affect the portrayal of shows which can make content owners very unhappy and can also affect advertising. -

There's a big difference between making fun in a reverential way versus just being crude for the sake of being crude and/or seeking to attack or demean just to make the show seem stupid or ridiculous to people. Many of the posts in question have been of this latter type, NOT the Alison Arngrim type. There is room with LHOP to have some good-natured fun, but that can be done in a reverential way. There have actually been some good funny posts like that in the past. But some - especially more recently - have crossed the line into just being mean and/or vulgar and/or obviously trolling. That is what the OP and myself (and surely countless "silent others") have objected to.
What I find really interesting is that even with only 2 weeks left to go, a few posts are SO off-the-charts bad that even imdb feels they need to remove NOW. The post that user Albert_Ingalls (whose posts are almost always vulgar) posted the other day with a whole crude paragraph about just how he wanted to screw (his word) Laura has completely disappeared from the forum. -

That's because, even though the boards are closing, "his" post was completely inappropriate and too vulgar to leave for the remaining time AND the reason it IS happening! And I say to "his" ilk, "THANKS for ruining it for all!"

I find him not that bad. Yeah, he is crude but there are plenty worse posts and posters around. you know there is a guy who was starting polls on 'who was hotter, Laura or Mary?'
sick.
